Robert Reich Sums Up Evil Lies that Dupe Poor, Stupid Schiff Teabaggers

The US is not broke nor anywhere near it. The current US GDP-per-person is over $45,000.

The idea that we can't afford to pay off a national debt that is about as great per-person(eg. also ~$45,000), when we have decades in many cases to repay and at the lowest borrowing rates in the world is ludicrous.

You Teabagger cultists are just slaves to the sociopathic conservative economic interests, lining up and holding the chains you'll be locked into with the widest of smiles. You're all economic Uncle Toms.

What is so sad about this video and the sentiments in much of the comments is that both Mr. Reich and the comments are correct about corporate greed and declining wages, but what they fail (or refuse) to understand is this is because of the government. Who writes the regulations? Who has the lobbying power? Who goes to the same cocktail parties as the politicians? The fat cats! As long as the government has influence to sell, it will sell it. Shrink it, and you shrink the fat cats.

No, you're quite wrong. It's the very absence of government that's the problem. It's automation that has ended most higher paying jobs in this country, contrary to what idiots in the press focus on. The very value of most human labor is diminishing, as the gains from automation go primarily to the owners and management of the capital. A wage subsidy would be the right solution.

I didn't hear one point supported by evidence... conjecture this, dogma that, "I'm a snooty professor!" this. I don't care who you are or where you came from, support your claims with evidence.

@aseacucumber07

Well, look up the evidence then. I have it in some of my other uploads.

@jerryvalez Lobbys have to go. We can have democracy or we can have lobbys but we cant have both.

The war on the middle class began in the 1970's with the passage of right-to-work laws that were nothing but the negation of collection bargaining rights.

@Andsormida01 The market would enslave you if it weren't for laws. Don't be naive.

@aseacucumber07 Have you been living in a cave for the last 20 years? He is citing common sense.
