Our countrymen and women are too afraid to think for themselves and basically ask for a larger government to do the well thought out decision making for them. WE THE PEOPLE should have our government by the balls not the other way around. Fuck the central government, fuck the fed and give the power back to the states. The Bill of Rights, Declaration or Independence and the Constitution are now just ornaments in a museum and a small whisper to us and there is nothing sadder.

@migsluck1  True Words. Sad and True.

From a working class kid too: There are people speaking in a very divisive, 'us against them' manner. Example: at CPAC, Steve King from Iowa called progressive Americans 'our enemies', because they have a different ideas on the best way to solve America's challenges. Roads, public schools, libraries and national parks are all something we use, and aren't 'socialist'. I get tired of people trying to demonize the left, or right, because they don't agree with their problem solving methods.

America is based on a philosophy and founding documents (bill of rights/declaration of independence/constitution). If someone doesn't believe in these things, then they are the enemey. It might be theocracy,communism, fascism, or whatever, all of these things are the same, government owning and controlling your life. It doesn't work as well as freedom.

Civilization cant exist without some level of socialism, but we're already past the maximum amount tollerable, we need less socialism not more.

Great video...you could have left off Glen Beck..that dudes a douchebag no matter what "wing" he's on.

Awesome video, great music. Thanks for representing truth and all who fight for it, no matter which side, we still need two wings to fly.

The Founding Fathers were all geniuses. They managed to write a document that is still relevant today. If only, by some miracle, they could have accounted for capitalism. But why the hell are Reagan, Beck, and Paul in here?

I wouldn't say Obama's out there to control your life, but the policies he's enforcing have a very strong possibility of doing just that in his hands or in others hands.

Great vid Pukedragon. I'm really glad to see another libertarian styled Oi Punk. I have to say Glenn Beck seems to lean a bit more towards the neo con side if you ask me.

We had this same argument during the Bush years about constitutionality of the Patriotic Act and tax cuts for the rich as robbing the poor for the rich to get richer. I would prefer competent, smart talking heads to fear mongering conspirators like Beck or name calling cynical dicks like Olbermann. People just need to be objective and think about the evidence. The problem with Beck is he makes statements without fact checking (at all) and someone is going to commit an assassination 'cause of it.

@ punkdragon and @ andychrist916: We all have opinions for a reason, and it's too bad a Patriotic song is motivating us to bicker, but that can has already been opened up:

The problem I have is the claim "Obama is out to control your life!". There is no evidence of it, and by saying it doesn't provide logical or objective analysis of the political situation (power and choice). Now, if you said mandating people to buy insurance is unconstitutional, that illustrates a good point.
