The government is not out of money. The government has way more money than is required to provide essential services. Government agents keep saying they are out of money because their desire to spend more money is insatiable.

The left hates facts. They contradict their world views.

@alauc Politics is redistribution and regulation of resources, go figure

We need Freedom, neither dependance nor independents! Love too! Are we capable to create such politics, where Love and Freedom will win?

@stabbed22 I can't believe you don't get it... Obviously you're too busy eating and drinking (I doubt you're doing any fucking) to practice basic cognition.

John you've used the term hate us several times on several videos. Why? Who says so? You! Well I think that what you claim you were told by the media is the key! The media isn't supposed to tell you anything. It is only supposed to report the news. You yourself decide the outcome of the story. So do yourself a favor and us as well. Stop using the word hate and the word fear or afraid or nightmare. You work for FOX so I excuse you for being a FOXtoid not necessarily the news station.

@XCritonX What does that mean? That you're content with eating, drinking and fucking?

This is a good piece. People often think non-partisan Independent means non-ideological and moderate, but that is note true. Independents are often very conservative.

John Stossel is a great American. I agree with most of what he says and I can see why competition can be good, why we sue too much and personal freedom is awesome!!! And I am a Democrat!! I have many libertarian views though thanks to Stossel!!
