When the government starts to pick winners and losers, as Ayn Rand wrote, people quickly learn that the currency of the land is relationships with those in power. Not content to do this only in real life, the administration is bringing this new play mechanic to the world's largest online role playing game, World of Warcraft. Here's a preview of the new "World of Whitehouse" upgrade.
At http://youtube.com/bulletpeople join us Thursday, July 14th at 8 p.m. for our Mock the Spending 24 hour marathon: 100 videos in 24 hours.
Our two goals:
#1: Make 100 videos in 24 hours that mock the things in Washington that require mocking.
#2: Submit it to the PowerLine Prize contest.
Got an idea for a video? Go to http://PowerLinePrize.com to try to win the prize yourself. Or if you don't want to make a video, but have an idea worth mocking, send it us and we'll do the work (And we will add it to our submission.)
I love the subtleties in this video! The iPhone rings when he's talking about "competition-making things better...improving things" and the PC gets a blue screen of death right as he says "the type of software he's grown to expect from our government." BRAVO!!!!

Terrible Analogy. Wow is basically communism, everyone makes an equal amount of money for their work, and have the exact same opportunities. If one was to accumulate too much power and exploit beginners, the gamemasters (Government) would interject and patch the game (Regulations) to prevent that from happening.
