I'm not sure how you could view this video and not think I understand how the tax system enslaves people. It isn't that I want to punish the rich -- it is that the tax system is one tool used to perpetuate the class system in our country. I'd be in favor of scrapping the whole thing, actually.

As for the Federal Reserve, I agree they have far too much power. TARP was essentially generational theft -- socialism for the ultra-rich.

And yes, I think the tax code is just as unfair.

Hope Mr Brutally Honest learns to look into the camera instead of reading his notes. He begins to look crosseyed. When people don't look into the camera, it makes me think they aren't brutally honest.

True. I didn't have access to a teleprompter for my first episode. Tune in for episodes 2 & 3 (with Episode 4 on health care coming soon) -- the quality is much better both technically and substantively.

The remarks were from an objective standpoint. The Tea Party "movement" lacks focus and, more importantly, lacks numbers. When you can point to tens of thousands of people marching in the streets, I'll change my opinion. Right now it is a few hundred folks bussed in by Washington lobbying groups. I don't doubt their sincerity and I support their right to protest -- but it is hardly a national movement at the moment.

Left think 101. I honestly don't think you know anything about Republicans. You are spouting the same old crap the Liberal professors spout to distract and mislead the kids. Just be brutally honest and stop the leftist BS.

[MATTROCKWOOD]

Strange comment considering my views on taxation and government spending are about as conservative as you can get (in the true sense of the word --see episode 3). Actually, Republicans gave us TARP and the huge deficits we have today -- that's about as "liberal" as it gets. Although the real point is that good ideas come from both sides -- which is something I think we all need to acknowledge if we're going to get the country out of the financial mess its in.

Didn't they have like 70k people in DC last month?

Sorry brother I was pissed off that day just watched your vid and the tea party bit got to me, because it is organic not republican the party latched onto it later...I did not watch your full video, my sincerest apologies! peace

[Vercingetorix1313]

Your thought pattern is so common it is worth a dime a dozen ....in fact you have let your soul become a tool for evil, pro income tax, pro federal reserve, economic enslavement of the masses is what you support while you talk of punishing the rich! Doesn't take a rich man to see to your core!

I agree 100% with your view on the tea parties.
