Elizabeth Warren class warfare short version w/ stills

I took the audio from her speech fom the web, and I animated out some titles in After Effects and I added a little uplifting music from Garageband.

What she says is so right on in my opinion, but I thought it would be more powerful dressed as a campaign spot of sorts.

You're welcome! One thing , though the production is artistic in itself to me regardless of the political spectrum it is leaning toward . You're not part of Warren election efforts, are you?

Angry radical ideologue, talking in bland generalities and to straw men. Nobody said the rich get rich on their own. Doesn't follow they need Elizabeth Warren or any other egghead to take it from them because they they're "smarter."

@lumburgapalooza You BELIEVE that the most functional societies are socialist because of some misunderstanding of history . Which was it? Nationalist Socialist Germany? Labour Party Great Britain? Franklin D. Roosevelt America? Obama America?

If you concentrate your efforts on yourself...if everyone does this...then you are responsible for your own life. I'm not saying you can't donate to good causes or work together voluntarily, but in working together, you're fulfilling self-interest.

@apell711

You've missed the point entirely. It has nothing to do with belief at all. We aren't picking teams, here. Logically, as well as statistically, the most functional societies are those which pool efforts into socialized systems rather than each person only concerning for themselves.

For every CEO there's a thousand equally hard-working Americans who have been FUCKED out of their livelihoods time and time again by our backward, ideological obsession with self-reliance and competition.

Taxes are slavery. Don't believe what this woman says. You were born to KEEP the fruits of your labor, not to let the government TELL you what's okay to keep by force.

By the way, for anyone who is tempted to believe Scott Brown's trolls, please search for the video "Financial (TARP) Bailout Scandal: Taxpayers Shortchanged $78 Billion on Asset Purchases" on YouTube. You'll see Greta Van Susteren (of FOX NEWS!) interviewing Elizabeth and being impressed at the diligence with which she was looking after OUR TAX DOLLARS as Chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel on TARP.

@henrycate 1) She paid taxes on her income; 2) sounds like pretty reasonable compensation for a government employee with her level of education and responsibility (you can check out the Office of Personal Management website for the general schedule); 3) as TARP overseer, she discovered that Treasury had paid $254 billion for assets worth only $176 billion, and forced Treasury to re-negotiate, saving us, the taxpayers, $78 billion, so her salary more than paid for itself.
