The tea party is like the republican party in the sense where it used to be cool but in recent days has been hijacked by neocons and evangelicals.

@johnnyjohnnyfurther can you name me a current country that has banned guns that doesnt have a crime problem? and dude solvenia was also a police state.

I have no problem with guns for hunters and women at atm's, etc ...

but this guy is misleading when he uses his particular examples of unarmed societies such as 1930's germany, etc ...

he is misleading in that he does not mention the hundreds of other countries that DO NOT ALLOW guns and have NO crime OR insane violent govt's.

Slovenia had no guns, no crime, near 100% employment, 0 stress, great health during its later-Tito years (the post-WWII Tito years were not so nice).

If I may take issue with anything else you say, I can agree 100% with what you say here. We are only free if we can fight to keep that freedom, sadly as there is no end to the cartoon characters lined up to take it away.

I feel like we need to raise captial gains to 25% and take the extra 10% and put it towards our debt. I feel the situation of our budget deficit is so great we need action on both fronts, so our children don't have to pay for our mistakes and that we become more finacially strong as a nation.

@dbonekilla

If the tea party could comprimise with the obama administration 70% tea party 30% obama, then i think we could move in the right direction. Sometimes inaction can be worse than even a bad decision. We definatly need major change, I advocate a dramatic reduction in spending, we need to take on social security however no one has the balls to because its political suicide. we need leaders that are not concerned with their careers as much as the greater good. But at the same time

Very interesting, very reasonable and logical in most aspects. I think this guy actually moved me from a moderate to somewhere between moderate/conservative. Fundamentally he is making sound points, my only apprehension is that i feel bush and his policies may have caused the mess we are in today, and before bush we saw a time of prosperity with clinton. As a small business owner in renewable energy.... to think i lobbied for cap and trade seems silly now.

@SquidgyMcGee Don't apply your self-loathing to other, more rational people. Not everyone is so unstable.

Right on target (no pun intended)...this series of vids is EXACTLY what this country needs...a rebirth of our SELF reliance and SELF governance and ENTREPRENEURIAL savvy.
