  • That was a good video... are you intentionally changing the language you use?

  • What do you mean by that?

  • I don't know,maybe it is me, but you seem a lot less belligerent to my free marketer ears.

  • Ahhh I think it's just a natural progression. I've made nice nice with a number of the free markateers over the past number of months. We agree to disagree. Still great people in my opinion.

  • I think nationalizing the oil industry would be quite detrimental. It's the drive for profit that spurs innovation.

  • The last 50 years of American history sort of undermines that myth. Every major technological innovation of the last 50 or 60 years has been developed in the public sector. So much for the profit motive. I realize puppyhate already said this...but I'll repeat it anyway.

  • So-called "green capitalism" is an oxymoron, no matter the size. Capitalist models require constant consumption to stay afloat, thereby assuming infinite resources to sustain their production. True sustainability is only possible in a non-capitalist society where capital is not the driving force. I don't agree with the primitivist notion that we need to be hunter-gatherers either, but becoming more self-reliant is a necessity.

  • The green skin and red eyes are freaking me out, haha.

    Love to see a new video up, and a good one at that.

  • I'm all for nationalizing the oil industry. Oilfields shouldn't be owned by anyone except the population as a whole, in this specific case I oppose the ownership by the workers working in oil industry. When it comes to rare non-reproducible resources I oppose the ownership of any minority, even if that minority is a small section of the working class.

  • oil products are also

    in your shampoo and such.

    what i don`t get, is, oil is destillated and

    the products in between are also sold.

    stuff thats filtered out still is being sold to the chemical- industry.

  • Most Americans want nuclear power plants near them:

  • There does not need to be a net-energy gain in order for hydrocarbon extraction to be economical. Energy can be added via nuclear fuel.

  • Buddha we should talk about collaborating on a video, I just got started on youtube, but that shouldn't be any kind of indication of my knowledge.

  • great video...Down with Capitalism!!!
