Congresswoman Maxine Waters displayed not only her utter ignorance about supply and demand, but made a very revealing verbal gaffe

"And guess what this liberal will be all about? This liberal will be all about socializing,uh, umm- will be about, basically. taking over."
1:10 into the clip, Ms. Waters accidentally says what the far left of her party believe, that the government has the right to seize control of private industry. If Democrats truly were interested in reducing the price of gasoline, they'd allow the oil companies to drill in ANWR and off our gulf coast to increase their output of oil and gas and improve our energy independence. But liberal extremists don't really want that. They'd rather use the American citizens' plight to demagogue their way to more power and bigger government.

  • Seattle Guy...you posted a big "but". You must realize that human nature and greed are not the limited to corporations and business men. Government officials have the same traits, only we also grant them a monopoly on violence (arrests, detainment and war). Combining the means of production with the violence monopoly leads to tyranny.

  • The people behind Maxine Waters are snickering, but think about what has occurred since then:

    The federal government has taken over GM. The federal government has taken over Chrysler. The federal government has purchased large stakes in Bank of America, Citigroup, and several other major banks. And now the federal government is on the road to managing the entire health care industry.

    Maybe Maxine Waters was just (accurately) predicting the future.

  • I lol'd

  • NO! The word that dumb black version of a dumb blond was looking for was NOT nationalist but SOCIALIZING. Did you see those around her almost get whiplash when she choked on it?

  • Wow how do we ever let a person like Waters come into office. She doesn't even think before she makes such idiotic statements. What is this country coming to??????? To allow this kind of behavior. Whew. America how low are we sinking????

  • Why is it the women elected into Ca politics always come out sounding like they are complete idiots? This stupid shit out of her mouth and another female with "we won't know whats in it till we vote for it" What makes someone from CA eligible to vote? Their heart is beating but the brain is dead?

  • I bite my lip on this aside from saying that I bite my lip on this. Idiots, both sides.

  • Thats exactly what Hugo Chavez did and look at that shithole now. I don't want the government involved in anything because everything they touch, they screw up. I agree with the Shell exec. Maxine Waters can go fuck herself. Someone please explain to me why California keeps on voting for these total pieces of shits?

  • Maxine Waters.....A true blue Marxist.
