  • I'm not advocating the world starving. Try to conceive of the fact that others possible systems of society do exist. The current one is not the only possibility.

    Either that, or go pound sand. I don't care either way.

  • half the world out of work monday, world war tuesday, everyone is dead by the weekend.

    \it is a sign of sickness to allow the world to starve to death to meet your ends, you sound like a religious fanatic.

    \by the way nice computer you BOUGHT, i guess you NEED it

  • "Assume" makes an ass out of u and me. I have no stock, 401k, or bank accounts. I practice what I preach.

    As far as half the world being out of a job tomorrow, it might be just what we need. It's going to take something of that level to open people's eyes and get them to look in new directions. The job-money-banking system is outdated and destructive anyway. It's time to evolve.

  • do you own any stock? or have money in a 401k, pension or a bank? then YOU are the one hiring these big companies to make profits. you want to make money but you tell everyone to stop buying? stop consumerism and half the world is out of a job tomorrow

  • Wonderful video.

    People of conscience should utterly reject both consumerism and producerism. In other words, consume as little as possible and work as little as possible. As long as people continue to value production and consumption, the screwed-up modern system continues.

  • So so true. This is the underlying message in most every commercial on the air... Wish they hadn't dropped the Macbook though... If I'm not mistaken I think they replaced it with an old iBook.

  • So many people throw out computers. Get one out of them. Youtube doesn't require a strong computer but a strong internet connection.

  • This is excellent, thought-provoking gross sarcasm. Many thanks to BonfirePressView. I hope it reaches a lot more people. I have added an 'outstanding' rating in the hope that this will help.

  • Brilliant! I love how happy everyone looks!

  • I wouldn't mind having a go on her!
