Nice American propaganda from the heyday of the American Empire. Unfortunately the desire for profit has now replaced morality and products are now sold more on image than utility - designed to break after a period of time thereby ensuring future sales.

@CardinalRaker your obviously not enjoying the fruits of my labor. While I toil by the contracted job, making a measly thousand here and there, the taxes I pay enable any minimum wager to get free college, free school lunch and breakfast, free food bank and EBT, free money if you have a kid, and the entire tax structure paid mostly by the rich allows for the richest poor in the world to enjoy ipods, cell phones, BK shoes, cars, tvs and safe homes. not so in Ecuador or many places I visit.

@msaint2326 it's proaganda. it's a nice therory like most things but the fact is most people will struggle while a few will be well off.

propaganda? it may be harder to avoid competition with peer businesses or compete with corporations, but these concepts still apply. In fact great web ideas are just as good these days, as the widgets of the past. And court protection of rights means you can sue if someone steals your ideas, so you are much more likely to be bought out by the corporations than steamrolled. What a shame that these subjects are rarely taught in schools, and the view count of these videos is so low!

This was a cartoon about how america was not how it currently is.

Wow, I can't believe the propaganda people were fed in this country. And the sad part is, this still hasn't changed. :(
