Money talks and bullshit rides in a limo.

"Checks and balances" were designed to prevent genuine democracy from ever taking hold in America.  The American plutocracy is far older than Reagan, in fact it's been there from the start. Read "Democracy for the Few" by Michael Parenti and you'll see what I mean.

I am really upset with my government. There are so many people on medicare. Why are they cutting these benefits. Do you know that medicare is in a surplus. I can't believe this and this angers me. Do we not care about our people anymore? What has happen to America?

@blackiron60 I have learned much from Michael Parenti. He's observant and a very good writer.

The kind of people that use the term MARXIST in this day and age don't know what it actually means. Pray tell, do you consider that China follows ideas of Marx, or heck even the early Marxist-Leninist ideology of the Soviets?

Haven't you noticed that China is the world's second largest economy? №1 capitalist economy by 2020. And who has done everything they could to help them get there? Stars with U, ends with A and has an S somewhere in the middle. How's that for Anti-American?

The two political parties are just two ends of the same coin. The rich Corporations have the power and usage of these politicians, which we voted for, to manipulate our daily lives. Both the politicians and corporations, they have no souls, just greed. The Baby Boomers and other generations will suffer for it.

@PRIVATEAYEIEYE Just watched American Gangster...you're mostly correct.

@schmoukiz there are plenty of videos about Africa here

[schmoukiz]

I've noticed there's no talk about the African famine on this channel. Since those countries are practically Chinese colonies, guess "the Real" News knows who pays the bills for their anti-American / Marxist propaganda.

Africa is relevant for leftist hypocrisy. You don't want redistribution of wealth with them, don't you?

I think you would get more views if your guests didn't sound like they were gargling phlegm when they spoke.
