I hope Richard writes a book or runs for Office soon.

The percentage of your taxes that go to feeding the hungry of America is insignificant compared to the amount that goes to oppressing and slaughtering the poorest people of the world. But please, continue bitching about the miniscule amount that may actually help someone.

A teacher's union protects teacher's from crazy parents and lying kids angry they got an F in math by blaming them for something they did not say or do. Think beyond politics. Teachers are on the front line of ignorance, laziness and apathy; two powerful enemies to learning.

omg, Richard Dryfus is a communist!! is what i would say if i was a numb brained ideologue conservative.

It just "seems" like he's saying the GOP wants to eliminate cops, firemen, and good roads. When in fact, the GOP supports all kinds of unions that MAKE SENSE. 50/50 good/bad in the world. The teacher's union for example, is a bad union.

[111sunder]

This is BS. Question: Do you think any of those cops are lefty Liberals? Do you think those firemen are righty Libertarians? Bottom line...left or right...taxes should not pay for big biz bailouts OR lazy man welfare. That's the issue at hand. We all love firemen and smooth roads Rich.

richard dreyfuss talks like the joker in batman

[rleary1]

I saw Richard on Morning Joe early today. I agree with everything he states but there are 3 problems he's going to run into.3 VERY BIG PROBLEMS! Prob 1: sniveling little whiney bitches like Olbermann will embrace him.Prob 2: Pricks like Beck,Limbaugh, etc.will dismiss him as 'The Hollywood Elite Left'. Prob 3? Americans are so stupid now with no culture left. Fat Reality Show watching dolts staring at their cell phone stumbling around in my way with no clue of the World or their surroundings.

A left-wing patriot. ... Well, if it's possible, it's needed!

@steffenla4 Actually, Richard Dreyfuss hasn't been an actor in years. He has been part of a civics brain trust at Oxford University, studying and practicing the things he talks about in his video. These are his own words.

@cameron1975williams He's an actor so he would have a natural talent for politics. He just needs a good scriptwriter.
