But it is always fun to through logic in their faces like a nice juicy pie.

2. Every time it's tried........................
free market capitalism fails. History has a liberal bias, along with reality.

3. Any person with the capacity to reason
knows that "free market capitalism" is the most unfair system known to mankind. Anyone who cannot realize that deregulation over the last 30 years has destroyed America and is currently destroying our world via globalization, is wealthy (and they KNOW) or wearing blinders. Obama said, "make-me." We have millions of people who realize (and live) the stark realities of free markets, but they are not organized. We must organize. It is the only way we stand any chance of making the elitists aware of their vulnerability. We out number them millions to one. Their answer is to cut spending on social programs (the only thing between many of us and the streets), how about raising the income tax to the levels we had in 1970? or 1960.1950...? Was America a "Socialist" country then? Corporations paying income taxes again, windfall profit taxes...that would end a lot of the economic and wealth distribution inequities we have, and in a way that is much more fair than raping the already shell shocked citizens who have been bled dry for corporate and thieving banksters. We must unite

4. free market would have a better chance if it included cleaning up afterwards part of the price
but it always comes down to CLASS WARFARE.....

and the only reason the TEABIRTHERS don't get it..... the RICH have succeeded in making the TEABIRTHERS think they are on the same side

6. Yes I am attacking the messenger for a reason
This guy has no integrity, please look at his past he is not progressive he is libertarian.

Look at his antics with kissing guys on camera and cutting arms.

Look at gun play on camera.


be pissed! throw bricks, but I am trying to protect this site.


The Freepers and right wing would tear this place a new one if this person was to become a regular.

All I am saying he has a past and a very immature one , he needs to go to college and grow up.

7. He's a comedian not a politician.
You don't expect comedians to have perfect family values. In fact you expect them to shock you. Its no different with this guy. Also you claim he is just a libertarian, but how many libertarians make videos claiming free market capitalism fails? And whats wrong with him kissing guys on camera?
