  4. man, you got that right. although i appreciate youtube's wide range of video content, (i hate the damned MEGA-commercialization though) the uploaders have a tendency to use titles that are sensationalistic, immature and even downright fraudulent. personally, i'm not looking for childish, manipulative or tabloid content. i think they AND youtube need to grow up and start treating us ALL like adults. man, that would be refreshing as hell. i'm an uploader, a content provider, and i don't pull that crap.

  5. that's because Tesla was socialist. he actually cared about improving the human condition. not a good business man. but a WONDERFUL human being! what was just described here has a name, its called "capitalism." if companies didn't lie, cheat and steal they wouldn't make a profit. so exploitation becomes the basis of the system. exploit labor, the consumer and society as a whole so rich people can get richer. capitalism is consumer based and wage based economics. the capitalists pit the 2 groups against each other. which do we favor? employment or comsumer rights? in the end neither is favored in favor of PROFITS! the environment? screw it! profits are more important. poverty? who cares. profits are more importnant. livable wages and worker safety? not priorities. PROFIT for the rich is the only priority. consumer protections against monopolies, cartels, profiteering, fraud and theft? forget about it. consumerism is MORE IMPORTANT than the consumer. society exists ONLY to serve the corporate will. the medical industry pulls the same crap. they raise the cost of their services so high it requires third parties, such as insurance companies or govt programs, to pay for it. the industry SHUNS medical cures in favor of medical treatments. why charge the sick and infirmed for a one time cure when you can charge them for a LIFETIME of treatments? the internet, with its "clouds" and memberships demand lifetime payments of their patrons. you can't hardly buy anything outright anymore. you now must RENT products and pay monthly fees for their use. guess what? CAPITALISM IS A SCAM! that's the WHOLE point of it!

  6. uummm, very interesting video. didn't understand any of it. i wonder if anyone actually understands any of this nonsense. i think everyone's got it wrong. just because you can get something to work doesn't mean you can determine why it works. it works because it works. who gives a damn why. but i do know why energy doesn't flow FROM a building that's recieving energy from a power plant. its because the source, the power plant, PRODUCES energy. the building DOESN'T! it recieves and uses the enegy. kinda figured anyone past the third grade should be able to figure that one out. and i passed third grade just last year. so there.

  7. your english is excellent and so was your comment. i think the answer to your question is that in a reality with infinite possibilities there's an infinite number of parallel universes EXACTLY like ours as well as an infinite number that are different in an infinite variety of ways. each different scenario has an infinite number just like itself. so the whole thing is really rather silly and pointless, but fun to think about. my question is, since there are infinite realities containing every imaginable and possible outcome, are their parallel universes that contain NO parallel universes?

  8.  @Sjaella  ... this theory doesn't rule out free will. in fact it supports it. its our free will that makes us choose different options in different universes. but at the same time it also relies on how environment also affects who we are and who we become. because if in an alternate universe you're born into different social conditions, or even different parents, it'll have an effect on your character development. its also a matter of timing and luck. in each universe our timing may be off just a fraction of a second that could have an effect on any decision. so free will, environmental conditions and luck and timing, alone or in different combinations, all play different factors in each different universe. did you ever see the star trek episode where spock and kirk turn evil? they were replaced by their evil doubles from an alternate universe. and hilarity ensues.

  9.  @Sjaella  ... there are 2 movies free on youtube, "coherence" and "triangle," that deal with this subject. their both really good, check 'em out.

  12. does anyone know the "Wyndham hotel corporation" owns La Quinta, Ramada, Microtel, Days Inn, Super 8, Howard Johnson and Travelodge? giant corporations have taken over the fast food, rental, mortgage, insurance and medical industries? they hike up prices and implement discrimination polices against smokers and the poor. about 20 corporate conglomerats OWN EVERYTHING in this country INCLUDING THE GOVT, your employer, your local retailer AND YOU!! and people wonder why things are such a GODDAMNED MESS in this country? its because NONE OF YOU are doing anything to END your own corporate slavery!

  13. everyone knows corporations have only our best interests at heart. they tell us this in EVERY commercial and advertisement they bombard and firehose us with 100s of times a day. we're not ruled by govt but by corporations who own the govt and they own YOU! corporations control our daily lives more than any other entities on earth. and they'll lie, cheat, steal, kill and risk our health and welfare in their endless pursuits of higher profits. isn't capitalism GREAT?
