  1. "how they lack the ability to accept opposing points of view" Look in the damn mirror Mr. drag back the entire nation against their will back to the 17th century. Progressive War Machine - (LMAO!) talk about a major oxymoron, so anti-war protestors are actually pro war, (seesh) What the hell have you been smoking.

  2. Well that not how things work now does it, the damn courts say corps are people, which I strongly oppose but its law now anyway.

  3. Smart lady... 0 dislikes that means the crazy defenders of the oligarchs the Liber/Propertarians haven't found this vid yet. I can already hear their insults... The S word, The C word and of course the M word. as she blasted, without mercy their heroes.

  4. Thus to conclude my discussion: perfect liberty and total economic freedom are 100% incompatible! In order to have one the other one 'must' give way some. And from looking at the core value in the dogma of far right conservative and libertarian dogma, It is very easy to see which variable will be the one to give way...

  5. I have that feeling as well, and mainly due to the extreme corruption and ossification of our entire political system.

  6. I really have no beef with the these two words being added, however I have 'no' respect for Mccarthyist/ J-Bircher crap that was the reason for adding them.

  7. These parents need to shut off Faux News period!!

  8. I haven't watched MSNBC or listened to NPR in years. (Scoff) Progressive my left foot!!

  9. "They value money more than human life!" HAHAHAHAHA!! That's rich, coming from these Ayn Rand greed worshipers!!

  10. Unfortunately, it is just a short term fix. However what we need is a movement that goes after the debt in a less controversal way, aka: cutting pork and corruption, rather than demonizing poor and minorities. That i'd support.

  11. I sure hope you're right...

  12. "Gott mit uns" - God is with us. All they need now are the caps with the skull and crossbones in the middle of them.

  13. I figured out this rotten scam out by the time I was a teen... The Rethugs never shut up about how awful government is, then when they get in power they wreck everything, and then have the absolute nerve to then tell you. "See, government doesn't work." In my book that is direct sabotage and nearly a form of terrorism! The dems suck, but I gotta give them one thing, they still give the rhetoric and or veneer that they believe in good/ working government. The Rethugs? Hell, that's been long gone ever since that slimy, backstabbing B actor coroprate conman!!

  14. Creepy... But at least the terminator want to sell us junk here, and not kill us.

  15. Still our Right Wing Libertarians/Propertarians, (while small in number) are without a doubt the most annoying and disgraceful appoligists for Neoliberal dogma. AKA :(Austrian Schoolers)

  16. I remember when I first learned of RW Libertarianism, I thought it was a sick joke. Then was horrified and disgusted that people actually believed in this psychopathic crap!

  17. Both suck! but the GOP's got a far worse track record.

  18. Hate to break to to you but all human societies are a blend of these two ideologies. The USSR showed what happens when you totally ignore the first one. Your RW Libertarian, teabag nonsense ultimately envisions a identical dystopia due to totally ignoring the latter. A fool is the one to goes to one extreme and think it will deliver utopia, no matter which side. Which is why state communism or RW libertarian strict dogmas has been rejected by practically very 1st world nation.

  19. Not to mention a labor shortage from the nations founding to the 1970's that lured so many immigrants here with the promise of continuously rising wages.

  20. Exactly Thom! When those with money and power commit treason, this country has a piss poor record of administering proper justice. In the end, this flaw of cowardice could be the death knell for this nation as a democratic republic.

  21. It's the old mantra, "United we stand, divided we fall." And boy! are we divided now!!...

  22. Amazing! RW humor that actually is funny. I thought it didn't exist.

  23. Reagan was such a crook!! I get SO sick of the media PR campaign put on by these rotten corporatist think tanks and spew the incessant propagandistic crap that he was our greatest president... HA! greatest president my ASS!!!  The only reason they spew this crap is because he handed the keys to the government to the corporations and Wall Street on a silver fucking platter, and they love him for that!... And thus, they've worked to brainwash the middle and lowers classes to worship at the altar of this backstabbing conman!!!
    1
  24. Thom nailed it!!! The so-called 'small government (tm)' talking points in this country are such a massive load of utter and absolute CRAP!!! As these plutocratic scumbags NEVER! follow these strict principles that they ram down the middle working classes throats! It's always been with these jerks. "Big government for me and not for thee!"

  25. This story is so horrible!! I mean even the thought of anyone having sex with that thing is vomit inducing!!

  26. RW Libertarianism is such a twisted joke of an ideology! DX

  27. Very interesting argument. I didn't know they're was so much differentiation between the words capitalism and capitalist.

  28. Ginger Lad Agreed, I think liberals who propose this have good intentions, it's just a really drastic, bad idea.

  29. The Buckley case gave birth to this anti-democratic, Neoliberal cancer!! Hopefully, the millennials will the be the generation that kills it!!

  30. Sound like Illinois is safe from the rabid teabaggers... for now... (As for corruption and debt... this is Illinois and Chicago were talking about... When have they 'not' had this stereotype, there's a reason they call it 'Chicago politics')

  31. Cause they don't even believe in it!! They' sabotage' it then have the absolute nerve to then go on how the government doesn't work!? The Repugs are no better than the mafia with these utter thug tactics!! As for the Dems, they 'self' sabotage!

  32. Same here... It feels like dealing with a nation of alcoholoics.

  33. The nation's infrastructure is literally falling apart, yet the cons won't lets us do anything about it. Instead, they want even more austerity combined with massive tax cuts for the top earners so that they'll supposedly create jobs?  yeah right...

  34. I remember Family Guy made a joke about this in an ep. India insults Pakistan, then the nukes fly and all of Asia and Middle East turns into a game of Defcon! 'They did not need much' Stewie flatly remarked.

  35. Keith Kevelson Very informative comment. Thanks for the info.

  36. I only have soda maybe two times a week or so.

  37. John.F Kennedy Anything's better than Snott Wanker... I'll vote for Hillary just to keep that disgusting crook OUT of the WH!
    1
  38. Nicholas DiMoro I understand why you don't want to vote for Hillary, but if Bernie doesn't make it I'll vote for her for one primary reason. To keep SCOTUS from going batshit right wing. I mean... look at all the damage they've done with vile decisions like Citizens United and Mccutcheon. If some teabagging crook like Snott Wanker were to get in the WH. We could see a more Thomas's and Scalia's on the bench and we'd be stuck with these teabagging plutocratic bastards till the day they croak. They could inflict massive damage of the American people for decades!... At least with Hillary I'd know she'd appoint more Kennedys and Roberts, still neoliberal crooks but not teabaggers. However, I don't want to do doomsday talk, I'm am really REALLY rooting for Bernie to win the Dem nominee... It's time to take a sledgehammer to this plutocracy, started under (the senile crook) Reagan then successively built up with every coming President... And quite frankly for me... 'Citizens United' was the last straw!

  39. That whole platform reeks of inevitable totalitarianism, it's absolutely asinine to think that such reforms could be passed without massive social upheaval; in which the plutocrats would inevitably use massive force to defend their sick dystopia. So much for that NAP nonsense.

  40. Naomi Klein was right... The quagmire in Iraq was the resultant outcome of the crooked neoliberal polices of disaster capitalism rammed down their throats after the 2003 invasion.

  43. +rationalmartian I think these corporate sociopaths are insane and foolish to push for these policies. Cause in the long term their pushing for their own destruction!

  44. Nah! If Trump gets in it would be so bad, Trump isn't as horrible as many progressives think he is. Hell, I loved how in the last debate he insulted all the lobbyist scum fucks in the audience, proudly proclaiming that he doesn't need their dirty money!! Now if Turd Cruz gets in... YUCK!!!... I'm then moving to Germany ASAP!!

  45. +ThatBoy Marcus What? Why are you calling me racist? I detest his racist rhetoric and all the bile spewed against Mexican and Muslims. But he is the only candidate on the GOP side that has attacked the corruption in the system. The others are just peachy with it. But it doesn't matter... I'm supporting Bernie and really don't think the GOP has a chance this year.

  46. +ThatBoy Marcus Which one do you think is worse? Trump or Turd Cruz? Cruz scares me 10X worse than Trump!

  47. Hotel Villa Bahia Hey, I say that as a compliment... Seder is always cracking jokes while is staff laughs in the background. It's one of my favorite parts of his show ;)

  48. +Mylinda Grim Yeah I know, and I support Bernie 100%. But Trump is the only GOP candidate in decades who's had the moxie to crap on these elements of Neoliberal orthodoxy! However, can you trust him to actually do something about these issues?.. Not so much..

  49. small HandFF And American right-wingers still have the unparalleled stupidity to keep calling him a fricking communist!?

  50. Rail is one of those variables in which that I really don't care if its privatized or not, I see nothing wrong with it.
