Oct 30, 2008 - ...Are you trying to bash capitalism? The biggest reason we have economic downturns and recession scares is because people are financially illiterate. Support your government, but keep it small. As for the drugs thing, weed will be legalized very soon, it's inevitable, give it a little more time. Don't let Obama get you with socialist ideals about spreading the wealth. The wealthy get tax cuts just like Costco members get coupons and discounts, you spend more you get discounts.

MooseOfReason Says:

Oct 31, 2008 - I just disagree with the "Support your government" part. They don't need our support. They need to fear us.

Oct 31, 2008 - Dude, you're either not paying attention to what this is about or you're not especially bright. Or (giving you the most credit possible), maybe you just don't express yourself well. This video isn't bashing capitalism. It's bashing those who attack capitalism. It's taking just the opposite approach than socialism. It's attacking the idiots who want to lead us further down the socialist path, both Democrats AND Republicans. Get it now?

xkingxgrimx Says:

Oct 31, 2008 - Yeah, I just didn't see where it was coming from. I understood it was satire, but I got too caught up in it I guess and confused myself. I tried to ask my question and then give my commentary separately. Thanks for being semi-civilized in you response.

The reason your Economy is so fucked up is because people have been spending money they haven't got! Do you REALLY NEED a new 4x4 every year just to keep shareholders happy? All that money your Parents spend on Education and you just don't get it! ROFLMAO.!

Dec 2, 2008 - Strengthen our DEMOCRACY? We're a REPUBLIC not a Democracy?

seasons411 Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - You seem to be missing the point of satire. :-) Clearly, the writer/director KNOWS the truth of what you're saying. He is using the word "democracy" as something the GOVERNMENT would be saying. This is what they WANT us to believe. The rest of the stuff the narrator says isn't true, either. That's the point of parody/satire. Get it now?
