  1. I mean it's good. It's great for its time, and you can tell by the books they wrote that they saw really deeply into the issues facing our modern era. I want us creative minds to brain storm solutions that fit the gears of the existing machinery. Work within to overcome. Stay strong my sisters and my brothers.
  2. My view of the world
    By
    Noam Chomsky
    Lip service...
  3. More relevant than ever.
  4. especially like from 39:00, modern Dem party
  5. Jeb Bush has spent more on his campaign than any of the other candidates for the republican primaries. Yet Jeb bush is failing hilariously.
    How can your theory account for Jebs impotence?
  6. "We must love one another or perish."
  7. Another gatekeeper propaganda film,shows what is happening but hides who is pulling the strings behind the scene,so you never see the owners.
  8. I'll just say this, money and economics isn't the only thing involved in the shaping of politics. A centerpiece, sure.. but not everything.
  9. This is depressing.  Great documentary.
  10. Everyone oughta vote in every election!
  11. The investment theory isn't altogether wrong. But, it fails to address what's by far the biggest problem---that the candidates basically buy their way into their offices with unfairly-high-spending campaigns.
  12. Needs to be shown in pub!if schools on why Common Core is a bad idea
  13. 20:50 to 22:37 I cringed so much it hurt.
  14. PartiallyEnlightened The solution is mentioned here http://youtu.be/VwbKcVy6JWE?t=59m00s and here http://youtu.be/VwbKcVy6JWE?t=1h4m9s and here http://youtu.be/VwbKcVy6JWE?t=1h10m2s
  15. I'm confused, the more I watch this video the more it doesn't make sense. Am I the only one that sees all the people being interviewed contradict themselves all the time? This video hates on capitalism and government at the same time. Yet, after watching it for 40 minutes I see no one mention any solutions, as if we actually need them.
  16. yes sir. you must had traded the penny stocks carefully which is the best way to make profit. be mature and do this, my father making lots from penny stocks with the help of these professionals. i found it here : bit.ly/14s9Twb?=vbuywb
