To bad this is TV and not a real politician!

This is a very interesting video and IS possibly the most honest explanation I have ever heard. It hits a nerve and after answering the question, provides a suggestion of how things could be in the future. !!!!!!

That's been hashed over already here. The guys sounds like many other douchebag socialists we have in politics. You want a real politician who doesn't just rant on about how "we" aren't doing enough, go listen to some Ron Paul speeches.
"The only freedom which deserves the name is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it. Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily, or mental or spiritual. Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves, than by compelling each to live as seems good to the rest." ~ John Stuart Mill

Either I watched a different vid to you, or you are WAY overly sensitive to the fact that the U.S. is rapidly becoming a third world shit hole, no thanks to "progressives".
How does calling a spade a spade (or reminiscing) make someone a douchebag socialist? Does that mean that because I think I had better schooling in the 60's and 70's than what's available now, that makes me a douchebag socialists?
Just curious as to your line of reasoning. And no, insults are not intended or implied.

The previous discussion RedGreen is referring to is here.
As an aside, thread topics are usually linked through the title they're posted under, to avoid several different members posting the same topic.

Comments/opinions mounted on FreeDominion are absent the normal visual clues of real world conversations, so it's easy to misconstrue what a keyboard comrade means in reply to one's posts.

You've not posted herein all that many times as yet, so may not realize that most FreeDominion members are relatively civil - considering this forum has been the subject of so much complaint by 'progressives' in Canada.
