uuuuuhhh the passion. But even though its a left leaning news cast i must agree. And if the president were to come out and call it like it is, he could be re-elected in a heart beat. BUUUUUTTTT its not going to happen.

People choose presidents like they purchase TV infomercial products. The more often you see it the more likely Joe and Jane are to "buy it". All the cash that is spent to keep the system the way it is currently would be directed against a President who railed against its current state. He or she would not be elected. The problem is Americans are stupid, unlettered, simpletons. This isn't democrat vs republican cash this would be both of those stockpiles against one idea. The big time cash both those groups gets is not a cash check vote on character but that recipients aptitude to repay the election cost in a net increase of power or profit for the purchaser. People say we have a capitalistic economy, we really have a capitalistic politic whose purpose is to convince you that an already bought and sold individual is going to look after you because you voted for them, when you voted for them only because the cash given to them forced your ballot.

What does it take for people to wake up? We need to break free of these chains from money. It makes us all slaves one way or another.

Buffett Calls for Tax Hike on

People invest to make money, and potential taxes have never scared them off,” he said. “And to those who argue that higher rates hurt job creation, I would note that a net of nearly 40 million jobs were added between 1980 and 2000. You know what’s happened since then: lower tax rates and far lower job creation.”
