  1. It's our fault because we aren't organizing against it. We fight for gay rights, anti-rascism, etc, but completely ignore neoliberal fascism.

  2.

  3. If a blue collar worker buys a home he/she has to pay property taxes from the first month to the last, but if a wealthy peron buys a $11,000 a square foot high rise condo they get a 30 year tax break

  4. CRIMINALS JUSTIFYING A CRIMINAL SYSTEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL PROFITS LEADING TWO COUNTRIES INTO GENOCIDES: BILL CLINTON(CLINTON FONDATION), TONY BLAIR(GAI), JEFFERSON WATERMAN(J.W.I), HOWARD G. BUFFETT(BUFFETT FONDATION) JUSTIFYING PAUL KAGAME(PRESIDENT OF RWANDA) RUNING FOR MINES IN CONGO LEED RWANDANS AND CONGOLESE INTO GENOCIDES!!! IT IS TRUE , BUT THISE INDIVIDUALS ARE CRIMINAL SO POWER FULL TO JUSTIFY THEIR SYSTEMS AT A POINT THAT IT SEEMS THAT NO JUSTICE CAN BRING THEM UNDER RULS OF JUSTICE!!!

  5. I live in a van and travel around because I couldn't afford an apartment in California where I live. I'm permanently disabled from cancer 8x in my life since I was 21. I'm grateful we have a disability payment. I think a lot of people who won't be allowed to go to work because of Corona virus will fall behind and lose their housing and join me in the ranks of the homeless. I don't consider myself homeless and I would not live in a single location again unless it's a grave. I think there will be a greater ability for those people to begin to understand what's REALLY causing homelessness. It's not that they are drug addicted. It's that your great economy isn't great enough to allow for any security.

  6. Finance Board is the Mayor, Chair of the City Council and City Treasurer – All elected democrats.

  7. Gambling with public funds (i.e. stockmarket/hedge fund "investments") should be considered a serious criminal offense, in fact, it should probably be called treason

  8. WALLSTREET GETS INTEREST FREE MONEY TO STEAL REAL ASSETS PAID FOR BY THE SHEEPLES BLOOD & SWEAT.
    history repeating on every generation that for forgets the TYRANNY OF THE OLIGARCHY TERRORIST

  9. Neo liberal economics are a system to exploit those that have little or no power to defend them self so that the parasitic wealthy can benifit from this gross injustice

  10. I've listen to this man before. He talks to fast, doesn't enunciate well and does a really bad job of explaining the dynamics of what is going on. I like to share videos to my FB friends. If the information given isn't clear, concise, and presented in a way that the average person can understand then a very important message will loose its efficacy. Please find someone else to do the break down of what is really happening. This is the second or third time I have listened to his analysis and am left with the same feeling that something is seriously lacking. The woman leading this report does an excellent job.

  11. I dream of the day when enough good people have finally had enough and demand that this corrupt system and the corrupt people that currently governs us are made to pay for the criminal and immoral injustices they have deliberately inflicted unto the good citizens of their countries. They only do it because we have allowed them to do it with our absence of objections and mostly with our silence. Mans laws are worthless unless they apply to everyone. Humanity has been subjected to mass deception, corruption and barbarian satanic rule for such a long time already that the evils of greed and the amplified self entitled ego's that deliberately breed it have taken hold of the many. It seems that all it takes to silence and convert someone is to provide them with a paycheck. As an active observer of the political games being constantly played both in Canada and the U.S., I have become well aware of what the game actually is, who the players really are and what is really at stake. Anyone that cares anything about humanity or even just those that they love most, owes it to them and themselves to get informed about what is really at issue here and why it really matters. Jordon Maxwell and David Icke are two of many that know a lot about what is going on and why. Check them out if you have not already done so.

  12. Many people seem not to understand how "the law of supply and demand" works as designed when creating scarcity.
    Scarce resources cost more than abundant resources, so the "law of supply and demand" tends to create scarcity.

  13. Lean right. Like this channel. Doing good job of uncovering the bs they make hard to uncover. Most abandoned buildings owned by the richest people!

  14. I am (all of us are) 60% water so logically I had to pay for that water that is me and someone profited from it. So this person or group or business essentially profited for 60% of me or us. So, essentially, we have to continuously buy ourselves daily. These entities did not make water, they did not labor to make water, did just paid for the box to stored it. I ask you then why can't we store the water and pay only for the labor of storing it and distributing it INSTEAD of profiteers. It would benefit many water containing people instead of just a few.

  15. People read a real version of the Talmud if you want to know what's really going on. It's time to Occupy Wall Street permanently or that will crash it again and get paid for doing it.

  16. Americans we have to take down the 3% along with the 1% or nothing will change, big monopolies have lobbied (bought) our government and kills our people in wars to prop up their demonic agenda.

  17. To anyone who despairs at the state of the world, I have this glimmer of (philosophical) hope for you: climate change is a global tsunami that is going to wipe modern humanity off the planet. The ultra-rich, the corrupt elites, the Gates', Bezos', Buffets and the like are going to see their world (the same as ours) crash due to climate change. How? Very simple: agriculture will start failing on huge scales. That domino will cascade into social unrest (you try raising the price of basic foods significantly..). Social unrest will turn into civil and international wars. And the other guaranteed thing is this: all the while, the climate will continue to deteriorate exponentially. So the philosophical among us should look forward to a time when neoliberalism and even capitalism itself will be crushed by its own stupidity. Thanks to climate change.

  18. It's urban renewal, without building. Land pennies on the dollar, when enough is aquired, then apt building for higher incomes. Less low income less demand for social services. In crease in tax base. Win win for the people at the top.

  19. The city won't bill those scavenger lawyers for water so eventually no money for water should shut the city down. Can't hardly wait for that headline

  20. As a generous person and a person that truly and deeply cares about every person. I can never understand how a person can sit idle and watch others suffer while they hoard everything !!
