'Price is Right' dude is looking pretty good!!!! Bit of a communist though, which was surprising…. he needs to go back to Cleveland and get grounded. For being stoned. And sneaking out his bedroom window to go hug boys and hold hands Hahahaha i used to get super 😮â€ðŸ’¨â˜ï¸ðŸ˜¶â€ðŸŒ«ï¸ðŸ¥´ before work but I can't do that now that I'm an Heir Traffic Controller. Lot of responsibility. Not a lot of men are built for it. Takes an apex type A penultimate pillar of the Community to be an effective leader of Men. Which is why I let my children have as much 5 hour energy drinks as they want. Be a King 👑 Drink drinks like a king 🤴. RIP BIGGIE. BIG UPS – BIG MAN. TALL GUY. SORT OF.

Thanks so much for making me aware of this book and way of understanding.
to eat the elephant, you've to blow him to bits first.
Excellent discussion! Please give the audience a mic next time so we can hear the questions.
Well, now I'm angry… good talk though.
An elephant sized caveat to the elephant analogy. The beast must be dead before you start eating it. I recommend letting it impale itself on your spear while charging. Unga bunga.
and just talks about how he will not give them an NRO. Muhammad Qasim Dreams
LOOK AT THIS PILE HEAD ? ðŸ˜ðŸ¥´âœŒï¸
blaming corporations for a problem created by laws and legislation is missing the point.
What a horrific image re eating an elephant one bite at a time, please stop!!! Isn't colonialist capitalism the major reason we've driven them nearly extinct in… 200 years!?
We need less talking head social justice warriors and more hard working people in construction and engineering jobs. Thumbs down to this video
No credibility for any speakers in this video because of the sophomoric and uneducated claim in the intro that "the Peale Museum is the oldest museum in the Western Hemisphere." Sorry girl, you might be able to get away with that when you speak to a sympathetic local cocktail party art gallery supporter audience in Baltimore. But YOU ARE BEING CALLED OUT on that lie. (pity, I wanted to hear the whole video sympathetically, without the usual "be careful, American liars and lying to you" skepticism defenses erected… but that obvious disinformation from local Baltimore rhetoric… it doesn't pass the "test of truth" outside of Baltimore, Maryland.) Thus, entire video is FAIL. DUBIOUS. Therefore, the whole video becomes QUESTION THESE (not really) AUTHORITIES. SOPHOMORIC FAIL
The Peale Museum is not the "oldest museum in the western hemisphere." Sorry, you lose all credibility. Western Hemisphere = everything west of Greenwich, England. Ever been to Bath, England? or the hundreds of other museums west of Greenwich in the UK that are older than Baltimore itself? Lost credibility.
This analysis was written over a century ago by Marx and Lenin.
Very fine episode. I wish these these people from the arts well.
The truth is with this recent economy Everyone needs more than there salary to be financially stable. The the best thing to do with your money is to Invest it rightly because money left for saving always end up used with no returns….
We have to eliminate these capitalist parasites, all the money in the world is never enough for them and they still don't want to share.

What will it take to get the head-choppers out. It's our lives the fktrds are screwing with. Shut it all down.
I haven't heard any mention of the architecture of our monetary system, the banking cartel, fractional reserve lending.
As long as we use this sort of Ponsi scheme fiat money, all that any legislative policy reform can do is move the choke points around – likely from privately owned corporations into a bloated government – an isomorphic rearrangement of the same problem.
The current structure of the world's central banks will inevitably lead to monopoly, no matter the institutions they service.
nonplussed. Art has become like flush toilets.
32:44 until common services are taken from parasites, nothing will change. It is the workers, the capital, that get everything done, not the parasites.
Chokepoint capitalism? this period in history will be known as “the battle of euphemismsâ€. nobody uses correct language. It is why you lose.
im planning on moving to the Philippines , GOD DAMN AMERICA . corporations are public enemy #1
love everyones sharp wit (and style) lots of answer in this video, we are strong together against the bottle neck catch-22 vice grip thing
For those interested in the extremely relevant issue of full abolition of intellectual property (IP) laws (see this comment thread):
1:16 ha ha, gaslight tech was then used to convince all of us that paying taxes is not extortion.
