    • Great vid. Amazing how that speech is as relevant today as it was 133 years ago.IRNlun6
    • ... "73 years"IRNlun6
    • think he said the underlining agenda perfectly. to subjugate people and be their master.
      ********
    • tied it all up in the conclusion
      ********
    • That's an extremely poor argument. History has proven your point to be absolutely false.IRNlun6
    • its the only outcome with such philosophy. id say u see it today even if its subtle or defined differently
      ********

      ********
    • nothing scaryier. all u have to do is ask yourself how and who will provide and u see who is master and who is slave
      ********
    • I have no idea who and what you support but to me nothing is scarier than corporate interest superseding the publics interest.IRNlun6
    • ... interest. I'm aware that the will of the people is not represented currently but I will continue to support it non-the-less.IRNlun6
    • Our government isn't some nefarious entity it's a representation of we the people. At least that's how it's was supposed to be...IRNlun6
    • ... supposed to be.IRNlun6
    • i dont blame corporate interests as mush as i do the gov. do you blame a parent who gives its kid beer when the kid asks
      ********
    • or the parent. the gov has the power to leave litigation alone so as not to serve corporate interests.
      ********
    • Yes. That's right FDR was our dictator. Yup. Just like Hitler. And Mussolini. We live in a vast totalitarian state for 73 years now.TheBlueOne
    • years now. Sure thing.TheBlueOne
    • im not sure a gov can represent the will of the people. since their is no such thing. will of one yes.
      ********
    • oh and corporate interests vs mob interests are no different and a gov shouldnt cater to such things
      ********
    • man blue why do you always have to say such things like hitler and stuff. kind over shooting it arnt u
      ********
    • It's not mob rule, it's called democracy. Not trying to be insulting, are you an anarchist?IRNlun6
    • nope. what is a mob? woudl u prefer i say a majority? and do u know the purpose of a majority, a union, a mob?
      ********
    • of course i'd use my terminology different but thinking of fdr values id say he wants mob rule
      ********
    • You're playing semantics. There is a distinction between a mob and a political majority.IRNlun6
    • yes in the case of fdrs policy, and his economic bill of rights hes was going for mob rule.
      ********
    • and msot majorities always want to take away the rights of the minority. in those cases theyre mob, if theyre not
      ********
    • then theyre likely in no need of a party/group/org and theyre fine. as long as parties or collective sorts are involved in politics
      ********
    • the political system the percentage of mob rule is high. why would u have a group otherwise
      ********
    • hey man I have no idea who you are but trying to follow your reasoning makes my head hurtukit
