    A few dozen more youtube links or links to obscure blog posts.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Good video.....He is saying that our government is becoming more and more like a fascist state. We don't have habeas corpus anymore. Look at what the Patriot Act does. We are going to be getting a "Real I.D." in the near future. Research that if you haven't heard about that. Our country is drowning in debt. The dollar is losing its value because of unconstitutional wars like Iraq. It is basically a warning that we need to be wary of what our government is doing.

    well no because that door is open in this country. You don't have habeas corpus anymore so all we need is somebody in office that is capable of doing something like Hitler did. At least Bush wouldn't murder his own people like that. Who knows about future presidents.

    why you dont you do some research on what the Patriot Act does and what habeas corpus being suspended means before you label me a being paranoid.

    Nothing happens to you until you happen to disagree passionately about something.

    At that point, you quickly realize you're at a disadvantage for being complacent to the many small and frequent seemingly insignificant changes.

    Some people by default, are ridiculously complacent.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.

    Paranoid is what you call being over aware... In this context it's called scrutiny, or due diligence.

    Shame more Nazi's weren't more dilligent on the odd occasion.

    Do you really think that we are just a couple of years away from exterminating a massive group of American citizens and starting WWIII? which group exactly? I hope i'm not in that one.

    There are a lot of problems with the government, and there are serious problems with complacency, but you are delusional if you think what is happening now is anywhere close to what was happening in Germany in the run up to WWII. Absolutely delusional.

    Stop with the scare tactics already. it makes you sound stupid.

    Once the framework is on place. It's there. No one has a crystal ball on who is going to hop in the drivers seat in the future. To say it isn't happening already to a certain degree, or can't happen is unwise.

    Complacency is far worse than any form of scrutiny.

    I sorta understand the point that Badnarik was trying to make, but as soon as he started bringing the Holocaust up as a comparison, he sounded as delusional and paranoid as that Applewhite guy with the Heaven's gate cult.

    Christ!! I should have known better.

    I posted this because of the concept of finally saying enough is enough. And deciding you aren't going to go along with the corrupt deeds of your govt and resisting. Is it that difficult to grasp? You don't have to take everything as a 100% literal comparison...jeez.
