(5,364 posts)4. Wonderful! Best half hour I've ever spent. Stunningly concise.
I like the way he presents the idea of transforming the system we have now as quite do-able, if we realize ( and act accordingly ) that we are the majority. The only hitch is the "we" part. I know all too many who get hung up on the semantics thing in that they just can't bring themselves to attach any negativity to "capitalism". The "soshulist" [ SIC ] stigma has got to go, but in time I think most will finally realize we're being played. The only ones we'll likely never reach are the rabidly partisan "god & guns" crowd.
