Thanks for the invite! Refreshing to see that you’re not another 15 year old girl teaching people how to apply makeup like a porn star (though i do subscribe to those too…lol). =)
“The business owners get higher profits by opening more stores thus having to hire more people…”
I drive thru mine town, and all i see is for sale sign in empty buildings…
“By punishing success you discourage anyone from growing.”
That is very far from the case, especially now a days where money in america is made not by innovating technologies and such, but by usury and resource allocation.
Big business shift jobs overseas and then gets stupid amounts of tax Cuts…
check my intellect i dare you
Hehe. Very very bright!
yeah… i guess that is what you do in a your last manifesto to mankind in a suicide note. You just kid around and contextualize jokes.
The guy clearly hated capitalism… He hated the IRS (which is not a trait that belong to capitalists). He hated corporations. He hated the free market. He hated himself. He was a self loathing marxist who failed over and over again.
AP reports that Joe Stack was at airport “HOURS” before attack.
Who set his house on fire and left note?
And? Have you ever thought that it may…just may be better than the pile of stinkin shit that we’re livin in now? Thought not.
Feudal or facsist? Feudal or Facsist? Hmmm.
Sup my fellow IRS tax paying slaves to the private banks that we pay taxes too who are not the feds.
“My weapon of choice is an Axe!”
Because I got a few things & questions I like to Axe about!
Got Anthrax? No
Got Duck Tape? No
Got Health care? No
Got milk? / /( . )( . ) … Yes!
No one seems to get the bottom line. “WE HAVE NO MONEY”. What freekin planet are you all living in???? It has nothing to do with who is in office. We have no money. We are broke. Don’t you all get it. I don’t care for any of these jokers. Solve the part where we “HAVE NO MONEY” first and then provide expensive plans.
You’re an idiot…
Joesph Stack was a communist! Read the last page of his manifesto!
How are “rich people” being punished, exactly? I don’t understand this argument. Economic growth isn’t stopping for the rich, though it is for the middle class. And what about those middle class people that have historically owned businesses and created jobs? They are being punished, now, by the foolish practices of corporations and banks — with the government as their accomplice. If you take a look at the “successes” of the “rich people” in the US, it usually comes at a cost to society.
It’s taken us centuries to get away from medieval feudalism and the super libertarians “freedom” squad wants us to head back.
I do agree that this country was built by the poor. The business owners get higher profits by opening more stores thus having to hire more people. Some of those rich business owners worked hard to get where they are. By punishing success you discourage anyone from growing.
The point is that most “rich people” will exploit their labor force when given the opportunity. The marginal income tax rate is the lowest than it’s ever been in US history and real unemployment is still over 15%. So don’t give me bullshit about lower taxes creating more jobs for Americans.
I think your characterization of the Tea Party phenomenon is incorrect. Also, you can hardly call Mother Jones a credible source.
Still, I appreciate your conviction.
I read it in its entirety. Just because he quoted Marx at the end doesn’t mean he was showing respect for the doctrine; he was just using it to contextualize the joke “for each according to his greed, from each according to his gullibility.”
Criticizing capitalism, at least the way Joe wrote about it, does not say anything about his economic or political convictions. Lack of overt criticism towards Obama does not make him a communist either.
He failed at cheating the IRS; that pissed him off.
yesterday’s freedom fighter’s are today’s “terrorists”.
Whhaaa the Tea Party is doing an excellent job calling out the fuhrer.
Joe Stack didn’t file himself under a political group. Stack is the consequence of when people have nothing to loose they lose it.
Militia’s are constitutional, the term militia appears 6 times in the US Constitution.
And you don’t want your millitiary to uphold the constitution before any political party?
I thought you libtards were anti fascism. Now it’s still fascist to uphold the US Constitution?
davis, i think you’re overanalyzing these guys and completely forgetting their common thread amongst us who are sick of the government bs.
you sound exactly like those conservative pundits bitching about all those sleeper cell liberals progressives. you’re either falling into that bullshit political game or pushing it, but i would guess you don’t realize it.
Great Video! Yes the false 2 party system continues as people vote for the party rather than the issues. Good job people. Make the Libertarians stand for your rights. (Joe Stack not libertarian- Joe Stack communist).
Davis, this was just a guy that hit his breaking point. His views were all over the place.
Whether or not Joe Stack was a terrorist he was a communist. Quote from his suicide note:
“The communist creed: From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.
The capitalist creed: From each according to his gullibility, to each according to his greed.”
If you don’t believe me look it up.
Wait Davis, you do know that Joe Stack’s suicide note demonstrated that he favored communism right? Granted some of the rest of his manifesto made the rest of his political views up in the air, but I wouldn’t necessary label him as a right-wing tea partier either.
Is Joe Stack a terrorist? Yes, Did anything else in that video blog make sense? Not even close. Obviously Stack was a nut job at the best. He was a super evil guy at the worst. Killing innocent employees, even if those employees are employees of the government, doesn’t mean it’s OK. It doesn’t even compare with the revolutionaries of 1776. Not one single thing said besides that made sense. The three arms (1st arm-terrorist, 2nd arm-terrorist, 3rd arm-terrorist) of the Tea Party-ers is just lame.
