Bill Moyers Essay: The Hypocrisy of 'Justice for All'

bobknight33 says...

Bill Moyers,

Justice for all ??? What bullshit. More like robbing Peter to pay Paul who would rather sit on his ass and collect free money.. Where is the "justice" for the earnest worker that works hard and barley makes ends meet just to have the government tax them more?

Where is the Justice for the welfare recipient who becomes trapped from excelling into the workforce only to have the welfare taken away at a disproportionate rate? welfare is a trap by democrats to keep the poor in their pockets.

Bitching about Executing people? Really? Do the crime and pay the fine.


Quit bitching about companies not paying taxes.

If you could get "special" treatment you would take full advantage every time. Who wouldn't.

The Government, sets the rules. Quit voting long-timers who keep miking the public.

Bill Moyers Essay: When Bosses Push Their Politics

>> ^Sagemind:

In the political jargon and propaganda of Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and the Communist International, western democratic states were referred to as "plutocracies", with the implication being that a small number of extremely wealthy individuals were controlling the countries and holding them in ransom. "Plutocracy" replaced "democracy" and "capitalism" as the principal fascist term for the United States and Great Britain during the Second World War. For the Nazis, the term was often a code word for "the Jews".

Are you seriously suggesting that someone who thinks this video demonstrates plutocratic tendencies are themselves antisemitic, totalitarian and/or fascist?

Bill Moyers: Living Under the Gun

>> ^kymbos:

So what was the point of saying 'Brazil is worse'?
I would love to hear an honest argument from the pro-gun lobby. Something like this: "Ok, so we understand that guns kill people - that's what they're for. We understand that the more guns there are in a society, and the more high powered they are, the more people will get shot and killed. But we like guns, and we as a society are willing to accept the consequences of these preferences. Now fuck off and leave us to our guns."
At least it's honest. There's no bullshit, inverted logic, blind refusal to accept reality. It's a genuine acceptance of fact and consequence.
And if I'm not mistaken, support for gun use is growing all the time in America. So why not?


You obviously haven't read anything I have posted, so I'll sum it up and be done with you. Guns are more often used to prevent crime or save lives than they are used to murder or commit crimes (but you won't hear that from the mass media networks). Only 10% of violent crimes involve the use of a gun. Other countries that have made it illegal for private citizens to own guns, crime went up after the guns were confiscated, so your idea that less guns = less crime is flawed. Your own link said America is more violent than all other advanced countries, but if 90% of violent crimes don't involve guns, obviously guns aren't the problem and less guns won't stop the violence.
