"Rich Man's World (1%)"

[Arthur Jensen:]
"You get up and howl about america and democracy.
There is no america there is no democracy,
We no longer live in a world of nations and ideologies.
The world is a college of corporations... inexorably
Determined by the... immutable bylaws of business.
The world is a business.
And I have chosen you to preach this evangel"

[Immortal Technqiue:]
For all my free market, healthcare robbing, stock stealing, retirement fund
Fucking with niggas. Fuck your little credit card scammin, jewlery stealing,
Crack selling, liquor store robbing mother fuckers (Its a rich mans world)
Hahahaha. Shout to the homies, Carnegie, OG, Willie Randolf Hearst,

Thirteenth, Jack Abramoff, hold ya head, my Rothschild niggas, LET'S

[Verse 1: Immortal Technique]
I spend my day repping america overseas
Pensions for the workers? nigga please
Embezzlement etiquette private settlement
I'm better with confederate rhetoric from my mansion in connecticut
Foreclose and evict homes at the tenement
I twist words like a speech inpedIment
I hope you got good credit bitch
If not better get a new job with benefits
When I play golf with niggasii get cheddar with
New money buys brand new karats
My old money bought your great grand parents
You got grills in ya mouth I ain't mad at ya
I own every gold mine in South Africa
Thanks baby you made me a billion
Plus I own a building for each one of my children's children
That's the shit, snort coke in the whip miss USA sucking my dick
Yea what fuck the law 'cus real jail is for suckas
I go to country club prison you dumb mother fuckers
(I am the 1% fucking bitch)

[Hook]
You know my CEO corporate steeez please
Overthrow governments overseas in a breeze
Politicians in my pocket for a few hundred Gs
So if I'm never in court my assets a never freeze

[Verse 2: Immortal Technique]
I got a job and house and a bank account
When I'm out I doubt that's something you could say
And if not then I fake death like Kenneth Lay
Make money every day the world burns
Wanna tax us while y'all struggle to pay taxes
I'm getting my money the fastest
Memos and faxes shredded up documents
Slush funds through the corrupt continents
But they don't want me indicted
'Cause they don't want my dirty laundry aired when I fight it
Don't get my lawyers excited
'Cause what good is a law if you can't rewrite it
I got CIA traders, dictators so fuck y'all whistleblowers and haters
(Its a rich mans world) Shiiieeeaaat
I'll invest money from Al Qaeda
In the bank 911 widows go to later
Capitalism so I pray to fuck the state of the world
Money talks so what the fuck I need to say to ya girl
(I don't pay em to fuck, I pay em to leave)

[Hook]
You know my CEO corporate steeez greed
I'll treat countries like the IMF down on your knees
Real gangsters run the world fuck what you believe
I'll cut down the forest while y'all niggas burning some trees
I'll get your family murdered for a couple of Gs
'Cause your working class money ain't fucking with me
You think rappers are rich 'cause of songs you heard?
My labels make the money and haven't rapped a fucking word

[Verse 3: Immortal Technique]
Y'all in the ocean coastin' with the sails out
Hey America thanks for the bailouts
I made off at the banco ambrosiano
Got away scott free like el Vaticano
Acitvists activist get mad at me
'Cause I'm a tax free charity
80% to the staff and company
And 20% to the homeless and hungry
The country gotta pay the fed reserve
Kick back to the banksters haven't you learned
You protest cops or patrols on the street
But I bought city hall so I own the police
Email facebook and the shit you tweet
On the phone companies so I heard you speaking
My suggestion is no correction no elections, sex with no affection
No invention would benefit the world of man
Will exist till I got the money in my hand
World bank, interest rate damn rape on the spot
But I'm a gangster you gon' take my money like it or not, nigga
(I got your country in my pocket, motherfucker!)

[Hook]
You know my CEO masonic steeez cheese
Only little people pay all these taxes and fees
Since you were born we controlled what you watch and you read
And pretty soon were gonna own the fucking air that you breathe
I take what I want fucker I don't have to say please
I'll convince you that it's good for you, take it and leave
You think presidents are the face of a nation
I put em all where they are, end of the conversation

Hahaha

I have often said that the sailors of the future will sail on sponge ships upon seas of mercury.

Wow... I would have had a bit of a hard time largely due to my car's power steering not working and the oddly tight parking of cars along the horizontal (not to mention sloppy parking by the white car), but even so... back up with a small left turn, so you are basically behind the white car and in the same direction as it, hard left out, probably have to small right reverse to get lined up with the exit, but smooth sailing from there... Heck, even his original plan was going fine until the 55 second mark when he decides to cut forward right, keep it going left bro, then back right and you are out...

The one I would have trouble with is the big grey station wagon with the white Mercedes van behind him. He doesn't have nearly as much wiggle room, and even he seemed to start his turn the wrong way, unless he was going to back down the exit from there (hard to tell what is past the left of the screen).

RE: Yachts or sailboats, I'd say both terms describe these just fine. Very fast yachts/sailboats, but that's what they are.

They're fucking terrifying. I sail dinghies and yachts, and I know how much a small dinghy can hurt you (pitch pole a 49er on a breezy day and see how you fair) and they're not moving anywhere near as fast as these things.

I sail (and race) a fair bit, and recently heard what professionals like tanker crews call us: WAFIs... Wind Assisted Fucking Idiots.

Very true.

The strangest thing about these enormous ships is the speed they move at. This ship travels at 23knots (just over 26mph, or just over 42kph). That doesn't sound fast if you're not a sailor or don't spend a lot of time on the water around these things, but for a boat, it's quick. We're used to the way things work on the roads, which is the bigger the truck, the slower it goes but on the water, it's pretty much the opposite. If you're sailing and you see a sailing boat on the horizon you've got a while to think about what to do to avoid it if necessary. With a ship like this it's not many minutes at all.

Incredible engineering.

The fuck is someone in a sail boat rushing anywhere?

Ha, he probably never used his sails anyway..

I've worked as a rescue boat driver at a large sailing reservoir in the UK for many years. It still terrifies me how little time you've got to get someone out of the water before things get really serious. I've had a few close calls and only one entrapment, but fortunately a very easy to fix one.

Water is a fantastic thing to play around with and my kids will be spending as much time as possible in and around it, but it's well deserving of respect. Add any sort of equipment into the mix (boat, kayak, even rubber rings) and things get worse.

You've got to be so on the ball. Look away for ten seconds and it's too long, you're probably not even going to spot the drowning person. Great to see such a fast and good response in the video!

Your video, Beautiful sexy sailing, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

A model and her boyfriend who owns a kickass boat and gets to sail it to exotic locals. If I ever saw them I would throw rocks at them, bastards!

My background: I come from an upper middle class background in the UK. I went to a normal primary school, did very well and ended up passing the exams for the local private school. I was from a pretty well off family but my parents never stopped me being friends with anyone and I had friends from all walks of life. When I was in a normal school with lots of normal kids I got on well with most of them and it was all good.

I was thrown out of the posh private school after a year and a half because it was full of the sort of little fucking shits that bitches like this drag up. Every time one of them started braying all I wanted to do was shut them up. I had a lot of fights and was gotten rid of.

After that I went to the only school in the city that would take people who were expelled from another school. The friends I made there, in the shit hole school, are some of the best people I know. Good, honest, successful people.

This bitch makes my blood boil. I'm sure in her circles she's celebrated for her honesty, because everyone knows you shouldn't let your children play with 'common' people.

I've dipped a toe in both worlds at school, and since then I've been a keen dinghy sailor, which is a scene that attracts people from all backgrounds. I know lawyers, doctors, teachers, directors, lorry drivers, sound engineers, metal workers, mechanics, beach bums and stoners who all sail and I know for a fact that the money in the bank has nothing to do with what you're like as a person.

I certainly wouldn't want my kids hanging around with hers.

Fucking hell I'm angry right now!

What a load of bollocks. At ~ 4 minutes he starts talking about poor persecuted Ayn Rand and how it's impossible to have a reasoned conversation with a non-libertarian, because they instantly dismiss libertarian arguments.

Meanwhile the irony has gone sailing so far over his head it's practically in orbit.

It is perfectly possible to have an interesting reasoned discussion about libertarian values. I've had several myself on VS, where both sides made non-hyperbolic informed points. Ultimately libertarianism, like communism, is a failed ideology and there are many valid arguments against it.

My favorite has always been the disappearing TIE fighters in Return of the Jedi. You'll need to use a copy of the original movie and not one of the new versions. Right after the Rebels escape Jabba's sail barge, we see a scene of TIE fighters circling the Death Star, welcoming the Emperor. As the scene starts, four TIE fighters appear from around the camera and fly down to the lower left. Keep your eye on them and *blink*, they disappear right before the scene changes.
