Is income inequality in America becoming a national issue? Will it affect the 2012 elections? Republicans think that if they crash the economy - President Obama will get the blame - is that correct? Or will it backfire? Find out with Thom Hartmann and Max Fraad Wolff, Economist/Professor of Economics at the New School University Graduate Program in International Affairs.

Seth Rogen is a lot funnier when he talks about economics. The only reason he has a career in Hollywood is because he's a Jew. The equality and "great society" USA of the 1930's through to 1960's? were a direct result of the New Deal by FDR coupled with the fact that the USA had the only standing industrial base because everyone else had theirs destroyed in the war. The moron free market types keep talking about "socialism", redistributing wealth. They act as if they are rich. HAHA! So stupid.

I believe that the american people will blame Obama for the worsting economic crisis. A lot of older americans will continue to vote republican just to see Obama gets one term. I'm from Florida and there were a large turnout of people that voted republican Rick Scott in office. The irony of it all he swindled millions out of Florida's? healthcare system. It upsets me that so many americans are ill-informed!!

This guy explained something that few seem to understand. An egalitarian society & economy that we call the American Dream isn't a natural state of affairs. Without a functioning democracy with an active & informed citizenry, without effective regulation & progressive laws, societies & economies tend? toward inequality. Look at most societies throughout most of history. It took many people fighting & dying over a couple of centuries to gain the free & fair society we have or used to have.

Mike Riggs, Reason magazine joins Thom Hartmann. Meanwhile...there is no Republican love for Ron Paul. You know...the 12 term congressman... the Republican candidate who won the Iowa debate - and the guy who clinched the runner up spot in the recent Iowa Straw poll - yet can't get any attention for his accomplishments. So why is he an "afterthought" in the media?

Hello? Ron Paul wants to dismantle the federal reserve. I.e. destroy the financial elite's control of America. He wants to stop the bankers who run the country, government, and control the media, and who make money by default by rigging the financial markets. Even if he succeeded in doing this without getting assassinated like JFK, the? bankers are truly global anyway. Way to go, ignoring the elephant in the room....

By: TBlake34. on 25 Sep 11, 17:33:43
It's precisely because I know what "capitulate" means that I know you misused it. The homestead principle merely says that a person gains ownership by exerting labor on a piece of neutral land. That creates a? right to the land, but how is that program enforced? Do people just say, "Oh, Bob put a tent there, I guess that's his land." Or do governments enforce those property rights? (Since you're stupid, I'll give you a hint, it's the second one)

"You should probably stop using words you don't really understand. " Or words YOU don't understand? "Real property rights exist because governments enforce those rights." Then how do you explain taxation. An expropriating property rights protector? (government) is a contradiction in terms.

By: TBlake34. on 24 Sep 11, 13:57:41
More incoherent nonsense. You should probably stop using words you don't really understand. "Indulge your intellectual capitulation" is gibberish. Real property rights exist because governments enforce those rights. Take away the government and real property is merely defined by your physical ability to defend it. This is? historically true, this is true now in a place like Somalia. Likewise, financial markets only work with strong enforecement mechanisms--ie strong governments

By: TBlake34. on 22 Sep 11, 15:47:19
Your obstinant, immature glibertarianism, unsurprisingly, exhausted itself. The only possible way to maintain a libertarian stance like Ron Paul is to be willfully ignorant of basic fact or just really fucking stupid. The difference is meaningless on a practical level. Take securities trading. Have you ever wondered why? such a system only exists in nations with strong central governments? And before you're stupid response, study necessary vs. sufficient conditions.

It's like discussing science with someone who thinks all the dinosaurs were on Noah's Ark. The rest of your statement is just more paranoid, idiotic nonsense. You're just upchucking silly bullshit from Ayn Rand novels. Narcissism absent? thinking. You've utterly failed to even grasp the basics of the history of property rights.

"Investing in the future performance of a company is distinct from real property." This does not rebut my point since in order to invest you need real property. Calling me retarded also does not? eliminate the fact that you don't have a real argument. If you think we'd all be sharing our toothbrushes were the government to be abolished, then you're retarded. Democratic government is a means of plunder. The poor do it through welfare programs while the rich do it through money inflation

Good lord, amazing. You're basically equivocating over the meaning of the word "property." Investing in the future performance of a company is distinct from real property. I'm not "against private property." I'm against retard libertarians incapable of understanding the fact that private property is created by government. The abolition of the state is the abolition of private property. Get? rid of all those policemen making sure no one takes your shit and observe the "theft" rates.

By: KbcBerlin. on 26 May 12, 10:55:58
It´s always about status. There are still communities where the whole village help newly weds to build their house. How would a person be seen in a community if they had their house built, and then refused to help in the building of others houses ? The loss of face, status,? and respect would be crushing for most. Nowadays people believe they only have to show they have a lot to gain respect, and status. The loss of the social sanction on how they got the goods is the problem we have.

Very interesting, but I can´t see where this information takes us in todays world with 7 billion plus interacting. Debt is a normally a promise. In trade an enabler.

By: onepiecefan74. on 11 Apr 12, 22:05:17
This idea that barter has? never existed is completely absurd. First the kind of Debt Graeber is talking about is in fact a form of Bartter. Second We've seen relatively modern societies go through barter. Here in America the English bartered with Natives and the colonies of Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina all used tobacco as money since it was popularly traded. Graeber defiantly a provocateur, which is a good thing, but never go off one person, or sides, source.

Historically, gifts + debts -> community community + violence -> state state + monopoly(violence)? -> rights rights -> quantity(debt) + technology -> physical money physical money + organisations -> paper money paper money + violence -> war debts greater than physical -> fiat money. Barter is outside of all of these and normally only occurs when money used to exist or between enemies or complete strangers outside of the state.

By: utubesqueeze. on 01 Feb 12, 03:08:50
@hallavast 1. He didn't "X cows? OR this means war" . He said the concept of money naturally arose from the quantification of debt required AFTER an injury, i.e. as compensation. 2. Regardless of how a state is formed (though most states across all history required copious violence in formation), the state not only has a monopoly on maximal violence, but also from this necessarily stems the rights between entities.

"Violence is ...
By: hallavast. on 29 Jan 12, 16:20:57
"Violence is necessary for money in debts". I think this is descriptive rather than prescriptive. In the situation described, there are alternatives to threatening violence. "X cows or this means war" could be changed out for "X cows or this means an end to our doing business with each other". But even so, violence is not a state. A monopoly on violence is a state.? So the "state before money" idea isn't a necessary truth.

By: homoeroticfood. on 29 Dec 11, 11:57:24
Think about this: there are just as many houses now as there were before the crisis and just as many people who need to be housed. An efficient market would be able to house everyone. So why hasn't it been able to do so? Why are banks kicking people out of houses? The banks have in effect lumbered unecessarily excessive debt on people, and, therefore, on the market? as whole. People are paying $500,000 debts for things which are now worth only $300,000. The banks need to accept that mortgage

By: homoeroticfood. on 29 Dec 11, 11:53:24
The bailout of banks in the US/UK was a total failure. It was meant to 'secure' the financial system via recapitalisation which would allow banks to lend to each other and to firms and to consumers but none of this has happened. People have been left with debt on houses whose values were inflated by bank lending which then suddenly 'lost' substantial value in? a matter of months.

It's not a matter of "the wholesale selling off" or the selling off? of nothing. However, it should be up to the people in each state to demand a referendum on each set of parcels. Should they not want to keep them, they should consider selling them to corp. that haven't ANY international corporate or banking legal -ities.

I'm an art student, and I feel that a many art classes aren't very good. Great art? can open minds and hearts (corny as that sounds), but many teachers are getting paid just to have students dabble around with paint. The entire realm of abstract art is a great example. It's cool-looking sometimes, but it doesn't seem all that meaningful to me. Art is like a language. It isn't an end unto itself. It's a means to expression. How the government should handle this, I'm not sure.

What a lovely slew of hyperbolic arguments that have no basis in reality.? Art is not, and should not, be dependent on government. Once dependent, it becomes controlled.

The big picture is Goldman Sach and EDMC= AI are the biggest scams for grabing tax payers money and putting artist to? work their debts for a century. AI programs are $80,000 dollars or more. Most students dont realise the skills can be learn somewhere heaper and more accredited.

By: BrotherWoody1. on 21 May 11, 19:29:50
The MSM is not other than a distraction---a distraction from the corporate jackals that own them & the govt. in their employ. Art is always about the best within the artist her/himself. It is substantive & unlike the distraction FROM the world of the MSM, it's a distraction that uncovers the best in humanity that is now IN the world. To deprive the young of learning to see the world AS IT IS through artistic eyes is a crime against their humanity & totalitarian cultural hegemony at its? worse.

By: truthout911. on 13 Jan 12, 09:43:26
I didnt contradict myself, I just pointed out to you that all blacks? were not singing the praises of white racist liberals like you. And Malcolm didnt lead a violent move either. He just didnt believe in turning the other check the way MLK did.

By: truthout911. on 13 Jan 12, 09:35:34
The GI bill was for vets for served their country. After? WW2 and Military and Govt spending was cut, then the country pulled out of the depression. But I know the public fool system teaches that FDR was a lord and savior.

Malcolm X echoed a sentiment of a good portion of the black community. You are just made because he? doesnt make white liberals like you look like heroes

By: truthout911. on 13 Jan 12, 09:29:20
The fact of you quoting Liberals like David M Kennedy proves you are a white eugenicist racist, You truly are the product of the public fool system. Margaret Sanger in her own speeches to the KKK said blacks were weeds that needed to be exterminated. That is the trait of the white racist liberal. Try? to sanitize your racism, like you did with Robert KKK Byrd.

Sure your black, ...
By: truthout911. on 13 Jan 12, 09:24:54
Sure your black, you are as black as Britney Spears, NOT. The truth is the truth. It doesnt have? an ideology spin on it. Everything I said was the truth. The revionisim comes from WHITE RACIST HIPPY TRASH LIBERALS like yourself who want to hide to roots of your past. Margaret Sanger loving white liberals who love seeing blacks murdered never change. THat is why you all praise Obama's action in Libya, murdering blacks.

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 13 Jan 12, 08:59:00
Here's the thing...you're an asshat. I'm sorry the truth has a Liberal bias and that you spend your life trying to understand why your life is so shitty, while black males like myself are actually learning factual information as you try and reaffirm your racist and completely misguided revisionist history. Have fun being a racist, a bigot,? and a sexist. I hope you can't have offspring. God knows we don't need anyone else like you on this planet.

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 13 Jan 12, 08:56:16
Everything you've said? is revisionist history. You're a dumb mutherfucker.

My white liberal ass...I think you mean my large, black ass. Btw, when a historia writes a book, it means the content is IN THE BOOK not in the title. His Read the books before you try and defame a Pulitzer prize winning writer. He does praise Sanger for her work with women, but completely rebukes her racist views. Btw, this isn't a video game. You sound like? a fucking tool when you say "game over"

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 13 Jan 12, 08:51:31
ONCE AGAIN, MALCOLM X IS AN EXTREME CASE. He? and MLK did not get along and did not lead the same people. If you want real history, how about you know things that my ten year old brother knows? I mean, you said it yourself. MLK led nonviolence, MX on the other hand, not so much. Stop contradicting yourself.

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 13 Jan 12, 08:48:35

That's right! But whenever you go? to a Jewish neighbourhood, you never see blacks? But asking for a white neighbourhood is 'racist' according to the ADL and other Jewish hategroups? If you want a good explenation, read the protocols of the learned elders of Zion.

By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 23:32:57
Its very arogant of White ProgressaCunts like you to think the only way that Blacks can learn about their? own history is from a White Liberal ProgressaCunt author like David M Kennedy writing propaganda and revisionist history. GAME OVER

You know something ...
By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 23:28:57
You know something now I? have really busted your Lying White Liberal ass. I looked up your Boy David M Kennedy and this tells me all I need to know about you. First this proves you are not black. Second when this guys is writing books like "Social thought in Amer and Eur" , Progressivism, The Critical Issues, and Birth Control in Amer, The Career of Margaret Sanger. Praising this racist bitch as a heroine and champion of the feminist movement. Game over.

By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 23:12:33
Again White Lying ProgressaCUNTS like yourself and running out of koolaid and HOPE AND CHANGE? to sell to the masses and you are getting desperate and you know it. It shows in your post.You and Thom's legs are spread so wide open for Obama that you can drive a Semi Truck thru them.

Again another ...
By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 23:08:35
Again another ProgressaCunt lie Malcolm X was? the most vocal against the so called White Liberal and what they had done to the black community, especially against the JFK admin. His own words in TV and Radio interviews can be found on YT. Plus in his Ballot or the Bullet speech. This the same guy who said when JFK was shot "It was the Chickens coming home to roost" Again Mr Historian you seem to make up history as you go along. Btw Hitler was also a SOCIALIST.

The true civil ...
By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 23:02:30
The true civil rights movements that King and X led were about fighting injustices and ending? wars. The white trash hippie culture were manipulated by the CIA and the drugs introduced to them to bring about more socialism and group think. Again your comrades couldn't have cared less about ending wars, all they cared about was getting wasted. Its now declassified info the CIA brought in LSD and PCP to that garbage culture.

Yeah we all know ...
By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 22:56:25
Yeah we all know that the govt wouldnt never lie to us, like unemployment is a 9% when its at 22, WMDs in Iraq, oh and radiation is good for us. YEAH RIGHT. And MLK never endorsed JFK, that is another one of the White ProgressaCUNT lies. He? did lobby the admin for civil rights legislation, for which they were slow to produce. Malcolm X called them out on that in the day in his Ballot or The Bullet speech. And Unemployment throughout FDR's admin was in the high teens

I? never said ...
By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 22:51:32
I? never said anything about him being conservative, I said he didnt subscribe to your ProgressaCunt values and he didnt. He subscribed to Christian values which are values that ProgressaCunts dont believe. One of them being faith in the Lord. Most of your Atheist or believe in Wicken or Voodoo. The realignment of Black voters began with FDR, he even had members who jobs were specific design to do just that. MR..IM A HISTORIAN. If your really are one you would know that

By: truthout911. on 28 Dec 11, 22:46:15
;Arrogant White ProgressaCunts like yourself have lied to the public, race pimped, and proverty pimped the black community for years,? but now much to you dismay a good number of them are waking up now and getting off of your plantation. The true history of the White Margaret Sanger loving liberal has exposed you and your comrades for the Racist Eugenicist all of you are. Time for you to go to your next sheet fitting, maybe you will see the spirit of your Uncle Byrd

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 28 Dec 11, 22:08:12
Disillusioned simpletons like yourself need to stop putting yourselves on a pedestal, as if you were the Messiah of OUR community. You know? nothing and you are nothing. Don't tell black people things they've known for years, you dumb, misguided, fool.

By: SHARKSMAN12. on 28 Dec 11, 22:06:25
YES YOU DID. You tried to shock me by saying he's a Republican, as if he were some sort of Conservative nitwit like yourself.That's when you were promptly educated on the history of black political alignment.? The realignment of black voters never really flourished until JFK and MLK Sr.'s final endorsement of JFK.That was the swing that helped JFK win by the small margin that he won by.
