Did Ed Slip Barney Frank Truth Serum? Admits That Their Goal Is To Increase the Role of Government
It's not often that Barney gets attacked from the left and gets told that he's not liberal enough. It's refreshing to hear the some truth from a politician, when he pulled back the curtain on the liberal's true agenda: more government across the board at all costs.

The game of Monopoly was based on actual principles of economics. Of course, its not just that simple. But its close enough. In fact, if you alter the rules slightly, print some money, grab a bucket of gravel from the driveway, and a simple game of skill like darts, you can simulate almost any element of the economy. Including economic growth, creativity, and ambition. You could even simulate world trade by playing 3 games at once jumping from one board to another. If you want the game to last indefinately, there must be some sort of limit placed on the individual accumulation of personal wealth. Otherwise, the game eventually ends with only one winner. There must be a limit. Nothing else will ever work. If you think you can prove me wrong, give it your best shot. Let me know how the game turns out. Just remember: Its fun to crush the other guy at the kitchen table with fake money, fake resources, and a fake economy. But in the real world, greed causes economic instability, actual hardship, suffering, misery, starvation, and death. Now, test your partisan theories and see if you can make them work. I'll say it in advance: Thats what I thought. Greed kills.

This incredible mess is our own God damn fault. We have become a nation of blithering idiot celebrity-junkie credit card morons. We don't support our local economies well enough. We hardly support small business anymore. We don't supply our troops well enough. Support for legitimate charity is way down. The people of this country won't even get out of credit card debt for their own fucking good or the good of their families. They absolutely will not do the things necessary to revive our own economy or ensure some reasonable level of shared prosperity. But when another filthy-disgusting-rich over-paid celebrity pig in a $500 cowboy hat comes out of retirement because he wants to get even richer, the people of this country drop what they were doing and buy out his next 20 shows in 5 hours flat. Springsteen sells out. Miley sells out. U2 sells out. Madonna sells out. Timberlake sells out. Every seat. Every time. Last year, we spent $400,000,000 on a single fucking movie just to see a guy in a bat suit beat up a dead celebrity. In the last 5 years, we have handed over ANOTHER billion dollars of our money to a single God damned false heroe talk show host lying manipulating hypocrite pig. Everytime a celebrity farts in this country, the people are right there to pay for a whiff and charge it to their credit card. We fall for the most obvious big business, big celebrity, big profit, fake humanitarian, PR crap the world has ever seen and open our wallets every single time. We do all of this without the slightest regard for the OBSCENE concentration of wealth, the shrinking middle class, or the effect had on economic stability. God damn fucking blithering idiot morons. If we are going to be this fucking stupid as a society, then we deserve whatever we get for it. and we ain't seen nothing yet. These shallow signs of recovery absolutely will not last. Maybe another 2 years max. Then, we will sink right back into the worst depression this country has even seen. We are on borrowed (printed) time already. The people should use this brief window of opportunity to get out of debt and into some type of home they can afford to call their own. Something they can leave for their children. Instead, they spend whatever they have left on those filthy disgusting rich pigs who already have way too much. Concentrating the wealth even further. They may as well take food right out of the mouths of their own children. Because they will struggle, fight, live, and die in a shattered society with a shattered economy. God damn fucking blithering idiot morons. It didn't have to be this way.
