Good video that reveals the truth of things.  I have felt this way about the government for a very long time and become even more aware of it during the last two presidencies.  This is one of the reasons why I feel such disgust at groups like OWS and their supporters as they would say the solution to avoid the above happening is to "expand the government and put in more regulations to prevent it". 

I think a good way to tell if you have allowed yourself to fall under the deception of big government is to ask yourself a simple question.  "Are you afraid of what would happen in the event of a government shutdown?"  If you answer 'yes', then you need to wake up fast.  If you answer 'no' then you are thinking along the correct lines.
There are only 10 types of people in the world:  those who understand binary, and those who don't.

The whole world has gone to hell.
Not just the government or religion or the US.

I love that.
That's going on my quote list.

There needs to be an occupy capitol hill and/or white house movement that hopefully transcends party lines.

There was, it was called the Tea Party

Wow that was really something, it shows you that we are in the last days as the bible for told, currupt governments, nation against nation natural disasters, the us has a direct impact on the world economy as a whole and government will never have anyone who will ultimately "change things" I believe the day will come when the US people will her sick of all the deceit numerous broken promises and currupt politicians and start a revolution. If you read throughout history and even through today many great countries a revolution had to take place in order for justice to prevail and emit the greater good......

Thanks for sharing this video..

I wish the guy would post or speak of his sources for info on the matter since he seems reluctant to show specifics. That, and he seems to be grasping at straws when he says things like "Your spouse will vote for the same person you do!". These types of videos can easily become diatribes, so I'm a bit torn on whether he's speaking the truth or just fearmongering with vague statistics.

Oldbuddy, if you could, please update your original post with this link for your video-

Corrupt governments? Nation against nation? Natural disasters? It's really nothing new in all of human history. We're just in a rut right now.

First you say this:

Then you say this:

So which is it? Is the end of the world coming or is the united states going to start a revolution and create a new system of government and live happily for another couple of centuries? It cannot be both.

This.  We'll die from self-inflicted wounds just like other powers have.

No it hasn't, it has always been this way. Maybe you are just startling to take notice.
