Our system today is heavily regulated because it did not work well. Let's worry about this than non-existent socialism that is supposedly nipping at your ass.Are you suggesting Bill Whittle is a fair and balanced source? lol
If you listen to the OP video the only conclusion you can come to is yes, yes he is a balanced source.
haha, funny.
Simple for you, tell us what he said that wasn't balanced. Or more to the point, what is meant by balanced?
The video is mostly an opinionated commentary piece with little of actual value in the likes of facts or data (the only exception I found was the origination of the word "fascist" which was interesting)
Other then that it's mostly a group of tired cliches (Lincoln freed the slaves, Democrats hated that!....The Nazi's were the national "socialist" party!.....Democrats want to raise taxes so they're greedy!!).....blah blah blah, we've heard it all before. It's just cheap talking points that don't have any relevancy to today's political atmosphere at all.
If you have a video piece with nothing but opinionated commentary and old cliches you can be darn sure it's pretty bias...you might as well base your opinion of political parties off television commercials by the parties themselves.
Isn't all commentary opinion? I see nothing to disagree with his opinion. What is sad is when the left wing, and it happened this week, keep trying to make the case that parties switching, when in fact that never happened and that is the point of the video.
Lincoln did free the slaves.
Democrats had reason to hate the freeing of the slaves and it was not just being hateful it was economic, but as shown they left the Union before Lincoln took office for ONE reason, slavery.
I didn't see the part about democrats wanting to raise taxes but if so that is another subject. His point on socialism is that the left wing is pushing us towards socialism, a system that has neverworked as well as what we have today and is the mainstay of many totalitarian regimes. Do you disagree that liberals, Democrats, are pushing us towards socialism?
The whole switching side BS from the left doesn't fit today's reality either. For it to fit would mean that the left would have to show where the right actually harmed blacks, which is clearly not the case.
