First of all, bigrebnc, slavery is slavery. Nothing else is slavery. Americans are likely the freest people to ever live on Planet Earth, and pretending we have "lost our freedom" makes us look like pussies next to citizens of nations like Iran and North Korea and Communist China, where the penalty for speaking against the government can be death.
Second of the, premise of this video is erroneous. There is no concentration of wealth and power inside the "central" US government -- that concentration exists among US private citizens and companies who hold ever-increasing shares of the nation's wealth. There is no rising tide of government regulation -- since the 1980's, there has been a tremendous shift towards deregulation and privatization. That the shift has proven to be contrary to the interests of the American public, bringing us the Savings and Loan debacle, junk bonds, crappy airline service, runaway greed on Wall Street, identity theft, a foreclosure crisis, a Great Recession, etc. Because of this, there may well be a correction back towards heavier government control.....but this correction is not a signal the end is nigh.
Take a good look at the Gulf of Mexico and then try to tell me we have adequate regulatory control of business in this country.
