foreignergrl rated 4 weeks ago- Every time I watch, I'm in awe at how brilliant he is.
From the video: "Consumption is the only true lasting American value that's left. Buying things. People spending money they dont have on things they dont need. So they can max up their credit cards and spend the rest of their lives paying 18% interest rate on something that cost 12,50. And they didnt like it when they got it home anyway."- Every time I watch, I'm in awe at how brilliant he is.

- George Carlin makes some valid points in an entertaining manner here. Consumerism is another form of brainwashing hoisted on the citizenry, rather brutally, by corrupt societal institutions. It is a form of distraction that prevents the citizenry from thinking critically and realizing how murderously hell-filled the world is, largely as a consequence of the U.S. empire, among other things.

- From the George:"Politicians have traditionally hidden behind three things: the flag, the bible and children."

- EVERY DUMB KID TELLING ME HOW OVERLY PESSIMISTIC I AM SHOULD WATCH THIS. THE US (and the world) is in terrible danger. It was made that way deliberately. The fact you think nothing is wrong is because you have been TOO UNDERTAUGHT. Study maths. Study economics.

- George Carlin doing what he does best: Making people laugh and spreading dissent at the same time.
