You are owned

George Carlin was an incredible gift to progressives in this country. I've been trying to talk about the inequality in this nation from this blog, but then I run across this and he nails it - in less than 4 minutes he puts together the very thoughts I haven't been able to put voice to very well for several years. What a great loss that he's gone. I give thanks to the fact that I have followed him since he was the "hippy-dippy weatherman"; bought his albums (when they were records), went to one of his shows, watched his HBO specials and knew that he was one of a kind. A great gift.

Abso-fucking-lutely

George Carlin was a genius in his own right - he saw the world and the nation without the rose-colored glasses.

Good Words on incentives

"Conservatives say if you don't give the rich more money, they will lose their incentive to invest. As for the poor, they tell us they've lost all incentive because we've given them too much money."

George Carlin quote

"Republicans would love to make this a the­ocracy and have America be a kind of Taliban state. But they can do only what they can do, and that leaves room for fuckers like me. I love this country. I love that I get to talk like this."
