Omg this makes me so angry because they have no idea what the fuck they are talking about. Glen Beck and his buddies don`t understand the symbolism of the tank metaphor, they just like to add snide remarks to a clip that intends to teach young children to be responsible and expect that same responsibility from their leadership. OH NO, lets keep telling American kids that they are the best and that all those other shitty kids around the world should be kissing their ass and that they deserve to work 14 hour days in sweat shops so you can have some Nike`s. fucking ludicrous shit

What an ignorant piece of shit. The video he is referring has nothing to do political positioning but the way we as a entire species(mostly North America however) are burning through natural resources at an unsustainable rate. What a misleading douche nozzle.

So what does Glenn Beck actually believe the american government is there for, if not to take care of the american people?

Beck`s bit paranoid. But he`s right about the roll of government.

It is totally the duty of the government to look after its people. To suggest otherwise is retarded. That`s why it is involved in the things that look after people, police, military, firemen.

I love how they automatically make the ultimate leap from GOvernment wanting to look after people= communist china. Um, how about all those governments that look after their people and aren`t china or russia, or other insert collapsed system here(that will be the US soon if things keep going this way). How about denmark, Canada, Switzerland, insert social capitalist nation here?

I wish someone would kick Glen BEck in his despotism.

Edit: In no way do I think China is a failed system, but the west does like to demonize it I think as a failed system.

Technically, a government for and of the people, is the people VOLUNTARILY looking after themselves and each other.

Sure that can and does go way out of whack one way and another depending where you look. But the central problem is obscenely rich motherfuckers re-writing and corrupting all the rules and all the systems into pure profit engines FOR THEMSELVES AT PUBLIC EXPENSE. It`s no longer voluntary public good, it`s do what you`re told to make me money.

One of the reasons China is ahead is that they haven`t been able to afford anything above a bare (and cruel) minimum public good. They adopted that ethic enough that they still shoot fuckers who fraud and cheat, at least when they kill people. Unlike in the USA, where fraud and cheat is the premier way to top, and people still cheer for obscene wealth so much they look the other way, as long as it`s not their friends or family who died.

It doesn`t matter what political system it is, if it`s honestly for the public good, it`s all about equal in the end, because everyone has a chance to get a fair share for their work, and they feel happy enough to help each other by whatever means works (taxes, charity). It`s when a few greedy fuckers skim ALL the cream off the top, that everyone gets desperate and ugly and people with problems start falling through the cracks of what should have been a compassionate society.

Lolz at all the China comments. Have you ever been to China? Do any of you know anybody well that has lived in China? They`re actually doing pretty well in many places. The news spins stories that you and I would consider normal into "communistic oppression."

That brings up my next point. We talk about this oppression all the time as if it is the product of capitalism, but what is communism`s responsibility then? If that`s your opinion, then why don`t we talk about their system that doesn`t defend the rights of its people?

The problem isn`t capitalism anyway. Capitalism in a pure form is fine, but we have is a very wealthy, very rich oligarchy running things now. This oligarchical system is confused with capitalism because that`s what our country was built on. Don`t blame capitalism. Blame a system that lets the wealthy corrupt what WAS a much better system of government.

Excellent post by exploder by the way. I agree with him on many of his points.

How about in Article Four of our Constitution?

"The fourth section of Article Four requires the United States to guarantee to each state a republican form of government, and to protect the states from invasion and violence."

I`ve seen that video they are talking about AND what`s happening here is ignorant beyond belief.

Snippets of the video can be taken any which way, they do NOT capture the meaning/point in which the entire video holds.

If someone wants to form an opinion on that video they should watch it themselves.

By listening to some lackey go on about words in a sentence defeats the point of the sentence or idea. He should discuss the idea..

I`m from Australia and, I and many people think America needs to smarten the F**K UP!!

Peace.

Edit: Not all Americans are stooges.. I give credit to the like minded Americans who comment here. Thankyou for your intelligence.

I hate Glenn Beck a lot. How can anyone not understand what she`s talking about, and then rant about it without actually saying anything? It`s meant for children in school, yet he can`t grasp the concept while he apparently went to college for some kind of degree.

anyone who believes the government loves you and wants to take care of you is borderline retarded. I`m not joking, if you haven`t woken up to the truth yet, there is something very very wrong with your brain. start questioning, don`t believe everything spoonfed to you from faux news and glenn beck. fire up some neurons and start researching the BS you hear on tv. If you really care for your health and the health of your children, you`d stop telling yourself that government knows best, and start taking care of yourself.

Glenn Beck= King of taking everything OUT OF CONTEXT, then using it for his advantage
someone slash his vocal chords please, people like him should not be allowed to talk

i dont know how he makes soo much money

P.s: im sick of everyone bitching about how our goverment is not taking care of us, or is having too much control.
Spend a Week or two in Zimbabwe or Somalia, and then tell me how our goverment is.

Glenn Beck makes around $18 million a year. He`ll say anything to keep that ball rolling.
