they have no expertise in.

2. Ah, but who gets paid more, and who has the wider audience?

Faux standards say "Pshaw" to your puny facts.

[shraby]

3. More pay does not make the person. Speaking truth does.

[dougolat]

10. Yes, but truth is a whisper in a small room, and the lie is on a bullhorn in a stadium. .nt

[Half-Century Man]

13. My words but a whisper, your deafness a shout

Your wise men don't know how it feels...to be thick as a brick.


As was pointed out in the past.

4. Good!

[QuestForSense]

5. And with such ease!

6. To be fair, it's not that hard to destroy Billo.

The real challenge is winning over his audience.

11. Yup. n/t

12. I loved it when Franken Riped Billo many years ago on a book tour

They were on the same stage together and then comedy writer Al Franken got billo to blow a fuse (when Ms. Ivans was with us as she was the hostess). Now that comedy writer is a U.S. Senator and is laughing at that on cluster faux every day.

And for your viewing pleasure is Billo getting reemed by Al on stage. This was the debate about who won an award that Billo claimed he won.

Franken is intro'd at about 11:45.

14. Link to Franken response? This clip is all O'Reilly. I remember this and can find it.

We don't get our "viewing pleasure" in this clip as as.

7. It appears on so many levels

that our elected officials are betting against us. Generosity and benevolence pay off economically. Well-cared for, reasonably secure citizens are better contributors and producers. Except for O'Reilly and his ilk. They roll more with "I got mine."

8. I believe Thom Hartmann made the exact point months ago. nt

9. Tax evasion by rich is way of life in southern Europe.

Doctors making $200,000 a year declaring only $20,000 income for instance. Here in the US we've made it leagal for the rich to not pay taxes.

15. Richard Wolff Should Be Americas Economist

When you want the whole truth and nothing but the truth on economic issues, Richard Wolff
is your go to man. He knows and understands economics better than anyone I have ever heard.
He is able to express the economic issue/conflict in a simple, clean, clear manner, which as
we all know, when you have a highly complex issue, it takes a master to be able to distill
the complexity down into easily understandable thoughts and points for everyone to understand.

16. Did not know of him until now.
