Don’t dare talk about classes or utter the term “middle class” in the presence of Rick Santorum. He thinks that’s “Marxism talk”! This clip from the Majority…

I have a friend who worked for Sen Ben Nelson of Nebraska and he always
said that if you asked people in the Senate who is the dumbest Senator in
the Senate almost to a person they said Rick Santorum and it becomes more
obvious with each passing day.
I’m not sure what the point is of taking Rick Santorum seriously about
anything anymore
Is there a current Marxist Nation that has a standard quality of life
greater than the Inhabitants in the US? Marxism to my knowledge has never
lasted or worked long term, It disregards a person to have rights to their
own labor, production, or property. This sounds Anti – American.
Many people in America have built an entire world view based on being
stridently anti-Marxist while knowing nothing about Marxism whatsoever.
I agree. He is a weak president but most of that I believe has more to do
with the restrictions from Republicans. They will block any and everything
that that man does and I think that it has to do with race. I truly believe
that if Barack Obama commenced impeachment proceedings against himself
Republicans wouldn’t support him in it because he would be the one
initiating it! LOL
See that’s where you are wrong. They could temporarily stop the filibuster
so the republicans will stop abusing it. Even the threat of doing that
might make the republicans clean up their act.
That actually does make me really happy. I wish that connection would get
mentioned more.
Republicans truly do want a classless society that’s why they want to shut
down our school system. (Rick wants a classless society. Isn’t that what
the Communist wanted?)
Bill Gates started with nothing without college & he moved.If classes
existed in reality he wouldn’t be able to move to the top. Everyone of u
failed to locate “class” in reality! Where is it I asked! Is “class”
located on a topographical or physical map? Can it be located with a
telescope or a microscope, periscope, thermometer, barometer, ruler,
breathalyzer, sonar, radar, blood test, x-ray, speedometer, sextant. Surely
if “classes” do exist in reality they can be detected by one of these!
Yeah I suppose you are right. With our absurdly large and expensive army,
navy, and airforce (our navy is larger than the worlds combined, yet Rick
Perry probably would raise my taxes to make it bigger) our stupid people
can become dangerous. Don’t worry though. The American people lost their
stomach for war years ago when we got sick of the 2 wars sucking our
coffers dry. I just hope our officials hear us.
Marx did make a few rather unnecessary additions to his idea but at it’s
core marxism is a good idea. A classless society however does sound more
like a utopian notion however, the best we can do is a socialist model like
we had in Eisenhower’s day. Since then we’ve had the added benefit of civil
rights for many different segments of the population added in so if we were
to switch back to Eisenhower’s economic policy and keep with the social
policies made since the 60s we would be in good shape.
The more I hear about certain people having advanced degrees, the more I
doubt the legitimacy in correlating advanced degrees with intelligence.
Since forever Santorum. That’s when.
10 bucks says Rick Santorum get’s caught blowing some dude in the YMCA
shower before the end of the year.
I can only give you my opinion and judgement and i would say the Bush years
have seriously poisoned the water and that poison has different affects on
different nations , us Brits are still at the stage of clutching are guts
throwing up in the bucket . As far as Obama is concerned i think people
think after all the razzmatazz he’s a lame duck with no power and people
think racism probably . Public opinion about America is generally good
though
This guy is still around? He will be running on the “snowball chance in
hell” ticket if he runs. I would prefer if he were kicked out of PA and the
US. I got an idea, it’s pretty wild but, if people do not go to any of his
lectures, stop any requirement to force others to listen to him, don’t
listen to him or tune off any station he is on and ignore the crap out of
him. That is the only thing you can do with guys like this. People like
that are the reason for so much hate in the world.
Besides the misunderstood Marxism statement he made, it’s rather disturbing
that almost everything he accuses the Left being and doing is actually what
the Right is and is doing. I’ve found that a trend over the years of
rightwingers accusing liberals of being racist and full of hate and
violence which is basically what most people think of when they think of
rightwingers. Somehow liberals pushing for equality and peace makes them
racists and warmongers – uh, yeah…. These righties need help
Did Rick say Americans have no class?
Bill Gates comes from a long line of wealth. His father was a lawyer and
his grandpa was the head of a large bank. Gates moved from the top 5% to
the top 1%.
correct. he was also a burglar, an arsonist and a werewolf who feasted on
the blood of innocent virgins
Rick Santorum: since when does america have classes, Ehhm since the
begining of organized society. Dumbass
And people are upset because religious people are statistically less
intelligent than we secularists/atheists. People are arguing about it.
“America is the place where everyone has a chance to succeed” America has
lowest social mobility in the OECD. ie, it is the place people are Least
likely to succeed. watch?v=cZ7LzE3u7Bw Santorum is telling his supporters
to lie.. Ranting lies and denial is all creeps like him do.. moron
corp/cult sales psychopaths stole politics & trashed USA for 1% ruling
class myopic greed cult.
Yep. The nobility and the peasantry..
Let me get you another target, because you’ve just decimated the bulls-eye.
1:59 except Mexicans,blacks,gays,and Muslims
Its ironic for Rick to say America is a place where everyone can succeed,
considering what a failure he is as a person and a politician.
Chewin’ the good stuff, Hey Ricky Boy!!!!!!!!
try to complain about it, YOU SHOULD ALL BE FIRED! You lazy fucks, stop
hating and pull yourselves up by your bootstraps. Why should there be any
government. rules making the playing field more fair for all races to be
able to go to a good college, get decent pay, or make sure there are jobs?
Life aint fair, survival of the fittest, oh wait republican dont believe in
evolution.. Its fucking beyond depressing it really is.. Rick Santorum
should be stacking hay or, in a mental asylum, not politics
Its surprising how often democratic governments employ policies that would
not survive a referendum of the people . Rick perry is your classic dumb
person who is just clever enough to understand the power of ideas and the
power that can be gained over other dumb people with them . And you find
them everywhere .
More more optimistic than I. I hope that you are right and I am just
blowing things out of proportion but from what I have seen he has alot of
opposition and criticism to cut through. Temporarily stopping the
filibuster I think would just enrage Repubs more. They would say things
like: See he is overstepping his boundaries. Or see he wants to destroy the
democratic process and silence those who don’t think along the same lines
as he does. I am so use to their tricks and ruses that’s its not even
A great deal of ho we, generally, talk about society and history are
basically marxist, of marxist roots, owing to Karl Marx. This is awesome.
He was a great thinker.
where are the fucking jobs..shit-tore-him
Marxism is an ideology that promotes a classless society, dumbass. Marx
made the mistake of attatching a few rather unrealistic notions. The core
idea of a clasless society is something america should go toward if this
country is to be anything like it promises.
there’s no need for details. all you kids need to remember is that marx
killed 11 bazillion people
Am i overreacting to what you just wrote when i say i find that all a
little scary . Stupid people with power 🙁
It’s funny because most people attacking marx and marxism don’t know
anything about it. I personally have several issues with the philosophy,
mainly because its models couldn’t have taken into account the modern
world, but it is largely sound, well intentions and certainly not evil.
Marx should be considered an extremely important thinker and taken
seriously, instead he is demonised. (despite a lot of his ideas being
pretty well accepted) Sad indictment on humanity.
Bill Gates was born in a wealthy family to begin with. Class is not
something you detect with some instruments as telescope. but you can
clearly see classes if you look into ppls wealth and power. Even
organizations as IMF and OECD acknowledge class are they Marxist or is it
so they understand statistic and data that show classes. Class is a social
economic construct so it could be removed but it mean you need a different
economic and political system.
Has this guy even taken an economics course? I am willing to bet few of the
people who would vote for him have, so I guess maybe he is playing to that.
These guys prey on the fact that the average IQ is only 100.
agreed
Oh we mostly agree. Its just if I was Obama I would stop carrying about
republican tantrums, take away their filibuster, tell the American people
how they are abusing it and get things done. But then again maybe he knows
something I don’t.
No way Jose; Rick Santorum may have a pretty face but he is part of the
revolving door Washington politics as usual problem. He is an influence
peddler “Middle Man”, special interest representative, selling Washington
influence to the highest bidder. This guy is not it. He represents the
Status quo in Washington.
You couldn’t write satire about a person like him, he would trump the
fiction with reality 🙁
Watching him try to be inspiring gives me the douche chills. Much like
Hillary…
