You Are Currently Watching: America Has Peaked
Posted In: All Videos, Political VideosComments: 175 Responses
I read somewhere that an obesity epidemic is an indication that an empire, or dominant country or whatever you want to call it, is on a decline.
That got me thinking, wow, there are a ton of fat Americans nowadays. Does this mean that the US is on its way down, too?
There seems to be a lot of evidence that America has seen its peak. I hope it hasn’t. Because, you know, I’m an American and all. What do you think?
March 12th, 2010 at 9:35 am
[..YouTube..] The organ music was kind of creepy. However, I think we still have a chance to turn it around, I don’t think we’ll take it though. It will get worse before getting better, but maybe we will be better for it.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:35 am
[..YouTube..] everyone hates america now i dont personally but i can see why others do
March 12th, 2010 at 9:37 am
[..YouTube..] Maybe it’s time for a new worldwide economical system.America and peace..?? Hmm.. that would be interesting.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:37 am
[..YouTube..] Peaks and valleys. Lets work towards another peak. I tired of being hungry
March 12th, 2010 at 9:38 am
[..YouTube..] America has certainly peaked in terms of beeing the most dominant nation on earth. Since the end of the cold war the US has been the only superpower. That is over, with sleeping giants like China and India waking up. The current crisis speeds up this process. However, that doesnt mean apocalypse is behind the corner. There will be economic growth again. The problem for america is, how to make sure every american benefits from this economic growth, not just the top 10%.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:39 am
[..YouTube..] ur fat too ,not?
March 12th, 2010 at 9:43 am
[..YouTube..] America as number one? What are we number one at? War spending and movie exports?
March 12th, 2010 at 9:47 am
[..YouTube..] The 2010 election may very well be our last chance to change this nation for the better.All “career” politicians MUST GO.*WE* enforce the term limits! We do this by VOTING THE BUMS OUT!Anyone who is a career politician (yes, even Ron Paul the 33rd degree Mason!) must be VOTED OUT.In their place we WRITE IN people in our communities that we think would do a better job.DO NOT USE A NORMAL BALLOT. INSIST ON A WRITE-IN BALLOT.A normal ballot will only give you a choice between 2 evils.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:50 am
[..YouTube..] Hahaha, totally! We are best at American Idol too don’t forget.
March 12th, 2010 at 9:51 am
[..YouTube..] No More Government!
March 12th, 2010 at 9:51 am
[..YouTube..] it’s a de-evolution of the human spirit in America. Free market and Government are just tools. it’s the culture and consciousness of the people that has to change in order for the next step in increase in margin of growth.
March 12th, 2010 at 10:21 am
War? *ears perk up
March 12th, 2010 at 12:21 pm
Great topic! I’ve been pondering this lately–and long wondered how we are a superpower, especially traveling through the belly of this country or watching reality tv. Ultimately, I think our innovation will save us. Even while it kills us. Have you seen this site??

I think that America needs to compete against technology, and indepent companies in form of a fast rail system that they have in Japan and Europe, and the track for the future of other economies this can make the US to be number one in certian things.
Firs they need to privatizie Amtrak and let other rail companies to make competition against Amtrak like I wanted to start US Rail the first and only rialway company that has fast rail before Amtrak does it migh let Amtrak go out of bussiness, like companies in other industres in America has done for years we all miss those glory days that US based auto companies out of the big 3 competed against them let thos glory days comback and we need it here in this country.
March 12th, 2010 at 5:20 pm
It’s not really the nation itself but the people in it that declines.
I’m not American but as a citizen of allied nation, I can sense that USA isn’t no longer a leading country of the world. But it’s not just US but Japan or lots of developed countries are same. And there aren’t tremendous developing country either. Maybe China is growing now, but I guess they will start shipping extra labors in ten years or less.
But please cheer up, if Americans aren’t growing much less the rest of the world. You aren’t carrying the world on your shoulder but the world is following you.
March 13th, 2010 at 12:49 am
Yup, I think the U.S. is in its final days as the top dog. Yeah, as long as there’s a world like we know today, we’ll be towards the top, but as far as being the nation to be, nope.
MANY countries have better healthcare systems than we do–hmmm, a popular, or unpopular, topic right now. We suck at education. Quite a few European countries have us beat on that front–not including other continents. China and Japan–Japan being more at the moment–have a lot of our debt.
I think we are running on borrowed time right now. When I was stationed in Germany a few years ago, this was PAINFULLY obvious. We are not doing well on the world stage. I’d like for us to being better, but we are WAY too focused on pointless nonsense and too many are way too opposed to our current President for no good reason. Too many ignorant people in the country at the moment. They are just not willing to look at what is around them and think about the situation. The past can tell us a lot, but solely living in it will lead to nothing but trouble.
Thanks Lori for address this issue!!!
March 14th, 2010 at 6:29 pm
[..YouTube..] I’m not sure being in a lot of debt to drive big vehicles and shopping at big box stores to make our homes look like the ones we see on TV should be considered peaking. I think there is hope yet for something different and better in the future.
March 14th, 2010 at 6:39 pm
[..YouTube..] The rich are not getting richer. Everyone is getting poorer. If the rich were actually getting richer the unemployment numbers wouldn’t be so high.America has not peaked, it is being systematically destroyed from within. Bush and especially Obama have been spending our nation into debt like we have never seen before in the history of the world.If we can throw Obama and Congress out and start over with true fiscally conservative candidates, America will recover in less 2 years.
March 14th, 2010 at 6:48 pm
[..YouTube..] I had to see those rocking tits.
March 14th, 2010 at 6:53 pm
[..YouTube..] No.
March 14th, 2010 at 7:35 pm
[..YouTube..] @chop98 i think she means reached the height of our power and potential, and now the only way is down and some other Country will get to rise to no. 1 now.
March 14th, 2010 at 8:03 pm
[..YouTube..] I haven’t peaked yet. You need to wear something sexy to help me peak. As for the country, yeah, we have ALL had it so easy. I just sit around my estate and collect millions in interest on my money. Really getting tired of it.
March 14th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
[..YouTube..] @ijust1: Simple. While the Repubs _use_ healthcare as a convenient tool, they are really appealing to their racist base that cannot abide a Black American as President. Lol, market-based healthcare? Please, take off your Republican-colored glasses, the whole goddam healthcare insurance industry is dominated by oligopolies, unbelievably brutal recission and pre-existing condition policies, and bunches of other horrifying crap. If you’re for that, you’re an idiot, lol !!!
March 14th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
[..YouTube..] The hair groping boobs was not an accident. It’s her attempt to get more views than Jackie Mason, who’s been getting more views than Lori, lol!!!
March 14th, 2010 at 9:51 pm
[..YouTube..] nicholas9999 – Shove your over used fake race card up your ass, nobody cares if their called a racist by a liberal anymore!
March 14th, 2010 at 10:56 pm
[..YouTube..] Lori…. you need to visit Scandinavia.You are already open minded and clever. Living in Scandinavia will give you an even more open-minded view on things. You will probably find that most Scandinavians are better off than most Americans (will this surprise you?), but you may also find that there are some problems with those systems of society as well.Go there – please. You will end up so much smarter from it. But make it at least a month.
March 14th, 2010 at 11:02 pm
[..YouTube..] While it’s true that the insurance and healthcare system has it’s problems, government is not the answer. The biggest healthcare industry out there denies more claims and denies more care than all other insurance companies COMBINED. Which company? Medicare and Medicaid. That’s right. The one run by the government denies patients and rejects them based on age. This is what Obama wants grown by 7500%? No thank you!
March 14th, 2010 at 11:10 pm
[..YouTube..] Great video, good points. The seriousness of the polarization between the right and the left is reaching critical mass. We have to remain cognizant of the fact that there are people that disagree with us, and we shouldn’t demonize them for thinking differently.I’m afraid that our current administration is pushing to hard, to fast on their agenda. They are putting a lot more at risk then just simply new legislation.
March 14th, 2010 at 11:12 pm
[..YouTube..] What is your goal with this video? Your conclusion is certainly debatable but your premise and supporting arguments are illogical. Also, this video is consistently self-contradictory.
March 15th, 2010 at 12:10 am
[..YouTube..] another example of that youtube-choppy-edit vlog style, but its cool, i put it on mute and enjoyed the scenery
March 15th, 2010 at 12:39 am
[..YouTube..] One word describes what has happened in America. GREED.
March 15th, 2010 at 12:40 am
[..YouTube..] nice tits
March 15th, 2010 at 1:09 am
[..YouTube..] The only consensus is consensus for the individual only their own lives. The rest does not exist.
March 15th, 2010 at 2:07 am
[..YouTube..] We haven’t won a war since 1945, oru money is worth less than ever, our unions have been busted, our health-care system is amongst the worst in the world, our politics have become polemics, we are fat and lazy and scared of everybody because they hate the corporations that run this country and all we can think about is whether we should buy a PSP, Nintendo or WII. Maybe you think things are just fine and it’s all Obamas fault. I think we need to wake up and smell the shit we’ve been sold!
March 15th, 2010 at 3:22 am
[..YouTube..] its an easy thing to say but its this attitude that’s doing more to hurt this country than anything else.
March 15th, 2010 at 3:33 am
[..YouTube..] Obesity is not s sign of living well in the us. Most people who are obese are poor, it is a poor thing. There is a huge lower class in America that people call middle because no one wants to be in the lower class. That is the problem there is a huge divide between rich and poor and there is hardly a middle class.
March 15th, 2010 at 3:58 am
[..YouTube..] .NO. We’ve only just begun.The seeds of change have been sowed and are now begining to sprout and take root. People are beginning to wake up and realize the current “liberal’/”conservative”, Dem/GOP system is BROKEN and OUTDATED, and that there’s a new 3rd way.Libertarians are the FUTURE.Freedom is Brewing…Ron Paul 2012.
March 15th, 2010 at 6:43 am
[..YouTube..] Good! It may very well be the thing that this country needs to right itself. We’re too out of touch with reality.
March 15th, 2010 at 8:19 am
[..YouTube..] its a nation hunny nation technically each state is its own country “each state having different laws” keep it up but we live in a NATION!!
March 15th, 2010 at 10:14 am
[..YouTube..] Dude… less than 20% of the american population has a college degree… out of those 20% of ppl who do have a degree, more than 90% are Indians and chinese…. V lead too comfortable a life to work hard man…. N now that we have come crashing down, it seems to me that there is noone who can pull us back up…. The media isn’t giving out all de stats about our current crisis to the rest of the world, cuz if they did, the whole world would know how deep we are in shit! We have lost respect man!!
March 15th, 2010 at 2:44 pm
[..YouTube..] Those of us old enough to remember the 1970’s have heard all this before — a long list of our ‘insurmountable problems’, and dire predictions of our inevitable downfall. — Then came Ronald Regan. Americans prosper when we act like Americans – and we suffer when we forget who we are.
March 15th, 2010 at 3:40 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster41: Lol, excuse me, but your violent reply is indication that you don’t like being called a racist!! But let me be clear, I’m not playing a race card — we as a society are NOT post-racial — instead I’m pointing out a cultural meme that still exists, has great power, and is being played upon by Republicans, even if, sometimes, they don’t realize what they’re doing!!! Live with it, deal with it!!
March 15th, 2010 at 3:44 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor: And you are referencing what in this attack on medicare/medicaid? Please provide any sort of reasonable data or other backup for your assertion. More pertinently, as you know from reading the papers, the current proposed plan has not even a public option. Are you against the proposed reforms (no recissions, no pre-existing conditions, etc.)?? If yes, what the hell is wrong with you, lol?? Thanks.
March 15th, 2010 at 3:59 pm
[..YouTube..] I was under the impression we won the Gulf War pretty handily.
March 15th, 2010 at 4:00 pm
[..YouTube..] Maybe. Perhaps we will have to cut back on our excesses if we want to survive the future.
March 15th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
[..YouTube..] @nicholas9999- If a black person calls themself a conservative, the liberals will call that person an uncle tom and a traitor to his or her race. Liberals are for womens rights, as long as the women is a liberal. The slaves were freed by a republican president (no Lincoln was not a fucking liberal). The civil rights act of 1964 was passed by a majority of republicans, Al Gore’s dad voted against it. Liberals are the real racist in this country!
March 15th, 2010 at 5:12 pm
[..YouTube..] By setting our goals to please the oil companies we were able to achieve a limited victory. We should not have been there in the first place. and the long term results have been catastrophic. Leaving Saddam in power was a major mistake: once we were there we should have taken him prisoner.I guess you could say we won in Grenada, too. and San Salvador and Panama. We’re like the bully on the block, picking on the little kids with glasses.
March 15th, 2010 at 5:19 pm
[..YouTube..] @OriginalBeast it makes total sense when it’s cheeper to eat off the dollar menu that to buy fresh fruits/veggies.Also there is a divid but the great thing about the U.S. is anyone can cross the divid with hardwork and preserverance.
March 15th, 2010 at 5:24 pm
[..YouTube..] I respectfully dissagree. There have always been hard lines and dissagreements between parties. That’s what makes democracy work… the ability to dissagree and fight for something. The US will never be the same, yes, but nothing is… it will always grow & change, wax & wane. I for one prefer the present as apposed to living in the US in the 60’s for example.
March 15th, 2010 at 6:28 pm
[..YouTube..] this stupid vlog has peaked, that’s for sure.
March 15th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
[..YouTube..] Nicholas9999, According to AMAs National Health Insurance Report Card, Medicare denies 6.85 percent of its claims, higher than any private insurer and more than double any private insurers average. Now, if we take that broken program and add 181,000,000 people to it, do you think the quality of care will increase? You are foolish if you think the end game is not a public option. There plan to put insurance companies out of business will result in socialized health care.
March 16th, 2010 at 1:02 am
[..YouTube..] It is creativity that fueled the industry which was both protected and policed by the government which was in turn were accountable to the voters which made America but today we have a unified commander in chiefdom which is in the business of recycling the same old wood with a new face in front, likes of Bush & Obama, the only new guys the rest is there to make sure the creativity that might bring new industry which they know very little about is stopped at all costs…continued
March 16th, 2010 at 1:02 am
[..YouTube..] as they help GM kill the Saturn deal with Mr. Penske an all American entrepreneur but they keep Buick & Cadillac the first one is a car for the dyeing {old} & the 2nd is for the dead {hearse} kidding aside that means they have a guarantied clientele for the next fiscal year and a guaranteed brand failure the next year this way they can say they tried but it didnt work , while there is a big financial reward in foreclosures ,they all get big money brand is closed no pesky union guys to pay ,
March 16th, 2010 at 1:03 am
[..YouTube..] & This applies to the whole world today…why do something new when you can be in a junk yard business Gaus
March 16th, 2010 at 3:57 am
[..YouTube..] Not true. That work hard thing is a fairytale. The US is very classist and everything is set up to keep the rich richer and poor poorer. There are poor people working 3 jobs. It’s hard work and it still doesn’t get them anywhere. Just look at the school system it is funded by districts you live in a poor district you’re gonna have a shitty school. That’s classist and has nothing to do with hard work.
March 16th, 2010 at 5:42 am
[..YouTube..] Greed must go. No more corrupt leadership.
March 16th, 2010 at 6:58 am
[..YouTube..] MY God you are annoying. If you weren’t good looking you’d have about 4 subscribers. You clearly know nothing of history. Nothing.
March 16th, 2010 at 6:59 am
[..YouTube..] Most accurate quote:”Personally I have no idea.”You don’t.
March 16th, 2010 at 10:20 am
[..YouTube..] Then my life is a fairytale! and I know plenty of people who are right there with me!
March 16th, 2010 at 12:11 pm
[..YouTube..] Neither, it would seem, do you. Of course, that is an assumption since you haven’t referred to any sort of history specifically, leading me to suspect that you don’t. That said, the most cursory comparison between the US today and Rome (or most other major empires for that matter) during its decline would lead one to suspect that the US is descending from its zenith.
March 16th, 2010 at 6:29 pm
[..YouTube..] @hugh: I can see you’ve fallen way off the deep end. All you can do is make accusations, any of which are palpably and obviously false, or you go way back in time to dredge up some distant crap. Can’t you see that the Republicans are playing horrible politics — they vote in one huge block, trying to destroy everything Obama is trying to do. If you think all of Obama’s policies are bad, there is something wrong with your brain, lol !!!.It’s racism !!
March 16th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
[..YouTube..] @wb: Yes, you have found ONE number that LOOKS bad. I found this was true while reading the various news reports of the AMA __preferring__ Medicare’s coverage generally. But I have no explanation — I’m sure it has to do with needing more information or some other technical explanation. But you really show yourself when you say that the big aim is to put ins companies out of business. Man, what paranoia, lol!!! So, the one thing that could get Obama NOT elected in 2012 is his key goal, right???
March 16th, 2010 at 7:34 pm
[..YouTube..] Dont you just love getting stupid comments like the ones from Krp8dm?you asked a simple question and got attacked by this troll for it.Yes, in many ways the world has reached the end of the line, terrible, dark days are ahead.
March 16th, 2010 at 10:00 pm
[..YouTube..] I want them to try to destroy everything Obama is trying to do. If you think social medicene and cap and trade are good for america, then you’re a moron. Wait till novemebr bitch!
March 16th, 2010 at 10:21 pm
[..YouTube..] @hugh: If you think asking the private sector insurance companies to play by some rules, so they are not screwing people out of their health care, is called “social medicine,” then you’re completely nuts! If that’s what you’re voting against, then you’re truly an idiot. What the hell is wrong with cap and trade? It’s just a way to get everybody to quit emitting so much crap into the air. Jeez.
March 16th, 2010 at 11:10 pm
[..YouTube..] nicholas9999- Cap and trade is about control of everything including the air you exhale. You just proved that you have no clue. I am amazed that you really believe the goverment is just out to help you. Social medicine is also about control, don’t be a fool!
March 16th, 2010 at 11:11 pm
[..YouTube..] Nicholas, It’s interesting that you ask me for proof. I give you proof. You come back with nothing. As far as my paranoia is concerned, perhaps you are right. I don’t trust this man for a second. His intentions are so screwed up that he makes me very nervous. Either he has no clue how capitalism works or he understands it perfectly and understands how to destroy it. Everything he touches falls to pieces. As far as 2012 is concerned? If we still have a democracy, he will not be elected.
March 17th, 2010 at 1:47 am
[..YouTube..] Back in the early 60s Khrushchev told Kennedy that we would spend ourselves to death, and if we continue at the present trajectory, he will be right. It probably sounds cliched, but sometimes you have to acknowledge you have a problem in order to fix it.
March 17th, 2010 at 9:13 am
[..YouTube..] Yes , the US has peaked.The worrying thing is that it is Chinathat now has all the money and power.
March 17th, 2010 at 10:48 am
[..YouTube..] just look at us everything is backwards. everything is upside down. doctors destroy health. lawyers destroy justice. Universities destroy knowledge. governments destroy freedom. the major media destroy information. and religions destroy spirituality. MICHEAL ELLNER
March 17th, 2010 at 11:10 am
[..YouTube..] The lack of a social safety net in the US leaves everyone frightened for their safety and well being. As a result, everyone who has any advantage is looking out for himself or herself only and screwing over the innocent and well-meaning people.That is why- Doctors are preventing care.- Judges are unjustly putting people in prison.- Educators abandon the gifted.- Universities scapegoat students who speak up.- The media cover up truths and spew lies.- Bankers are harming savers.
March 17th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
[..YouTube..] i don’t think (n)america peaked its just goin through a rough time it happened before and we’ll most likely get through it
March 17th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
[..YouTube..] Yes , the US has peaked. The high developed „civilization is like a carousel and now slowly turning back to China, where it was before… over 1000 years. I guess. We will see the consequence maybe 20 years later. 5*
March 17th, 2010 at 5:49 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster: Lol, what leads you to believe that cap and trade is a huge control scheme?? It is about trying to lower emissions that we are producing here in the U.S. That is a worthwhile goal, as we humans are warming the planet at the moment. We’re not going to have “social medicine.” At the moment, we don’t even have a public option in the HC bill. Where are you getting your information, jeez??!!
March 17th, 2010 at 5:52 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor: You’re right, I don’t have the precise argument at the moment, but you’ve got to realize that you picked out the one number that looks bad for Medicare. Given that such a number should be a great problem for doctors, why do all the reports talk about their being happy with Medicare??? “Everything he touches falls to pieces” ??? Lol, where are you getting your information? The guy is utterly streamlining and improving the executive branch, enforcing national security carefully.
March 17th, 2010 at 5:54 pm
[..YouTube..] The earth has not warmed for 10 years. Cap and trade is a tax on C02, period.
March 17th, 2010 at 6:38 pm
[..YouTube..] American patriotism has gone down the fucking drain thats for sure, everyone is “gimme gimme gimme” and don’t care about screwing our future generations.
March 17th, 2010 at 7:23 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster: So now you’re saying that anthropogenic global climate change is not real?? Cap and trade is a scheme intended to limit the amount of CO2 put out by a given country. The idea is to set a maximum allowable amount on emissions and then allow different emitters to trade permits to emit. It’s a clever scheme that allows flexibility. We can’t keep on allowing our whole country to ruin the global climate — that’s completely out of the question.
March 17th, 2010 at 11:12 pm
[..YouTube..] @nicholas9999 What Dr is thrilled with Medicare? None of them. Medicare is charity work. They loose money on every medicare patient and make it up on those who pay. Not sure where your getting that kind of information. Yes he is streamlining the executive branch by replacing anyone who believes in the constitution with Progressive Marxists. As far as national security is concerned, we have never been so vulnerable. You are drinking from the CNN koolaid. Wake up! You have been duped!
March 17th, 2010 at 11:56 pm
[..YouTube..] This downward trend accelerated in the 1980s. Recalling that decade, I remember it as being a hyper-reality, like an episode of Miami Vice. I suppose the rationale of many was live for today and enjoy excess on credit because the nukes will fall tomorrow. Darn! That didn’t happen. The Clinton and Bush years also seemed unreal. On the one hand, Clinton was encouraging sensibility while getting bjs in the Oval Office; and on the other, Bush decides to spread freedom and values…
March 18th, 2010 at 12:01 am
[..YouTube..] at the point of a Cruise missile throughout the world. Hell, even the tiny Republic of Georgia took on Russia because they believed that fleets of US warships would come to their rescue. I guess the stupidity was contagious. While the promise of hope came with Obama, I was uncomfortable with so many thinking they were voting for Superman. Maybe the US is becoming a super-sized comic tragedy, bent on falling on its face into the abyss? Or, maybe that superpower moniker was all hype? Stay tuned.
March 17th, 2010 at 7:33 pm
America has peeked ! sorry to say ! Blame the special intrest groups of the late 80s and 90s. Home builders assosiations, Bankers, incurance companies, Big general contractors ,ect……… Hey ! and dont forget WALL STREET ! Another sad point to make is our own people sold us out. Im sure most of them are eating and sleeping well while the rest of us is worried about keeping our utilities on and losing everything we have and heading homeless. TRUE STORY.
March 18th, 2010 at 3:38 am
[..YouTube..] “Yes , the US has peaked.The high developed „civilization is like a carousel and now slowly turning back to China, where it was before… over 1000 years. I guess.We will see the consequence maybe 20 years later. 5*”
March 18th, 2010 at 8:15 am
[..YouTube..] your debt.
March 18th, 2010 at 4:38 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 To tell you the truth, that seems like a reasonable argument. So why aren’t they making it — I have no idea!! Maybe it is because they don’t have to deal with some nitwit that is trying to turn their claim down, I just don’t know. But seriously, you lost me at “Progressive Marxist” !! Lol, c’mon, these are just regular folks. Wy are we vulnerable on national security? Obama is the best Prez we’ve ever had (but he’s Black!).
March 19th, 2010 at 12:23 am
[..YouTube..] @nicholas9999 Now I know you are out of touch if you think Obama’s cabinet members are not Progressive Marxist. THEY HAVE GONE ON RECORD. Over half of his Czars are ADMITTED Marxist or Socialists. It’s public record. If that’s your definition of “regular folk” I’m very concern. Not sure what your final statement was about him being black has to do with anything.
March 19th, 2010 at 3:04 am
[..YouTube..] i l o v e y o u l o r i
March 19th, 2010 at 2:17 pm
[..YouTube..] You seem so much more negative these days. I hope you’re ok.
March 19th, 2010 at 8:31 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 Actually, that IS my definition of regular folk, I suppose. Do you have any evidence for these ADMISSIONS??? Maybe my definition of socialist is different from yours??

[..YouTube..] Nicholas9999, you are so far left that you may be beyond hope, but I will try. 30 of Obama’s 42 Czars have gone on record to show that they have Marxist or radical socialist agendas. You will have to do your won research. Check out Dan Jones self-described communist. Mark Lloyde FCC Czar who wants to eliminate freedom of speech. Cass Sunstein who believes animals should be able to sue people. These are just 3 of his 42. This does not even begin to cover his advisers and spiritual leaders.
March 21st, 2010 at 6:59 pm
[..YouTube..] @nicholas9999 -Global warming is a scam, the american people have woke up and your religion is dead!
March 21st, 2010 at 7:55 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 I will have to do my own research??? I don’t think so. Please go ahead and substantiate your claims. At the very least, provide some form of citation. Lol, the Cass Sunstein mention is funny — if the owner of a pet sues a person for an infraction against his pet, not sure there is anything wrong with that. And how is that “leftist” or Communistic?? Seriously, man, these accusations are completely crazy.
March 21st, 2010 at 8:12 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster41 Global climate is not a scam, as the vast majority of scientists will attest. The American people support the notion of collaborating with the best minds and moving forward on this. You’re a sick puppy.
March 21st, 2010 at 9:25 pm
[..YouTube..] Phil Jones has admitted the data is not accurate and the earth has not warmed in 10 years. You must be the last person to believe in this fraud. How many carbon credits have you bought from Al Gore?

March 23rd, 2010 at 3:50 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster41 Huh?? you mean IPCC wants control of business and energy??? Are you completely nuts!! How would that work? Do you somehow imagine that the IPCC is going to profit from anything other than honest research?? There’s no reason to distrust IPCC? IPCC would have no way of receiving revenue as a result of any wealth redistribution.
March 23rd, 2010 at 6:17 pm
[..YouTube..] “honest research”, did you not read the stolen emails. The IPCC is part of the UN, the UN would control the money from wealth redistribution. WAKE THE FUCK UP!
March 23rd, 2010 at 8:09 pm
[..YouTube..] @hughster41 @hughster41 The UN is going to take our money by using the IPCC, lol??!!! Are you completely nuts?? The actual e-mails that expressed frustration with outside views 1) reflect just a tiny portion of the full research effort and 2) are also pretty natural — I’ve assumed even more would be forthcoming. Your conspiracy theories are pretty boring, man. In general, the IPCC is a trustworthy and good group. The idea that the UN would get money in this way is utterly crazy.

March 24th, 2010 at 12:29 pm
[..YouTube..] It’s true. Republicans and Democrats are far to dichotomized these days. To much selective abstraction. I’m sticking to a moderate stance, because that’s what this country needs. I think we could pull it back together, if people pulled their heads outta their asses…
March 24th, 2010 at 11:01 pm
[..YouTube..] Actually the vast majority DO NOT support the global warming scam. The science community is spit on this but people that stand to make a ton of money like Al Gore keep putting out false information.The facts are out there but you have already said you are not interested in facts and research.
March 25th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
[..YouTube..] We actually probably peaked in the early 70’s.Highest Real wages.US OIL production was at its highest.Dollar still tied to gold preventing catastrophic asset bubbles.US image at all time high.(despite Vietnam)Deregulation of financial markets not yet started.And most importantly… Elvis was still alive.
March 25th, 2010 at 1:57 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 Actually the vast majority DO support the anthropogenic global climate change hypothesis. However, there may be arguments within that movement about details. But there is no major argument except one: human beings, owing to their continuous output of CO2 are damaging the atmosphere, a hypothesis that ought to make all of us do our level best to work together out how we can put a stop to this. Most responsible parties are working together to see how we can get this done.
March 25th, 2010 at 9:36 pm
[..YouTube..] Every single empire in the history of this planet has fallen. It’s only a matter of time for the U.S.I think right before the latest depression was it for us. China (thanks to us) or the EU will overtake us soon.

[..YouTube..] I think the Resident needs to travel to the countries where people are doing so much better than in the US. Show me.
March 26th, 2010 at 11:53 pm
[..YouTube..] Nicholas9999, If we doubled the output of CO2 it would take over 100 years to increase the temps by 1 degree. On the other hand if we went back not burning fossil fuels and electricity it would decrease the temps by 1/6th of one degree over the same 100 year period. Both these scientific models proved one thing. Humans have nothing to do with climate change. We can’t increase it or decrease it. By the way, the earth temps started to rise in 1813. I’m pretty sure Ford & GM were not around.

March 27th, 2010 at 11:15 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 Lol, I believe I will trust the opinions and research of long-term climate scientists than I will trust someone on the web!!! I’m sure you have, er, researched your facts, but I’m just going to ignore you when you’re talking about the details of climate because there are people who can render an authoritative opinion and have no agenda or motivation other than making sense out of the data. Let’s give them a chance!!
March 28th, 2010 at 3:24 pm
[..YouTube..] I think America’s peek was just after WW2 and it’s been a slow roll down the mountain ever since.
March 28th, 2010 at 11:43 pm
[..YouTube..] nicholas9999, So what you are saying is you will ignore the facts and trust the people who have no agenda like Al Gore? Al Gore has made MILLIONS off this global warming scam and stands to make even more if the Cap and Tax bill goes through. The only thing that keeps the global warming hoax going is money. The Liberal elites have set themselves up to rake in millions of dollars off this sham. The science is out there, you have to look outside the money stream.

March 29th, 2010 at 6:20 pm
[..YouTube..] @wbtaylor1 So, let me see, you’re saying that all those people in Copenhagen were there to make money?? I’m sure Al Gore has made money off his movie (even tho I believe he has pledged any personal profits to charity). Do we know who exactly are the “liberal elites”?? I mean, who are they by name, and how are they going to “rake in” this money, lol. You are slowly losing your mind!
March 29th, 2010 at 6:48 pm
[..YouTube..] The US peaked quite some time ago, Lori. You peaked more recently, but there is still hope for you to rebound. After all, this is still the USA, home of second chances right?
March 30th, 2010 at 7:56 am

[..YouTube..] Definately peaked. Just look at economic comparisons. The only expanding economies are in the far east where people still have the drive for self improvement. Just look at europe we’ve been struggling for a while with our lack of manufacturing industries. Once the US looses them it will struggle emensely.
April 26th, 2010 at 9:27 pm
[..YouTube..] all she does is talk about how america is bad. she says she loves her country but that is so bull crap. if you really love your country why instead of accepting its down fall and antagonizing its people, dont you actually say a nice thing or two to show how grateful you are to live in this country.

May 7th, 2010 at 5:42 am
You’re correct in your argument speaking of our complacency. Greed has been embraced and compassion seem to have faded as people continue to stay divided in trying to fix America’s problems. I think we are in a time in our history where power in politics along with the perks going unchecked has taken over and it is now a systemic problem that will take its course. Unfortunately the hour glass is indeed past the half way point and our immediate future sadly looks to be business as usual.

[..YouTube..] Lorie what is the secret to your beauty?
June 1st, 2010 at 4:38 pm
[..YouTube..] The last great American decade was in the 80s. After that everything went downhill from there. In my opinion its because of bad government, lack of morals and personal responsibility, bad schools, too much Zionist influence in the government, and too much immigration into the country–even though I’m an immigrant from Asia myself.

[..YouTube..] @supercalifragable im guessing high eyebrows symmetry and long pretty hair oh and slightly slanted eyes
June 3rd, 2010 at 8:45 pm
[..YouTube..] America hasn’t peaked, we jut over used our main moneymakers. First it was stocks in the 1920’s, now it is mortgages. Don’t get me wrong, both will continue to be great sources of revenue in years to come. We just have some catching up to do in technology. Computers proved to be a lucrative field in the late 1990’s/early 2000, and that is just the beginning. Look at Japan. They have EVERY gadget known to man kind! Also, their economy is in good standing (considering the global economic downturn)
June 9th, 2010 at 6:53 pm
[..YouTube..] America peaked in the 50s through the 70s
June 18th, 2010 at 4:37 pm
[..YouTube..] Especially now it has peaked, and the freedom is being taken over. I don’t get why you don’t love the freedom you have in your country? I don’t get why so many people want more government and more regulations? I’m from Denmark and know what I’m talking about. Too much government here, it’s down right scary

July 12th, 2010 at 8:56 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei The difference between America and other empires is that we are a free, open, and democratic society. Yes, America has many flaws, no doubt about it! But, we don’t have political leaders who literally murder each other and imprison and execute people by the thousands in order to hold on to power. In the history of the world, our society is a first. All the other great empires got what was coming to them.
July 12th, 2010 at 8:57 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei Thanks to wide availability of information and educated masses, I think America will be around for a long time. Only when God ends this world as we know it, will America fall.
July 12th, 2010 at 9:34 pm
[..YouTube..] @paydog23 no ofcourse, the murdering… that’s done behind closed doors and masquaraded to be something totaly different and educated masses you mean the american youth which is performing below the avarage of the western world?and you think other empires fell because they murdered? lol…

August 3rd, 2010 at 12:58 pm
[..YouTube..] @paydog23 Wouldn’t it be pretty to think so? (as an educated American, I know you know the American author I just quoted)… yet, the points raised in the video are valid. America’s empire is under pressure the world over, the supremacy of the dollar is waning, and our competition (China, etc.) gains ground in leaps and bounds. I love the land of my birth, but do we do it credit to remain willingly ignorant of the challenges it faces (not to mention the opportunities presented by change).
August 3rd, 2010 at 1:01 pm
[..YouTube..] @paydog23 It’s true, even our worst political leaders haven’t been Ida Amin’s or Stalin’s or Hitlers. And that’s not a fact to reflect upon lightly. Conspiracy theorists, too, might say you’re being naive — Iraq, for instance, looks like a mass execution to some and many aren’t convinced Oswald alone shot Kennedy — but there are some firsts America still clings to. Our constitution, for instance, was a great achievement. Again, though, it’s not clear we’re still #1. Not by a long shot.
August 3rd, 2010 at 6:22 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei I don’t see any evidence of mass murder behind closed doors. Additionally, even an average American youth has much greater, easier, and faster access to information and knowledge than any Roman, Greek, Soviet, Mongol, Persian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Mayan, Incan, Aztec, Abbasid, Umayad, or Spanish(not today’s Spaniards of course) youth of those empires’ respective golden ages ever had. Finally, what will cause us to fall? Can you think of anything?
August 3rd, 2010 at 6:25 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei And yes I think other empires fell due to massive internal corruption and evil. If you look at the history of any empire, you’ll notice that infighting and internal instability almost always preceded the final and often fatal attack by the empire’s enemies. Infighting would weaken the empire, while invaders would finish it off. Now if you claim that we are experiencing significant in-fighting and corruption, then you haven’t been in a third world country LOL (I have and trust me)
August 3rd, 2010 at 8:04 pm
[..YouTube..] @paydog23 Well if you get some kicks comparing yourself to third world nations…do you know what the corruption statistics looks like when u.s. is compare to other western nations? i wouldn’t go parading on that…have you read some of the leaked afghan diaries? atm you’re aiding pakistan which is aiding the enemy in afghanistan, basicly you’re fighting against yourselfs…
August 3rd, 2010 at 9:47 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei How do you propose that America will fall?
August 3rd, 2010 at 10:04 pm

[..YouTube..] well im from europe and i dont know much about america :/ all i can say is Dont get depressed yet you still got very beautiful women…..
(as the one i saw in this video :O )
August 4th, 2010 at 7:22 pm
[..YouTube..] Even if we have peaked, that doesn’t mean it’s all down from here. We could just cut back on some of our excesses and still be rather comfortable, especially those who can afford to do so.
August 5th, 2010 at 4:02 pm
[..YouTube..] America peaked in 1776 and September 17, 1787, April 9, 1865, August 15, 1945, July 20, 1969 and just like the Dow Jones it will be back.
August 5th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
[..YouTube..] @Darusdei Debt is very bad, but how do you think it will cause us to fall? Because we’ll run out of money to give to our lenders? You know the US has never failed to pay back its lenders…eventually LOL
August 10th, 2010 at 8:46 am
[..YouTube..] Its 21th cetury and there is no freedom of speech in America… there is only the down way and not only for US.
August 16th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
[..YouTube..] I don’t think dualism is ever the answer (maybe in fascism/communism: “You’re either with us, or against us!”).. I would like to see a new trend: spectrumism.. No two persons are the same: not even clones (read: twins) and usually people don’t stand opposite to eachother about every matter (why do some republicans vote for a democrats bill or vice versa?!?)
September 4th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
[..YouTube..] By peak, what is your definition ? Growth rate ? Total GDP ?By growth rate, we have peaked. By GDP, we are still number one.
September 7th, 2010 at 11:47 pm
[..YouTube..] I’d say everything is pointing south, i.e. down, for the US… a debt that we will never be able to repay which is still ballooning ever more out of control. A military with worn out equipment, division at home, corruption in government and big business, the continual influx of illegal immigrants, drugs, crime, natural disasters, perversion sold and bought as “normal”, close to 50 million unborn babies sacrificed on the altar of convenience… We kicked God out. What’s left but destruction?
