It makes sense. Some of it was kind of off. It said or implied that we need heavy regulation of the free market. That isn't true. We need lots of oversight, not necessarily regulation. If the market is fair and honest and holds certain values then things are much better. If you have regulation then companies will see the government as another playground to dump money in order to win favor. Pay this senator and get subsidies or tax breaks or contracts with the government. That's how it is now, not because there is no regulation (if there was no regulation of the market then why earn favor with the government if they can't give you anything?) but because there is too much.
Revolution is coming and it is long overdue. I'm thinking something along the lines of the Russian and French revolutions mixed together.
