Friday night TV

February 5, 2010
Pediatrician Margaret Flowersspeaks about protesting for change and her recent arrest in an effort to get a Medicare-for-all plan back on the table.

What the hell kind of fucked up political system do we have when the majority of the people and doctors want a public health system and they are shut out of the discussion?

A Roberts Supreme Court System if you ask me. A country not run by We the People, but a country run by the elites for the benefit of the elites to the detriment of We the People.


Libertarian journalist Nick Gillespie and legal scholar Lawrence Lessig discuss public financing of campaigns and the effects of money on politics.

I was so distracted by the thought that Mr. Reason magazine reminds me of a mix between a bad 70's porn star and a goombah that I almost missed how he brushed off legal concerns that he obviously didn't understand. Then again, I don't have much patience with libertarians, or Reason magazine.

The essay was awesome tonight also.
