Al Gore takes aim at “unsustainable” capitalism

Al Gore takes aim at “unsustainable” capitalism. Of course Al Gore is disdainful of capitalism. Capitalism is a system that rewards effort, genius and discipline. Under those standards Al Gore fails everytime. So he prefers the other way of doing things. The one that turns him into a billionaire by taking money from the taxpayer and giving it to companies that he just happens to own.

  • Youth. Wasted on the young.

    Not all the young, just the young and dumb.

    Flash, don't call him little johnny, that name is reserved for the clever little boy in the jokes. ;-)

  • The only capitalism that is unsustainable is the kind of crony capitalism practiced by Gore and others like him.

        • That's the funny part. The regulars here are all against crony capitalism, we rail against it all the time, and along comes Little Johnny, with nothing new to say, acting like we're all for the handouts.

          • What's the phrase? A little smarts is a dangerous thing? Johnny is just snappy enough to realize that maybe America is changing in a negative fashion, but not enough to understand how and why. So being the sophisticate he is, he clamps down on a few left wing talking points, which he thinks makes him look well informed. Unfortunately, he still isn't. He doesn't even really understand what he is parroting. Youth. Wasted on the young.

  • Al Gore is maybe the biggest fraudster I've ever seen in my lifetime. This jackass is out for himself, & only himself. When he goes down, I can only hope it's flames.

    The son of Senator & a man who inherited a large fortune because Oxcidental Oil is really profitable, is telling the world about how we need to save energy through the force of gov't. Disagree with him & he tries to shut you down, & I remember when he & his pain in th ass wife tried to censor much of music I love to this day. Maybe if they were not so blind drunk with power & paid attention to their marriage, maybe he would'nt have been getting sex workers at 5 star hotels. Al Gore & his followers can kiss my ass.

  • Al Gore-Environmental Whore...I thought prostitution was illegal except in Harry Reid's home state? That means Al is just another he/she on the corner willing to do anything for cash....

  • He's just spiteful that Bush stole the 2000 election from him. And yes, I mean STOLE, we all know what happened to florida.....

    I don't know what he would have done as president, but at least we wouldn't have had a multi trillion dollar war on our hands that was started mainly so oil companies can extend their monopoly.

    • Yes, we know what happened in Florida. When all the votes were counted INCLUDING the ones that had been mailed in by military and others living overseas, Bush won. The lamestream media conveniently overlooked that little bit of information. And he CLEARLY won the 2004 election, so there is absolutely no leg for the left to stand on. Morons and sore losers.

    • I'm getting tired of reading the same old bullshit about the oil companies getting their hands on Iraqi oil. There isn't anything to back that crap up, but it sounds good in the occupoop camps.
      If the oil companies had all the oil in Iraq, why is the price so high?
      You're a fucking idiot john.

    • I live in Florida, john. So I DO know what happened here. Why don't you back up that 12 year old bs with a citation? I'm not going to relive the 2000 election with anyone least of all a douche like you but...since you brought it up, back it up or shut up.

      • Poor little johnny...no retort just a thumb down. You are such a pussy, john. An unemployed, live at home, ignorant, leftist pussy.

      • You must realize that you're talking to olivia. Ignorance of this caliber deserves less than any attention. Let these commie dick wads be.

          • Dear John,

            Thank you for your support of the central economic authority. Without the power you demand that government have over the market there is no way we could keep all the competition from handing us our lunch and forcing the creation of a better quality product at a lower cost to all the consumers that could then vote with their dollars that still maintained a respectable value. So from the bottom of our non-existent heart we would like to thank you for all the valuable work you have done to extol the virtues of the corporatist system.

          • His avatar is a typical adolescent avatar. Used by those who have minmal contact with real women. John is young, but like most young people doesn't understand that he has no clue about the real world. He thinks he is amrter than all the adults around him. He thinks he is all sophisticated and cool by using the liberal talk points. Same as the anti war morons during Viet Nam. Everything old is new again.

          • I strongly suspect his room is full of Star Trek and Star Wars "figurines" and other collectables, along with piles of comic books.

          • I referred to you as "her" because you are a pussy. Not because I think you are Olivia. Your avi, as poppajoe once pointed out, is a perfect metaphor of you as the emasculated male. A momma's boy. One does not need to be a psychologist to see that. Now, I'm done with you.

          • Oh, very good. You're a troll, john. There was a time when I patiently tried to explain my rationale and views over at the Safelink thread. Since then you have demonstrated no intellectual curiosity, no willingness to learn, a willful ignorance of what happens in the world, a presumption to claim to know about things when you do not even participate in life. You are unemployed, you live at home, you are naive, and you seem to me to be stupid.
            Surrender? No, john. When you want to actually have an adult conversation, then I will be happy to talk to you. Your incessant occupier and evil corporation crap gets you
            nowhere. You gave up on life and actually being an achiever a long time ago. You are a caricature of the entitlement class so the chances of us actually having that
            adult discussion is probably zero.

          • So you're resorting to call everyone who speaks on here including Olivia and myself a troll or ignorant children. As pathetic as you think my life is, it does prove that people like you have no desire to help those who are down on their luck and would rather see them starve then risk the slight possibility that they could be abusing the system to get a free 10 dollar cell phone.

          • Odds are good the ID is just another, more successful in duping us due to the slightly different argument, of her multitude of personalities. Besides, a total troll is just that.

          • Ignoring the alinsky students is the way to avoid giving them what they want. olivijohn will take several post from several different threads and combine the opposite meaning into it, spew it and see if somebody bites on the bait. Ignore her. Just because she has used this name for so long to scuff the nerves of the non-communists here doesn't mean we should pay her any heed. She says we begrudge needy people because we don't like the idea of the government forcing us to pay for pimps and drug dealers getting extra throw away phones to conduct their bidniz. She won't acknowledge the real words used, only skew those that she can to impugn the non-communists. Pure alinsky tactic. Ignore the bitch here, no matter what name she uses!

          • Further, You are blaming the wrong entity. Corporations don't "steal billions in tax money". How can they? They don't have the power to tax. It's congress who is at fault, They are the ones with the power to tax and redistribute the tax funds. So they use our tax dollars to buy votes by giving out goodies, and they uses tax dollars to ensure donations from corportations to prop up their re-election chances. The real culprits are the members of congress.

          • yet you put the people who get a free 10 dollar phone on the same level of abuse as corporations who steal billions in tax money.

          • Thanks for proving that you don't pay attention. Many here don't approve of corporate bail outs either. That's crony capitalism, not free market capitalism.

          • No...he doesn't call me a troll or an ignorant child. ;)

            And just how exactly does your pathetic life as it is, prove anything about Kick? He is not responsible for your success (or lack there of for that mater), you are. He doesn't owe you (or anyone else) anything.

          • I believe he is going to do what the rest of us are..TD MO..Your MO is to cut and paste the liberal verse of the day....Like the last troll, you can post all you want but the majority will TD MO cause basically your a waste of bandwidth....

  • Al must have made all the money he wants to make now from selling carbon credits to his hollywood buddies. He wishes to change the game now so Al TV along with Keith Blowhard will be on all the TVs in America.

    All the face lifts have affected his brains or what little of them are left.

  • So, what does the earth's core temp have to do with climate change or AGW or anything, period? Surely he had to pay his way onto this show. Surely!
