I agree with Jeff in part. Some of these videos are not up to the prior standards of the site. I can also understand that quality videos on the web can be hard to come by and you do have to keep the traffic at a certain level to keep the site paid for, no? This last video set me off at first until I read your commentary. Between the lines I can see your intellectual analysis. I would prefer you illuminate some of these videos with a well written background piece. You could, for instance, write a concise blurb about the history of scapegoating, or the origins of scapegoating CEOs. This would increase the value of the site. If you have any comrades-in-arms you could have them write something as well. Nothing lengthy. I tend to use your site for your point of view and as a kind of filler for all the things I haven’t gotten to reading yet anyhow. This is one denizen’s take. Do any other visitors wish to contribute?

I totally agree that the outrageously overpaid executives should be stripped of their riches as a penalty, but that simply won’t happen. They own the congress. Collectively, they are far more powerful than our government.

People THAT rich make me feel sick. No one person needs half a BILLION dollars while there are others in the same damn country who struggle to buy food and medicine.
