User ID: 1461638 United States 10/06/2012 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Government should never directly fund any means of public media. Hell, they already have several networks lying for all they are worth for any democrat seeking to gain or retain office without any money officially changing hands at the federal level. Some of them even regularly state on camera how much they love their dear leader. Chris Mathews even gets thrills running up his leg without public funding. Why on Earth would they double down by paying another one on the books? Bunch of communist propaganda-tards.

If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

[link to www.politifact.com] "Fifteen years ago, the assets of the six largest banks in this country totaled 17 percent of GDP ... The assets of the six largest banks in the United States today total 63 percent of GDP." Sherrod Brown on Sunday, April 25th, 2010 in an interview on "This Week." this would cause the banks to become predatory in search of profit and reduce their risk by shifting it to the other party. where would they get their profit? from you and me. |
