Oh... here comes the buthurt democrat. If he said he was right wing, no one would be talking to him.

He showed that plenty of liberals, even among activists, have no clue what they are talking about. Banning corporate profit means all industry is going to die.

The idiot is a troll that shows how those on the right are nothing but filthy animals that will lie to infiltrate democratic events.
These kind of tactics are incredibly childish, and show what kind of trash those on the right truly are. The video also is highly edited with *SNIP*! videos going on left and right.
Not to mention this guy is clearly there to troll, the people he was interviewing are likely (R) plants as well.

Yeah, but they wouldn't talk to them like they were Democrats. The point was to get Democrats to go as far left as they can. You can't do that if you tell them you are right wing first.

If I get asked, should we reduce the government budget by 50% over the next 3 years. I will say no. I won't go along with it, because I know better. People who do go along with it are idiots. However, it seems like you think idiots only exist on right. This video embarrass partisan people like you.

I wouldn't be surprised if you were one of the people he interviewed.

Ratio of CEO Pay to Average Worker by Country | Creativeconflictwisdom's Blog

The ratio of CEO to worker compensation: Are they worth it? | The Economist
In a new paper the Economic Policy Institute, a think-tank, calculates that chief executives at America's 350 biggest companies were paid 231 times as much as the average private-sector worker in 2011. This ratio, which includes the value of share options, has begun to rise again after falling during the recession (see chart).

CEO Pay Grew 127 Times Faster Than Worker Pay Over Last 30 Years: Study
American CEOs saw their pay spike 15 percent last year, after a 28 percent pay rise the year before, according to a report by GMI Ratings cited by The Guardian. Meanwhile, workers saw their inflation-adjusted wages fall 2 percent in 2011, according to the Labor Department.

American CEOs enjoy 15% pay rise in second year of double-digit hikes | Business | guardian.co.uk
There were two years of double digit pay increases for executives (including 28% last year) and...
The boom time for chief executives contrasts sharply with the wider economy, where average wages have been little better than flat. A compensation survey by Mercer found US employers planned average increase in base pay of 3% in 2012. Inflation is about 2.7%.

Thread fail.
Do you not recall Tingles Matthews and Andrea Mitchell trying to do a "gotcha" on Condi Rice following her speech for birtherism?

The hypocrisy fail is yours.

Maybe because he had more economic knowledge than Obama, McCain or Romney in 2008 and predicted the economic crash then when none of the 2008 candidates had a clue.
