Obviously under communism we wouldn't have that problem. Everything belongs to the state!

Obviously...
Administered by The Party to guarantee equality of results for the people.

When the political system allocates capital, it does so for political reasons rather than economic ones. This is why the USSR failed, North Korea is a basket case, Cuba sucks, etc, etc. But of course, the Obamacrats say the answer to the current problems is to let the idiots who caused it have more power so they can solve it! This works well in real life:

Passengers: Captain Obama, the ship is sinking because you steered us into an iceberg! What should we do?
Capt Obama: Re-arrange the deck chairs and promote me to Admiral!
Media: Yes, that will solve everything! All hail Admiral Obama!
Passengers: Glub, glub, glub.

The change we need (as opposed to more of the same).

Comrades,

There is no meltdown. It's all a conspiracy to perversely redistribute wealth to those to didn't need it or wasted it so they'll be better able to waste it, oppress and exploit more, and take still more next time around.

I suspect Dr. Kurgman would agree with this.

Yes, a new slogan for the slogan-challenged: From each according to his ability, to each according to his greed!

The new slogan may be a bad idea. The change we NEED is to find people who are NOT corrupt lying vacuous hacks. Obama does not satisfy this requirement, but he is definitely Change (Some People) Believe In. Unless "Change We Need" refers to his slogan...

Comrades,

Comrade Opiate of the People has proposed a wonderful new slogan, but I fear it faces a semantic dilemma:What is "greed"? If its the forced appropriation of goods and services to be redistributed, then bring it on, right? But if it's palin--er, Freudian typo: plain--old-fashioned capitalist "greed," it's bad, very bad.

I am in discussions with officials at YouTube to remove this blasphemous smear of our great Comrade Obama.

Have a Glorious day :)

Will clarify, Comrade: it is Socialist style greed, where the masses do what they are told and the Party elite collect the benefits. For example, under Socialist equitable national health-care system, worker who contracts disease that requires expensive treatment will be told "Sorry, the People can't afford it" and is expected to crawl off and do his duty (i.e. croak) like a true Revolutionary. However, member of Party elite that contracts same disease will not only get treatment but will be shipped off to Monte Carlo or Hawaii to recuperate. Why? Because member of Party elite is more valuable to the People than simple prole, of course!

Capitalism:
A few have much, most have some, a few have little or nothing.

Socialism:
All have little but elite have lots.

Obamunism:
Obama gets everything.

As this simple comparison demonstrates, capitalism is the worst system because it is the most unequal.

Change we need!

Does anyone know of a "music-free" version of this video resides? I would really like to keep sharing it with people who REALLY need to see it.

State organ Time-Warner has finally pulled this vile attack on the saintly congressional leadership. Use of music by radical, capitalist lackeys is forbidden.

The hideous and horrible reactionaries over at nicedoggie.net have a version that skates by the just wrath of the People's Media Giant, Time Warner.
