Emokid is right, if the whole world would just listen to Carlin we'd be so much better off

first, i have to correct you guys on something. Glenn Beck's not a true Libertarian. he probably doesn't even know what a true Libertarian is. he's nothing more then an old-fashioned Republican. he wants to protect businessmen, like himself (he admits to being a business owner), all the while, not giving a fuck about the working class who is essentially the ones who helps him make more money.
Beck is one of those douchebags that thinks that he did it all on his own. yet, he doesn't admit that his employees are the ones running the business. he's just the one signing the paychecks.
he likes to piss & moan when his taxes go up, but doesn't give a rip if the working man's taxes go up. he thinks that programs that help the working class gets cut, so long as programs helping the wealthy don't get hurt.
believe me......i've watched enough of his programs. while he has some valid points, he's no Libertarian. he's more Republican then anything. when i call him Republican, i'm going off how Republicans were, just prior to the last few years (actually giving a shit about businessmen & the wealthy).
i could rant about how both major parties are now the same, but i'm ranting.
i still believe that Carlin is a fucking God amongst men. i wish society would go back to some of his logic. life would be so much simpler. shit, if you rattle off some of his logic, i could probably name similar examples of stuff that i saw or went through.
while Beck & everyone else blames wrestling for evil things, they forget what it was like actually growing up. some of us grew up in a generation when you actually learned from your fuck-ups. try doing a stupid stunt on monkey bars & get hurt. back in my day, the parents would clean you up, maybe slap a band-aid on you & told you to walk it off. nowadays, you get a million fucking medical exams, including CT Scans, MIR's, breast exams, prostate exams, colonoscopies, rabies shots, X-Rays & just about anything else.....just to find out that a band-aid would've been sufficient.
i can't name how many times i saw my brother go into the doctor for a few stitches, then get sent on his way. why? because he was just a kid that couldn't avoid getting hurt. nobody blamed wrestling, music or anything else. back then, some kids just were just so over active, they would get into stupid shit & get hurt.
these days, my brother would've been given Ritalin & God knows how many medications, just to settle him down. i would've been given medications, because i didn't interact with people like i should have. probably would've been treated for childhood depression or some stupid shit.
Carlin always had a good sense, when it came to just letting shit happen.
