Love Beck or hate him.I learned a lot about left vs right and the confusion we have about each other. It also explains much of the tension I feel about the direction of US politics. I like Beck's two axis scale with the x axis running from anarchy to totalitarianism and the y axis describing left vs right. My own politics on this scale is 1791 some positions being right and others left. The two videos are worth a watch. Watch: Timeline — America’s slide toward a ‘total-control’ government Watch: Timeline — America’s slide toward a ‘total-control’ government (Part 2)
I watched both and thought they were brilliant! I am so impressed that I am seriously considering subscribing and, believe me, I don't subscribe to anything unless I am forced to do so. I am also approximately 1791 with many positions Left and many Right. I am also a great admirer of Thomas Paine be also believe he went way too far with his anti-God atheist endeavors. Really interesting videos. I want to own them. Thank you @3M-TA3 . I really enjoyed it and thought it was very educational, actually think it would be great classroom material for independent thinking. Question: Is the series for sell on DVD? Is there a part 3 and 4? Seems like he wrapped it up... EDIT: All, FYI, There are some more free videos to view on The Blaze. I am currently watching one on Communism and another on the new Tax Bill. All of them are interesting and well done. I couldn't finish watching the Tax Bill one which is unfortunate because I still do not know enough about it except it seems that it did not do much to modernize and streamline it.
I actually saw that explanation on one of his broadcasts. Beck may be/ is viewed by many as a lunatic or maybe, just a loon - but the dude understands the underlying politics that we see today.
