I heard on the radio today that at today's prices, the barrel crude oil is shipped in is worth more money than oil itself.

Worst part about this is that south-eastern Minnesota was apparently annexed and my hometown is now in Wisconsin, a fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. They also took all of Iowa, too.

And I guess Michigan borders New York now? OK, I guess it's clear he started drawing the north-west states and then gave up.

His depiction of Fat Cats is great because they look properly predatory and vicious just like the entities they represent.

If Martin Luther King were still alive today the right would try to drag him out in front of a national audience and shove a mic under his nose, sceaming "WHY ARE BLACK PEOPLE STILL SO loving UPPITY. WHY IS THERE RAP. WHY DO THEY KEEP TRYING TO MOVE INTO MY NEIGHBORHOOD. WHY FURGU-SON? CAN'T YOU TELL THESE BLACKS TO KNOCK IT THE gently caress OFF? I THOUGHT YOU WERE ALL ABOUT MAKING EVERYTHING BETTER. WELL THEN WHY DOES MY SON QUOTE ICE CUBE. WHY DO BLACKS KEEP GETTING ARRESTED. YOU KNOW, I THINK YOUR DREAM SPEECH COULD USE SOME RETOOLING."

Depticting Amon Bundy as a rodent suggests he is the prey of the fat cats, but even outside the reality of this cartoon, Amon and his gang of dipshit weirdoes aren't going to be consumed by bankers and their ilk. The man who makes his nickle trading on Wall Street can't begin to care about this non-fiasco. This is Kelly levels of association.

Did you not read the labels in front of the various fat cats? Oil, lumber, mining and so on? Part of the reason these types get so up in arms over federal land is because they want the land for themselves so they can sell the rights to it to these companies to extract resources from it.

If MLK Jr. were alive today, he would have disappeared into anonymity or been arrested exactly as the FBI was trying to do when they were sending him threats, calling him a Communist, trying to destroy his marriage, trying to get him to commit suicide, and otherwise trying to destroy him ideologically. His death caused nationwide riots, and the riots were what sparked the greatest changes of the Civil Rights movement.

Pener Kropoopkin: Jan 30, 2013

The Mormonism of the Oregon Militia has been one of the most underplayed elements of the story so far. Mainstream outlets are just really uncomfortable when it comes to talking about Mormonism for some reason, even when Mitt Romney was candidate.

There's a common conspiracy theory among these types that the Federal government is sitting on untapped resources of gold or oil at these sites. As opposed to the Feds just ending up holding all the worthless land that nobody wanted to settle in the first place, and making use of it as a nature reserve.

So you're saying the government didn't do enough regulation? How shocking.(You just know that he's complaining that the feds refused to call it a natural disaster so the state government could avoid any blame.)
