That video of Carlin should just be played at the top of the list of demands. It's concise, it's clear, it hits all the right points.

I love Carlin, but he was a cynic. According to this rant, MLK should have just thrown in the towel in 1963 because comprehensive civil rights legislation would never be possible. And if things will never ever get better, then why are we here now?

The truth is that change can happen when people unite. This is where the true power resides, not with the owners -- although they would like us to believe so.

Thanks for the link. This should be a mandatory education tape shown every day in all public schools.
