4. He Is Right

I have for years thought this was the way Democrats needed to talk to people about increasing wages and government programs. Democrats need to tell people if they want to reduce the number of people on government programs than they need to support increasing wages. The only real way you are going to get people off welfare and food stamps is to pay them enough money to provide for themselves and their families.

6. For years I felt that Bill maher...

had a problem with timing of his jokes.

Now I don't care, as what he says is more important than his cadence.

8. Maher Puts It Well And Succinctly

Like when he said you can't really be against abortion if you oppose contraception - because guess what lack of contraception drives up.

With this he gets to the heart of it, we are paying more solely to facilitate corporate greed.

If I owned a company and was given a choice of having 500 million while paying my workers peanuts or 375 million by treating them ala the golden rule I wouldn't even have to think. What he Hell can't I do with 375 million? How callous are some of these CEOs?
