1. I can't stomach him at ALL, not even 30 seconds
Though you are right about alot...it isn't just Beck, it is twisted that many people, not even the rich per se, believe that poverty happens to the lazy and bad folks...

From PTA moms to the business execs the disdain is the same.

I think we as a society are having to re-assess what the meaning of value is, and what matters... some will cling to their guns & bibles - some will come together to create community. I'd like to be one of the folk on the commune, but there will be the types out there who can get downright scary. They think the poor are really like a socialist uprising waiting to happen. These type also are the ones who heard food & ammo, and unfortunately beck & his ilk are the ones who play to that audience
