Wow. This is just bizarre but a good example of the libertarian talking points against Obama. It's a rap by a black guy in an expensive suit driving a fancy car who is bragging about being successful without being a 'victim'. The implication is that anyone on any kind of government assistance is a victim.

Of course he never explains just how he became successful. That would certainly help his message.

1. He made it by shucking and jiving for the corporate master.
And I am a poor judge of Rap but this seems lame to me.

3. But the question remains
What kind of a job does he have? How did he go from living in South Central to driving a fancy car and wearing expensive suits?

4. Well ... we are in agreement about that much: Work = Real Value and everything else
is just privately owned digits shuffled, by means of privately owned processes, between privately owned computers.

5. Definition of Work = Real Value added to whatever the enterprise is, not just BS like this video and
MOST of what's in the media these days.
