“But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education SUCKS, and it’s the same reason it will never … ever … EVER be fixed. It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got. … … … BECAUSE … THE OWNERS, OF THIS COUNTRY, DON’T WANT THAT! … … I’m talking about the real owners now … … … … … the BIG owners! … … … The Wealthy … … … … … the REAL owners! … The big wealthy business interests that control things … and make all the important decisions. … … … … Forget the politicians. They are irelevant. … … The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice . . . … you dont. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They OWN YOU. They own everything. They own all the important land. … They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. … They got you by the balls. … … They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying … . . . lobbying, … to get what they want . . . … Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but Ill tell you what they don’t want . . . they don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. … … They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that . . . that doesn’t help them. Thats against their interests. Thats right. … … They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting FUCKED by a system that threw them overboard 30 FUCKING years ago. … … They don’t want that! You know what they want? They want obedient workers . . . Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. … And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your … Social Security money. … … … They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? … … … They’ll get it . . . they’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this FUCKING place! Its a big club, and you ain’t in it! … … … … You, and I, are not in The big club. By the way, its the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care! Good honest hard-working people . . . white collar, blue collar it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means . . . continue to elect these rich COOK SUCKERS who don’t give a FUCK about you. They don’t give a FUCK about you . . . … they don’t give a FUCK about you. …. …. They don’t care about you at all . . . at all . . . at all, and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Thats what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick thats being jammed up their assholes everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth. Its called the American Dream, … cause you have to be asleep to believe it . . .”

Because he didn't post the clip, he posted the text from the clip, if you want to see the clip, visit Mr. Google.

Carlin was one of our greatest comedians, but I'd suggest that anyone who literally agrees with his dour commentary above may be well served to do what he did and that's end your own life early.

I mean, hey....Why bother trying to enjoy your remaining years if you honestly believe that other people in your world are constantly fucking you in the ass and there's no escape from being perpetually raped?

Agreed..Carlin talked about the gov't supposedly taking all of our money, while he died a rich man. I loved his standup routine, and he was right on with many of the things he said in his rants. But he was also very over the top to get his points across. That's what comedians do. And just keep in mind that Carlin made himself a nice career by working the counterculture theme. He knew what buttons to press to make everybody say "yeah, he's right."

Carlin is the most overrated legendary comedian to me. His constant dissing of christianity (I'm not remotely religious) and trying to act like it was so badass to do so, even though it really hadn't been for a long time was always funny to me. He acted like he was so unique to do that....

He did battle heart problems for a very long time, his self medicating probably helped a Little tho. Who doesnt like a drink and a vicodin once and awhile tho?

Even worse are people who are getting fucked in the ass and cant even comprehend all the ways they have been violated.

For those of us who have spent significant time working with people who have a long history of abusing disabling drugs (as opposed to moderate and/or more responsible use of one or more hard drugs), we know that there is absolutely a suicidal component in the otherwise premature death of someone who might have lived years longer were they to not have burned out their internals.
