It's a lot of hard work to do a weekly TV show. It's certainly not fun.

All I ask is that you not be naive about how the government works when it decides to go after its prey.

Yeah, I think of what I do as a work of journalism. It's more like the op-ed page, though. These are my opinions. My point of view. The opinions are mine and I let you make up your own mind.

People of my age who went to college, go into college, you know what it cost back then? Nothing or next to nothing. At the most, you had to work at Dairy Queen during the summer and that would pay for your college education.

The American media wants to pump you full of fear.

I don't like to sit around whining about the corporate media, how they control everything, own everything. We already know that.

The upper 1 percent, the people down on Wall Street, the corporate executives, they're the people that control this economy.

Our laws demand that a corporation have a fiduciary responsibility with shareholders to maximize profits. They are legally required to make as much money as possible, any way possible within 'the law.'

I don't want to do anything that violates my own personal code of ethics and morals.

I'll tell you who doesn't have any personal responsibility. Companies like General Electric and others who pay absolutely no income tax.

My employees, there's no deductible in your health care. No deductible, absolutely not. You get paid sick days, as many as you need, personal days.
