Is this thread suposto be a joke?
The only solution is to vote for Obama.
"Our free market was never meant to be a free license to take whatever you can get, however you can get it," Obama said, speaking in downtown Manhattan. "Unfortunately, instead of establishing a 21st century regulatory framework, we simply dismantled the old one - aided by a legal but corrupt bargain in which campaign money all too often shaped policy and watered down oversight. In doing so, we encouraged a winner take all, anything goes environment that helped foster devastating dislocations in our economy."
"The core of our economic success is the fundamental truth that each American does better when all Americans do better; that the well being of American business, its capital markets, and the American people are aligned," Obama said. "I think all of us here today would acknowledge that we've lost that sense of shared prosperity."
"This loss has not happened by accident," he said, continuing. "It's because of decisions made in boardrooms, on trading floors and in Washington. Under Republican and Democratic Administrations, we failed to guard against practices that all too often rewarded financial manipulation instead of productivity and sound business practices. We let the special interests put their thumbs on the economic scales. The result has been a distorted market that creates bubbles instead of steady, sustainable growth; a market that favors Wall Street over Main Street, but ends up hurting both."

I thought it was bull too until I did a search for it. Google is talking about it, so it must have a basis in reality.

I'd expect nothing less from the media & entertainment elites who want to control information to the masses. Interesting Google article...
Yea, its a great way to get you to click on the video which seemed to be the only point of her being there.Quote from cknucks:
All I noticed was the cleave! I should prolly go back and actually listen to what she was saying.
As to the premise, sorry but I just don't see it. The value of the internet is the sum of it - if you can only access search engines but you do not have access to actually go to the sites that you find in your search results then who would even bother doing searches?
