I was fine with the video until he launched into corporate America being behind everything. He speaks of these one-percenters as if they were the devil himself. But who are they really?
They're accountants.

Focus. Focus on the topic at hand. You're allowing yourself to get derailed by a digression. You may disagree with it but it doesn't detract from the main point.
This is very typical methodology for those who aren't familiar with how people make their money in politics. We just don't hear about it most of the time. The legalities behind the government's/politician's actions are usually sound and most people are willing to be strongarmed by very powerful people. The ethics, however, are pure grade cow manure.
Cliven Bundy's are few and far between.

Amazing that the narrator didn't bother to mention the most salient facts of the case:
= The land in question is not Mr. Bundy's
- Mr. Bundy was grazing illegally for many years and the BLM was following a court directive to remove his cattle. Does the author believe that Harry Reid owns the courts, too?
- Harry Reid is constitutionally authorized to have a say in the disposition of that land. So if he adjudges that Mr. Bundy's cattle are an impediment to a solar plant and thus uses some influence to have the BLM seek redress in court against Bundy that's perfectly within his authority. If Mr. Reid is too influential in the disposition of Federal land in Nevada that's up to Nevada voters to decide.

You're absolutely right. And now, thanks to Cliven Bundy, they have more information. If not for him fighting the BLM, Nevada voters would have no knowledge of this "influence," or, cronyism.
If you have no problem with the conflicts of interest here, well, you must be heavy into politics.

The meat of the video starts at about 4:30 and runs for about 2 minutes.

I thought Reid had nothing to do with this.

LOL! And than you!
Red is such a smart "sounding" poster but always ends up being the dumbest poster in a thread. And don't worry, as soon as he's outed by someone line you, he will disappear and not respond. He's a wanna be political guy who tries to follow their agenda, but looks stupid to everyone here. It's not his fault though, he just has yet to realize it's what liberals do, say whatever fits the agenda that moment.

Good video. Especially the evidence linking Harry Reid to this situation and his motives.
