+CrashCourse, don't you think it's biased to say that -there's nothing that Americans hate more than taxes-? I believe that most Americans don't appreciate taxes and how much they do for us (like pay for all the agencies you explained in this episode and the last, and some people just say they hate taxes without considering their benefits. Shouldn't we be trying to alleviate this misconception that taxes are all bad, with no good? After all, some Americans do appreciate taxes. I know it's hard to maintain objectivity, and I'm biased, too. But I was surprised that you opened with that line as a joke when it's a really severe controversy and you're teaching impressionable teenagers.

Bureaucracies not only enforce laws they make them, under the guise of regulation with the full force of law. A. K. A. legislation! They are not elected and they have immunity. The constitution expressly states in several places in article 1 that ALL laws must go through congress. This is legislation without representation! I guess its the norm these days when government routinely ignores the constitution or -re-interprets- it.

Note that when Senator Joseph McCarthy was on the Commie hunt, the Left smashed him like a bug and turned his name into a derogative term, BUT, when the Left goes on a Commie hunt, well, it's a good thing. Yet, the Left clings to Communism as if it were their religion.
WEIRD!

Whoa whoa. Public transportation is a necessary for a functioning nation! And healthy foods are the equivalent to bread and butter for our bodies! Am I really the only American that does not take those things (among fair order and democratic freedoms) for granted?

Beaurocracies have grown since the new deal but before the Wall Street crash America was quite fine economically and didn't really get involved internationally in a controversies before WW1. Why not revert back to those times in terms of government control

So basically, Congressmen will talk up eliminating bureaucracies, but not actually do it because then nobody would complain about it anymore then? Least in theory?
Huh. Neat and manipulative. The treatment is more profitable than the cure.

Hey, for future reference, I know you want your videos to be brief but it would be helpful if after you put text on the screen to leave the full text up for just one second so it can be paused and recorded by viewers

Craig punching the eagle is his way of exercising his right to symbolic speech as protected in the Supreme Court case Tinker vs. Des Moines (I think)

Technically, punching the eagle after it's already set up on the desk would be after-the-fact controlling of its role in the episode, right?
