      $22 trillion 3 years later.
      In 1979 I watched a movie called Americathon with John Ritter.
      I looked up the trailer the other day and in the movie, the US owed $400 billion it had to raise to pay back the richest guy in the world (he said 'I gotta eat too is all I remember).
      Now $400 billion is 10 or 12 days into a month.
      I don't want a guberment that borrowers money, I want one that saves money.

    The economic situation of the modern world isn't comparable to that of the ancient world.

    2:16 did he just say that "Ultimate Fighting" which I'm assuming is MMA or more specifically the UFC, is "fighting without rules" ? Fucking CASUAL. He probably can't tell a RNC from a Bulldog! He probably can't tell the difference between Cowboy Oliviera and Cowboy Cerrone! It's actually ironic because since MMA has so many techniques and different ways that the fight can turn out, there is more individual rules for those scenarios than in any other combat sport! The 12-6 rule, no outstretched fingers, no leg strikes to the head of a grounded opponent, the rules that even dictate what constitutes a ground opponent, no putting your fingers in the gloves of another fighter, and the list goes on and on and on! Hahaha. It's always fun to hear people talk about MMA who don't actually watch it because they think it's the same thing as Mortal Kombat or something haha.
