Fucking retards, the lot of them.
Haha mindless zombies…my god people wake up!
Mam to be honest US foreign policy is really the one which sucked the economy high and dry with all these false wars and when it comes to domestic its pretty bad right now because congress and the bankers are all corrupt , so Ron Paul can put a stop to this, and this this the only chance the US has got, the Dems and Rep are all the same shit but diff smell lol.
As for the occupy Aust . its not bad but I wish the movement was bigger then the US.
I like Ron Paul’s foreign policy, hate is domestic. His domestic sucks!!! And yeah, after the occupy movement, people are starting to wake up. If anything, it has gotten people to start talking more politics and how the rich and government have been fucking us over. Talking about it more causes people to learn more. Slowly but surely, stuff is happening. How’s occupy going in australia?
ok thats good and i can understand the frustration you under and the only advise i can give is Vote Ron Paul to make changes to your country and would be a good start.
I’m from Australia and we ant in the same situation as the US but it isn’t the best either some of the policies we have and I can assure you we have some brainwashed citizens as well but they are starting to wake up….And the whole idea is beating the Gov is fighting them to restore fairness.
I never said the US is perfect. The US sucks, I know that. I’ve been sleeping in a tent for the past 2 months. I’m doing my part raising awareness about many of the issues we have. What the fuck have you done to raise awareness in your own country.
People everywhere are fucking stupid and unaware, and no doubt in your country as well. Yet you think it’s ONLY Americans. It’s not. I don’t know what country you’re from, but you’re proof that they’re stupid too.
Americans are the main problem of the world, your country is hijacked by the Zionist Jews and all your money is going to Israel so they can commit crimes and that’s why the US is getting poor and hungry each year , and your rights are violated by the fascist pigs who run your country.
If your going to defend your country to me and say how good and perfect they are then you been drinking too much fluoride.
You missed my point completely. You’re basically saying that ONLY the Americans are brainwashed, and everyone else is aware, smart, and knows exactly what is going on in the world. Goddamn you are dumb. Why not focus on people from your own country, and stop acting as if Americans are the only problem with the world you stupid fucktard.
who gives a shit if they weren’t all from the US? your telling me not many who are not awake you dumb bitch? the problem is brainwashing begins at a very early age.. history lessons in school.. nothing but biased views, twisted truth, lies.. to get their side of the story hardwired into your brain..
So chill out and wake up your follow mates and citizens.
Half of the people weren’t even American. “Visiting from Ireland” “Visiting from Italy” “Visiting from U.K.” Seriously, fuck you, ignorant asshole.
It’s amazing how people can be so completely oblivious to what’s going on around the world and in their own country(if you can call it a country and not a police state). I’m truly disillusioned with America.
Super Committee not commuter (auto correct)
There is another video of this chick asking people in dc about the “super congress” of course no one had heard of it, it was called the super commuter…they are trying to prove a point, any interviews that don’t make that point hit the cutting room floor…Russians pointing out ignorance of the common american is quite ironic.
I haven’t been able to find any “man in the street” interviews from Russia…I’m sure they are all globally aware.geniuses…funny that according to RT thousands of them have been brainwashed by Hillary Clinton into protesting mostly clean ellections there
All they can think about is SHOPPING, they need to get their heads out of the sand and wake up. What is going on in the world effects us all and they don’t have any idea what’s going on in their own country either. Stay a sleep and stay ignorant, one day they are going to say where did our freedom go.
Thank you! Finally someone can open their eyes and ears and really SEE and HEAR! Most Americans are like anyone else on this planet…all they want is to live their lives in peace. NO ONE but the controllers want to be in wars. I have done extensive research and please, everyone else, do yours too – each country has different internet filters I’ve noticed, making each one look as though they possess more info than the next country. Psy ops to keep us all separated and indifferent?
Man this is crazy looking at this video again I see exactly what you mean that is definitely a green screen.
Wow, she made the question sound intelligent and difficult on purpose so she could make ppl look dumb instead of breaking the question down or explaining what happen then ask what their response, and she asked out of town ppl also, I bet half of you wouldn’t know how to answer those questions either if you were put on the spot like that. I knew the egyptian elections and pakistan question though lol
ALERT: GOVERNMENT is COUNTERFEITING MONEY for SLAVERY..!!!
bankers+lawyers+police+judge+politicians+criminals+etc = DIRTY CAPITALIST SCUM PIGS.
BANKERS & DRUGLORDS screwed life & society in human history.

“GOD HANG the LANDGRABBER PIG CAPITALIST ROYAL LAZY FAMILY”
SAVE the ANIMALS & NATURE. END THE DEBT.
Come on…be serious. Look closely at each person… these people were interviewed somewhere else…not in the street. The outline around their bodies clearly show that the initial “interviews” are in front of the background screen. You people who are paid trolls…not saying that is you, MrStaxxy…need to realize that you are merely helping them achieve their goals. However, once that is done you will no longer be of use. RT is not a trusted site. They lie like the rest of MSM.
See this is a complete distraction from the true abomination going on with our world leaders
Knowledge is our only Power and the Best Defense toward a Worldwide conspiracy to destroy the World Economy … The Elites are forcing the world back to Feudalism where the Merchants put up Puppet Royals (for the USA is the President and the Senate and Congress) They learned that they only way to destroy America is from within and to create Propaganda
I understand the Yanks not knowing anything about what the fuck is going on – but the Italian guy and the clearly quite well-spoken and by extrapolation probably educated British woman surprised me.
Well, that’s a big ass 360 degrees screen then.
