And I'm back to agreeing with everything Robert says.
All that money you (and all of us) made buying and selling homes
starting in the 90s was actually borrowed money.
After the financial crisis, Beck was at his best. People watched
because he pulled back the curtain on the inside dealings of DC and
Wall Street that led to the US taxpayer getting stuck with the bill
for the crisis. Advertisers started to dislike him because he called
out big corporate names. He

Gotta love this bit:
If the GAO issued a report that added together data for nine hot dog
stands and General Electric Co., and found that 90 percent of
companies didn't pay any tax, it would be a harmless and silly thing
to do.
Beats the old way wasting time as a community organizer.
