People who talk about the great benefits of "free markets" and the great spread of American capitalism "making the world a better place" are often first to scream about outsourcing and $4+ gas. They don't realize that free markets mean we have to compete with a math/science literate population of billions in China and India who will work for a fraction of what we do. They don't realize that free market prices for gas might mean they can't drive their SUVs.

"LOL Public Enemy doesn't own a lick of this song or many, many many of their own work." LOL, I'd like you tell to say that to their face. You need to do some research before spouting off uninformed crap like that. "Capitalists are capital motivated" Duh. Tell me something I don't know. The people you are laughing about supposedly owning their music would be "capitalists". Doesn't sound like a very desireable system, where people don't even own their own works of art.

LOL Public Enemy doesn't own a lick of this song or many, many many of their own work. And they own NOTHING of their relevant work. LOL. Besides, your compartmentalizing your definition of "Capitalism". Capitalists are capital motivated, which is why you have Flavor Flav on "Flavor of Love". To gain capital ! LMAO!

"Yeah they're so anti-capitalist lol. Hold on, I'm watching "Flavor of Love" LMAO." That's Flavor Flav. Chuck D is still just as anti-capitalist as ever. "Anti-capitalist" is a way of saying I'm not willing to be another man's (or woman's) sucker and work for a living to make profit for someone else. Anti-capitalists get to own their own music and keep all the revenue made.

I bet Chuck must have his head in his hands with despair when he saw Flavor's 'Flavor of Love' on TV. Its the kind of garbage PE stood against.

Chuck D was a prophet and was WAYYY ahead of his time

Yeah they're so anti-capitalist lol. Hold on, I'm watching "Flavor of Love" LMAO. "Anti-capitalist" is just another way of saying "I can't compete in the real world" LMAO

Who are these tools claiming that Public Enemy is anti-white? How the hell are they anti-white for being anti-imperialist, anti-racist and anti-capitalist? Does rapacious capitalism, racism and imperialism = whiteness? Funny how white racists always equate horrible things with being white, lol. If P.E. was anti-white then why did they tour with Anthrax and why are they buddies with New Kids on the Block? Jordan Knight and Donnie Wahlberg from NKOTB have even worn P.E. shirts in music videos.
