Brilliant for sure... But can anyone provide a more logical system than capitalism. Capitalism provides an outlet for greed, an unfortunate trait instilled in all (most) of us!

Wow, now that was non-sequitur... But anyways, I'd like if technocracy (technocracy org) was given a shot. As for greed, while some of it is probably really what can be called "human nature" (i.e. the urge to have continuous material non-scarcity), a lot of it just as probably is nurture, the result of having grown up in a system driven by and thus instilling greed. As for outlets, it's just as with violence: If you need it, find a hobby that fits you as a pressure valve.

This guy is genius. Each of his drawings are so very poignant and utterly clever.

this conceptually is exactly like the art from opinion pages in the ny times, book review and top graphic illustrators.

great exhibit. at first, i didnt think much of it but the fearless honesty of what he and probably a lot of ppl think, expressed in simple almost childlike cartoons, made it humorous, witty and true.

WONDERFUL! We are all allowed of the YouTube and media revolution, but, STOP and think about it just a second... "a second"... IT'S DAMN WONDERFUL!!!! Thank you once again. Keep thinking, keep making, keep changing! -An American artist (because "America" is the continent, not only the USA), CHEERS!

Hi! A comment from Argentina: GREAT VIDEO! Thank you a lot for upload this kind of stuff! I mean, who would imagine 10 years ago, for example, that I could see, or anyone of us in the other side of the contient, this kind of art work, watching it comming real, inside MoMA.
