My number one problem with Rage's politics is summed in this quote from Tom Morello:
"America touts itself as the land of the free, but the number one freedom that you and I have is the freedom to enter into a subservient role in the workplace. Once you exercise this freedom you've lost all control over what you do, what is produced, and how it is produced. And in the end, the product doesn't belong to you. The only way you can avoid bosses and jobs is if you don't care about making a living. Which leads to the second freedom: the freedom to starve."
Oh poor Tom, so you feel oppressed because you've actually got to get a job and work for a living like every other person who's ever f*cking lived? Id hate to hear how you'd feel if you were a child living in a Township in South Africa who's homeless now because both of your parents were murdered by a militia.
Its just a bunch of neo-hippies moaning about nothing.
