Carlin figured out long ago that if he mocked society by becoming more radical, the crowd would pay for the experience. Those poor saps who attended his show were watching a con man playing with their emotions, making large sums of money in the process. |

What's wrong with Carlin using the system that was working overtime to screw him and everyone else? And are there parts of that video with which you disagree? Carlin was a social commentator as much as comedian, and he was good at both. I wouldn't call him a radical. |

What's wrong with that? |
