But, it is kind of funny to put “God” on money. This is the same “God” who sent his son down to beat up the moneylenders? If Jesus got angry and kicked the moneychangers out of the temple, imagine how ape-sh** he would have gone at Bain Capital. – Bill Maher

Now that we’ve passed the 11-year anniversary, we must all learn the final lesson of 9/11 and stop obsessing about 9/11. In 1986, most people had let Vietnam go. In 1952, people weren’t constantly referencing Pearl Harbor. And in the years since the Civil War, nobody…[slide of protesters carrying Confederate flags]…oh, never mind. – Bill Maher

[Last] week was the anniversary of 9/11 and the beginning of the war on terror. Which we totally won. But, government will never admit that, because the greedy money-machine known as the military-industrial complex sniffed out a source of cash like a pig on a truffle. And they will never let it go. Homeland Security is a bloated, federal monstrosity that eats our wealth and lives beyond our reproach, and we pay them $75 billion to do it. And we will from now until forever.
Because “free” is only the first part of “freedom.” The other part is “dumb.” – Bill Maher

Worshipping money is how we let things like our wars and our prisons and our healthcare turn into for-profit business endeavors. Is the war on drugs ever going to end? Sh**, no. Because it’s making billions for the private prison, alcohol and prescription drug industries. – Bill Maher
