MPH: ...and if a country wants to be socialist, then more power to them, but that's not what America is. America is not supposed to be about fucking the poor and all about the rich, but it's about a place that you can go and you can make some amazing things happen, or you can make some terrible shit go down. And I find a massive beauty in that, and I know that people that work very hard and who have gotten to the top have forgotten what it's like to be at the bottom, so they've gotten very, very selfish. So there's going to be a downside to everything, but I like the American Dream, and I think Hunter S. Thompson chronicled that a whole lot, and did it very, very well, and I think it's very, very true in saying that the hippy movement and free love and all this kind of stuff, and going on with Nixon in the 70s, Nixon's whole thing about instead of killing free speech, he just made it more expensive to send newspapers and magazines through the post, which brought tons of subscriptions down, which was kind of controlling the first amendment, the freedom of speech anyway, just in a different fucking way.http://stereogum.com/7208/of_montreal_art_brut_do_tmobile/franchises/commercial-appeal/
The thing is, I like capitalism. I think it’s an interesting challenge. It’s a system that rewards the imaginative and ambitious adults and punishes the lazy adults. Our generation is insanely lazy.

He makes a dig at Bill O'Reilly at the end, but is he really so different?

"And look at our new president: sure he's a man, but see who he's married to. Michelle was a senior lawyer when they met, he had to beg her for a date. Everything he does is serving and honouring the feminine. People say it's the end of testosterone politics, of all that bullying and swaggering by Bush and Cheney, but why can't they celebrate the emergence of oestrogen? All Obama's family is female - remember how he loved his grandmother, he has two daughters ..."I love Antony's music, but that quote is just... crazy - all his family are female, that must mean he will serve and honour the feminine.
