Actually, he was pretty much all over the map; he was a quintessential 'little guy' who had tried to be his own boss; his anger at the tax code for what he saw as screwing up his ability to live outside the corporate prison drove a lot of his anger. He was angry at the bailouts, hated big corporations as well as the Catholic Church and the IRS. Don't think he can be labeled 'left' or 'right'; just an angry man who saw himself as a victim of big goverment and big corporations. Can argue with some of his choices, like his dabbling in that tax avoidance movement in the mid 80's, but can't argue with the basic premise that the little guy has no hope in the world today. We are all just cogs in the corporate greed machine, less than dirt in the eyes of the big money boys.
Hey, we can always vote out the government pukes we get fed up with; how do you get rid of Blackwater, or Halliburton, or Wells Fargo, or United Healthcare? Corporations don't even pay attention to their shareholders, except for the big instituions, who give a rat's patootie about anything other than quarterly profits.
Thanks to the John Roberts Supreme Court, our chains are now complete: pay homage to your new corporate masters, all!
