1. So now you can all dream of being as wealthy and glamorous as me.

    So is this a sarcastic comment on capitalism ?
    Didn't Bono say :
    Capitalism will find a solution for everything ?



  2. "People of the former Soviet Union... I have given you Capitalism..."

    I always thought it was a wildly sarcastic comment about Capitalism and the radical change that people in the Soviet republics suffered in a few months time with the fall of The Wall, etc. I love that speech by the way, I can recite it all over from start to end
  3. I thought I could too...but I have already made a mistake

    I wish Bono had kept his opinions about capitalism and criticise it.

    But no,today it is his friend.
  4. I thought his Mirrorball Man and Mr McPhisto speeches were sensational at times and, in most cases, were nothing more than a piss take.

    I loved all the "I believe in Pepsi Cola, I believe in M&M's" type nonsense during Desire and some of McPhisto stuff was brilliant too. Check out the Zooropa Rotterdam shows for him trying to book a flight out of Schipol airport - total comedy gold!!

    Well everyone of us is. Everytime you pay for something you support capitalism.

  6. Not the poor people,I mean,there are people who work 15 hours a day and still can't buy enough food.
