Also I guess this would be to spread his wealth because there are so many poor people and he doesn't need it. To me this is another example of him being disillusioned with the 'unfair' establishment.

    Dave is ok paying more takes cause he is rich. I believe that makes him fiscally liberal. He says something along those lines from Vegas '10.

    Favorite Political Song by DMB for me has to be Don't Drink the Water.

    I agree with Chad, he is totally anti-gov't. He sings about monkeys and ants, maybe a hierarchy but not a huge gov't that controls everything one can or can not do.

    Thanks for your help - do you have any other instances aside from Vegas 10 where you get this impression?

    If you ever listen to the Vote for Change Tours...the one I was at in G'Ville, FL. He was vocal about John Kerry, but he was most vocal about just voting. DL the show and give it a listen.

    And then he talks specifically about George Bush.
    "They" is not 1 person. Clearly he was extremely opposed to GB and what he stood for. But this is the sentiment I talk about.
    I can almost guarantee you that he was talking about Bush's administration in that quote. Nothing suggests that Dave is remotely anti-government; to the contrary, he openly supports political candidates, parties and ideals, and his brand of leftist politics inherently requires a pretty dominant governing force.

    Which is why I said that he sees the need for it.

    I guess maybe instead of anti-government, I mean disillusionment with politicians and the establishment. Not that the country doesn't NEED the establishment, but the people IN the establishment he doesn't have great faith in.
    From what I can see.

    So he's anti-government, yet supports a political ideology that inherently requires huge government. Doesn't that suggest a bit more than "seeing the need for it"?

    Thanks for your insightful input.

    Have you got any examples from where your opinions come? That's really what I'm after.

    I did concede about 5 minutes ago that I probably mean he's "disillusioned" with it, because of the people involved, and not necessarily "anti". Semantics bro.

    No, he hasn't. He's vocally opposed leaders he disagrees with, but I don't know how anyone who literally asks to be taxed more could possibly be considered anti-establishment.
    On point one, I'm not so sure about that. Big government seems to be a hallmark of progressives, and not all liberals, even those that are far left consider themselves progressive. I think you can count Tim Reynolds in this group. There was some interview where someone asked him about his participation in a D&T Obama benefit, and he said he liked Obama and the excitement he generated, but stopped short of saying he'd support him in an election. It was more of a 'we'll see' kind of thing. Tim is pretty anti-system. He's real big on Dennis Kucinich.


    On the second, I agree completely.. and I don't think it's so much that Dave's views are conflicting in that regard, as much as they've changed over the years. I think he's become more concerned in getting a democratic candidate elected because he's realized the reality of politics. That's just supposition on my part though.

    It's not semantics -- there's a major difference between being disenfranchised with the political system, and being anti-government or anti-establishment. He may be against imperialism or, to a lesser degree, capitalism, but at the most basic level his political leanings inherently support big government.

    I certainly believe there to be a disparity between Dave's beliefs and the beliefs of those around him. Hell, there was talk back in 2004 that at least one band member is/was pretty conservative, but did the tour anyway because they weren't satisfied with Bush's presidency.

    But, and again I'm trying to toe the line here carefully, most liberal ideals require heavy government involvement. I'm not saying all do, but generally you can't have the kind of political movements that most liberals support without considerable government involvement.

    I agree for the most part, and don't think Dave has contradicted himself. Seems to me that he's always supported the idea of big government. You don't publicly support candidates like Kerry and Obama if you don't.

    Do you have any data to back up your arguments? Or are you just spouting your own thoughts?? If it's the former, I'd love to be enlightened on what Dave actually thinks. Thank you!!

    Dave's on-stage rants about one thing or another don't remotely qualify as "data." However, it doesn't take a ton of common sense to realize that Dave's general beliefs require a great deal of government involvement to be successfully implemented.

    Sorry if you got offended, I just didn't want to carry on a conversation where you were just going to force your opinion of Dave's beliefs without backing it up. That's kind of the reason I started this thread - to gain DaveSpeak soundbites/quotes for my research. Not to engage in debate without 'sources' or 'data' (i.e. links to where he said it). Thanks though.

    DMBZilla by saying that - i'm open to discussion with you, as long as you meet me halfway and provide evidence.

    We could both say the complete opposite for eternity; however without sources and evidence to back our arguments up, neither of us is proven to be right.

    Not trying to be adversarial, I respect your views, however they're useless in this context as it stands!! If you provide links etc., THEN your arguments take on authoritativeness, and are super-useful. Hope that makes sense!

    Same - Roi is insane, and Dave (guitar 10:30 ish onwards) is amazing!! And I love it how the crowd goes wild when he's doing the scatting too

    Paraphrasing here....

    I'd also say Dave is pretty cognizant of his location before he really gets into his political views. Thats not an absolute, but he's not likely to say the things he said in that scat if he's playing a show in the south, as he is in san fran or nyc. In 2003 in Boone he kept the talk about everyone wanting a peaceful world no matter what they believe.
