Yep, the video is very good at showing just how messed up America has become. The main problem is US. The People.
THE PEOPLE need to stand up & start Objecting to what' s going on in a LOUD WAY! The start should be in November, SHOUT OUT with Votes!
WE MUST CHANGE The Playing Field! ASAP.

Well, you can flap your gums or you can do something about it. Georgia has done something, and it's up to the other states to follow suit:

Georgia SR736
Passed by the Georgia State Senate, Feb 4, 2014
Passed by the Georgia State House, Mar 6, 2014

A RESOLUTION
Applying for a convention of the states under Article V of the United States Constitution; and for other purposes.
WHEREAS, the founders of the Constitution of the United States empowered state legislators to be guardians of liberty against future abuses of power by the federal government;
and
WHEREAS, the federal government has created a crushing national debt through improper and imprudent spending;
and
WHEREAS, the federal government has invaded the legitimate roles of the states through the manipulative process of federal mandates, most of which are unfunded to a great extent;
and
WHEREAS, the federal government has ceased to live under a proper interpretation of the Constitution of the United States;
and
WHEREAS, it is the solemn duty of the states to protect the liberty of our people, particularly for the generations to come, by proposing amendments to the Constitution of the United States through a convention of the states under Article V of the United States Constitution to place clear restraints on these and related abuses of power.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA that the General Assembly of the State of Georgia hereby applies to Congress, under the provisions of Article V of the Constitution of the United States, for the calling of a convention of the states limited to proposing amendments to the United States Constitution that impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and limit the terms of office for its officials and for members of Congress.
