I for one disable flash as a default and don't want to click on a flash object unless I know what the content is about. Please just supply some more info than just the title.

I though it was Youtube not flash.

As for textual information, it's Secular Talk (I subscribe on Youtube) and it covers what might happen if we paid criminals to fix their lives. In this case there isn't anything that could really be added to the title.

If you want it should be fairly easy to find on Youtube, that way you wouldn't need the link.

My tech skills aren't that great either, if I'm unable to help I suggest going straight to the source. Sorry about that, I consider myself computer functional, not computer literate.

I am deaf, so watching a video won't help me find out what the results were of paying people to get their act together, because like most deaf people, I can't understand what the speaker is saying. There are a lot of deaf people on DU--enough that we have a DU group for hearing loss. I bet I am not the only one who wishes you would briefly summarize what the talk says the outcome of the experiment was. Providing a brief summary takes no technical skill--just words.

I don't have a transcribe, again all I can do is refer you to the original source. They should be able to help.

As for a summary? We are progressives, if we invest in peoples lives we expect things to improve and they usually do.

Once again, my apologies for my thick headiness.

Bravo for Richmond, CA.

However, this cannot mitigate the crimes of the very rich organized criminals. Otherwise, this is a good solution.

we've already tried it with the upper crust criminal element and it doesn't work.
