There's no shortage of resources; there's a lack of fair distribution. As long as power remains in the hands of a greedy few, little will change for the majority. It's time to question systems and redesign them for the people, not for profit.

His persona was the source of his "right-wing views" during this period, however it was a satirical character and not a reflection of his own political beliefs. Colbert himself has clarified that his conservative persona stemmed from his liberal worldview.
