@@hyperionofhyperness1883 That's the best part, JJ's such a big comics buff that he's probably well aware of the Jimmy Olsen comics' legacy of completely random insanity.

I believe that was in multiple story lines? And in some of them he is probably one of the greatest world leaders in history. Specifically from what I recall in Batman and Superman Public Enemies the intro of that is how the planet and the United States suffers a sudden economic collapse and Depression which leads to a collapse in social stability then crime epidemic. Then Luthor runs for office based on a plan for an American economic recovery and restoring order. Then he manages to not only recover but make a better economy than before in less than 6 months? While in Red Son he is the US president and basically leads the non Soviet part of the world against Soviet Superman. On the flipside you have the short lived version from the Justice Lords version where the Justice League attacks the white house and superman heat visions luthor in the oval office.
That was the early 2000s/Public Enemies storyline, and unless I'm misremembering, Luthor actually did a decent job running the USA. It was only when he tried to stop a Kryptonite Meteor solo out of pride and ruin Superman's reputation at the same time that everything went to shit. That and he mixed Bane's venom with Kryponite for some kind of performance enchancing drug?

@@Evil0tto It's not a gun, it's a ranged combat device designed to to use the force of a combustion to propel a small object through luthor's face at high velocity speeds. Totally different.
One is a sinister group of malevolent/incompetent villains bringing devastation to the world, and the other is the Legion of Doom! (Obvious punchline is obvious!) 😂
I too agree with the Flash's assessment of what was said by Luthor on the topic of hospitals as it did sound as though he was suggesting free healthcare for all United States of America citizens in this one part of the video where he is saying this part in... my agreement also being in a muffled manner in this the comment section of this Solid jj video where this assessment was first provided by the Flash on what was said by Luthor. 0:54
Batman: But, if there's no crime in Gotham, who am I suppose to scare, assault, and tie up at 2 AM? Lex: I mean, you could just do something else, I guess. Batman: But, it's fun ;(
Still even if the legion of doom joined the same side there are still other threats out there Maybe they won't go around fighting every week or so like it's implied with their nemesis but still the world will need them
I really love these "supervillains take political power and unironically have better ideas than real life politicians" bits because of the disparity between the two. Between the sleazebags taking money for themselves and kicking the middle class while they're down and the moustache-twiddling, goofy, cartoon villains, I know who I'd pick for office, and they happen to be on TV every Saturday, and get beat up by the Justice League regularly
It helps that some evil rulers really aren't actually that bad. Dr. Doom is ironically a pretty good ruler, the Overlord in Monster Girl Encyclopedia wants peace between humans and monsters, Megamind defaulted to "Let them run themselves", Merlina the Dark Queen wants to save her kingdom, and some versions of the Decepticons start off with no more than a desire for freedom.
The stuff they're suggesting historically hasn't worked out well. Mainly because governments tend to be horribly inefficient and horribly bloated bureacratically and typically run most programs they take over into the ground while wasting a lot of resources (especially the US government). Stuff like "only tax the rich" sounds good until you find out rich people can just leave the country while taking their business elsewhere or the government decides it needs more money and starts taxing regular people again which is garunteed to happen after a short while (not arguing our current tax laws aren't all kinds of F-ed up, just using this one thing from the video as an example).
@@Umbra_Ursus"Doctor doom is ironically a pretty good ruler" The citizens of his country have basically no rights and he kills or imprisons basically anyone who opposes him in even the slightest way.
My favorite Luthor line is still: “We’re going to kill every fish. Each- each one.” Why? “Fuck ‘em!” 🤣 Also, to follow that up: Are we really doing this? “Yes!…I guess…” 🤣
That seems to be a pattern of his: when he doesn’t have a evil scheme he believes in, he defaults to “kill every (x)”. And pretty quickly gives up on it, talking about how he doesn’t even know how he’d do that.
Yeah it would be better if he sat up a government health program probably similar to what they have in Europe or something were everyone is expected to pay they'r part
@@elishafollet5347If you really want to get into that the only reason every other country has such cheap prescriptions is because the companies gouge the US.
@@jimhenderson8450 No, they gouge the US because the US is run by corporate lobbyists. You know literally everything costs a fraction of it's selling price to produce, right?
I'm not sure how I'd feel about being forced out of my home to live in a well-funded suburb. I'm not a fan of either of those 2 things, but if it meant _everyone_ had their own home?
Hospitals not getting paid would still have a huge downside since medical professionals would have to be paid in some way for that profession to be maintainable, so pretty soon a lot of doctors who went through all the work of medical school are going to be quitting to make money somewhere else and leaving lots of people sick from not getting enough medical attention
The Lexcorp sponsored Legion of Doom Internment Camps, tremble with fear as you and your families are relocated to a spacious, 2,700 square foot home with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 0.6 acres, fully furnished basement, garage, patio, swimming pool, water heater system...wait a minute, this is better than my house. Ok, I, Lex Luthor, will also be moving to the Camps, to...oversee the prisoners as the evil warden...we can have like BBQs and stuff, it'll be fun
Note how the second they got a reason to stop Lex, it was Batman who shouted for him to be stopped with 0 hesitation, he had been waiting for that opportunity.
If the Legion of Doom wanted to be super evil they'd just set up a home owner's association. Make the sight of suburbs strike fear into the hearts of people who are too busy to cut the grass every week.
A flashback to the time, when Lex Luthor didn`t discover cancer cure. - Ah, Superfops, now with this cure, all cancer shall be eliminated! - You fiend! My cousin works at the cancer ward! - Oh, and I guess that DailyPlanet Charity Cancer Run is going to be canceled now, Superman, muahaha! - You monster! - So, theoretically, how much this cure would cost, if Wayne Corp were to manufacture it? - It`s free! - Get him!
Reminds me of when Luthor became president in Red Son. I like how Luthor is this super genius who could solve any problem plaguing mankind if he wanted to, but he only ever does if it means getting one over on Superman.
Honestly if lex could fix all of our problems in the u.s it makes you wonder why he hasn't just quit trying to kill Superman and go into politics as a full time career, like he already became president like once or twice before from what I've heard and did pretty decently so why not start up his own party and take control of the u.s gov from within? It's not like it can be any worse than what we already have
Wait! Was Luthor willing to tax himself harshly for the good of the people? Wow. No wonder he has such a hero complex, this man deserves all the praise.
Welcome back to another episode of "Evil Villains attempting to make a place evil, but in the process accidentally making it like 50 times better for the masses"!

I swear I cant stop laughing every time I hear this version of Lex Luthor’s VA he does a job well done especially this part 0:46 Lex Luthor: They can still go, they’ll just never pay for it. Take that Hospitals!! Hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah!!
0:44 -Finally, I don't need to pay my hospital anything! -Ok, in that case I don't need to heal you either now that my hospital is not paying me -Wait what?
This is actually super accurate. Our politicians refuse to solve problems, why? Because then they’d be out of a job, but if we complain about a problem, never solve it, and point fingers at the other side, they’ll have a job for life. As long as we fight each other and not the govt, they’ll never be held accountable
This statement is factually incorrect. No politician believes that solving problems will make them lose a job, it is that simple. Politicians get votes by solving problems, and simply move on to bitching about new problems once they do it, so they get nothing by not solving the problems

@@ploopyfudgewink9207 it’s exactly why Elon musk is in Texas. Cali was taxing too high so he left. What makes you think the rich don’t go elsewhere?
@@benjaminwatt2436Thats mb I misunderstood what you meant. I thought you were talking about tax evading and leaving the country being viable for a billionaire (which is stupid) but you’re talking about state level and just moving before taxes are raised (yeah happens all the time, that’s why they like to hide out in heavy essential laborer states). Only way to fix it is to raise the rich tax everywhere.
0:35 I’m surprised Batman didn’t shoot Luthor in the face, for threatening to cut off the flow of money.
What? Batman doesn't use guns. Except on his car. Lotsa guns on that. And his plane. And boat. Y'know what? Never mind.
@@Evil0tto It's not a gun, it's a ranged combat device designed to to use the force of a combustion to propel a small object through luthor's face at high velocity speeds.

I too agree with the Flash's assessment of what was said by Luthor on the topic of hospitals as it did sound as though he was suggesting free healthcare for all United States of America citizens in this one part of the video where he is saying this part in... my agreement also being in a muffled manner in this the comment section of this Solid jj video where this assessment was first provided by the Flash on what was said by Luthor.

That ending implies that there is some incentive to keeping there jobs like they are paid for it or something like a avenger
Probably also because there are other villains that would cause trouble. Even more so if the justice league lost their job
Let's face it, the Justice League would be bored without beating villains.
Yep, which kinda ends up being the biggest joke
Batman: But, if there's no crime in Gotham, who am I suppose to scare, assault, and tie up at 2 AM?
Lex: I mean, you could just do something else, I guess.
Batman: But, it's fun ;(
Still even if the legion of doom joined the same side there are still other threats out there
Maybe they won't go around fighting every week or so like it's implied with their nemesis but still the world will need them
Batman personally didn’t like Luther’s plan because he’s a billionaire 💀
Yes, that is the joke. Also on the news, explaining the joke ruins it.
Aquaman didn't mind despite being richer than Batman, because he's not subject to US taxes.
Luthor is a billionaire as well.
@@SilenceInd he’s “evil” enough to sacrifice his wealth
@@Firemaster27 Or he just won't pay cause who'll force him? And taxing the rich makes sense cause they have all the money.
I really love these "supervillains take political power and unironically have better ideas than real life politicians" bits because of the disparity between the two. Between the sleazebags taking money for themselves and kicking the middle class while they're down and the moustache-twiddling, goofy, cartoon villains, I know who I'd pick for office, and they happen to be on TV every Saturday, and get beat up by the Justice League regularly
It helps that some evil rulers really aren't actually that bad. Dr. Doom is ironically a pretty good ruler, the Overlord in Monster Girl Encyclopedia wants peace between humans and monsters, Megamind defaulted to "Let them run themselves", Merlina the Dark Queen wants to save her kingdom, and some versions of the Decepticons start off with no more than a desire for freedom.
It hurts cause you right af
The stuff they're suggesting historically hasn't worked out well. Mainly because governments tend to be horribly inefficient and horribly bloated bureacratically and typically run most programs they take over into the ground while wasting a lot of resources (especially the US government). Stuff like "only tax the rich" sounds good until you find out rich people can just leave the country while taking their business elsewhere or the government decides it needs more money and starts taxing regular people again which is garunteed to happen after a short while (not arguing our current tax laws aren't all kinds of F-ed up, just using this one thing from the video as an example).
The Nazis already tried this and well...
@@Umbra_Ursus"Doctor doom is ironically a pretty good ruler"
The citizens of his country have basically no rights and he kills or imprisons basically anyone who opposes him in even the slightest way.
0:29 this isn't really evil this Lex Luthor is becoming a good president
I love how Batman was agreeing that Luthor wants to make the rich pay up further taxes until he realized he's one of them
The Legion of Doom is not the Senate we deserve, but the one we need. Or something along those lines.
My favorite Luthor line is still:
“We’re going to kill every fish. Each- each one.”
Why?
“Fuck ‘em!” 🤣
Also, to follow that up:
Are we really doing this?
“Yes!…I guess…” 🤣
That seems to be a pattern of his: when he doesn’t have a evil scheme he believes in, he defaults to “kill every (x)”. And pretty quickly gives up on it, talking about how he doesn’t even know how he’d do that.
@@islamroks11 🤣

@@elishafollet5347If you really want to get into that the only reason every other country has such cheap prescriptions is because the companies gouge the US.
@@jimhenderson8450 so get rid of price gouging and both public and private healthcare will be cheaper?

I love how Batman is the only one who objects to taxes on the rich lmao
Hospitals not getting paid would still have a huge downside since medical professionals would have to be paid in some way for that profession to be maintainable, so pretty soon a lot of doctors who went through all the work of medical school are going to be quitting to make money somewhere else and leaving lots of people sick from not getting enough medical attention

Hiding his identity
Lex almost won until he mentioned how the heroes would lose their jobs. But couldn't the just use their powers for regular jobs?

It could have been the German one also.
i did the reverse image search, yes it is one of the camps the non-Lex Luthor US Government established in 1942
The Lexcorp sponsored Legion of Doom Internment Camps, tremble with fear as you and your families are relocated to a spacious, 2,700 square foot home with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 0.6 acres, fully furnished basement, garage, patio, swimming pool, water heater system...wait a minute, this is better than my house. Ok, I, Lex Luthor, will also be moving to the Camps, to...oversee the prisoners as the evil warden...we can have like BBQs and stuff, it'll be fun
Note how the second they got a reason to stop Lex, it was Batman who shouted for him to be stopped with 0 hesitation, he had been waiting for that opportunity.
“Tax the rich!”
- Luther, who is THE 1%
Now we know that the Legion of Doom is less evil than the U.S. Government
1:26 Lance Archer
Apparently both Lex and Batman are fine with only the rich getting taxed even if it includes them. Such good lads.
If the Legion of Doom wanted to be super evil they'd just set up a home owner's association.
Make the sight of suburbs strike fear into the hearts of people who are too busy to cut the grass every week.
Really puts into perspective that super heroes really just protect the status quo.
A flashback to the time, when Lex Luthor didn`t discover cancer cure.
- Ah, Superfops, now with this cure, all cancer shall be eliminated!
- You fiend! My cousin works at the cancer ward!
- Oh, and I guess that DailyPlanet Charity Cancer Run is going to be canceled now, Superman, muahaha!
- You monster!
- So, theoretically, how much this cure would cost, if Wayne Corp were to manufacture it?
- It`s free!
- Get him!
Batman the guy with billions of dollars and have a business being scared of losing his superhero job is the funniest shit I’ve ever seen
Reminds me of when Luthor became president in Red Son. I like how Luthor is this super genius who could solve any problem plaguing mankind if he wanted to, but he only ever does if it means getting one over on Superman.
Honestly if lex could fix all of our problems in the u.s it makes you wonder why he hasn't just quit trying to kill Superman and go into politics as a full time career, like he already became president like once or twice before from what I've heard and did pretty decently so why not start up his own party and take control of the u.s gov from within? It's not like it can be any worse than what we already have
“Super friends go!!” My. Favorite part of the hole skit 😂😂
Lex Luthor: Y'know I really thought we'd be striking some kinda fear here.
Scarecrow: I'm standing right here.
"Specifically for the rich"
Said billionaire Lex Luthor and cheered billionaire Bruce Wayne
Ryan George: "Doc Ock is gonna generate power for all of mankind. But, like, in an Evil way."
Wait! Was Luthor willing to tax himself harshly for the good of the people? Wow. No wonder he has such a hero complex, this man deserves all the praise.
"Just please don't make this political."

That “fuck” from Batman is perfectly delivered
This is actually super accurate. Our politicians refuse to solve problems, why? Because then they’d be out of a job, but if we complain about a problem, never solve it, and point fingers at the other side, they’ll have a job for life. As long as we fight each other and not the govt, they’ll never be held accountable
This statement is factually incorrect. No politician believes that solving problems will make them lose a job, it is that simple. Politicians get votes by solving problems, and simply move on to bitching about new problems once they do it, so they get nothing by not solving the problems
Yes, that is right. The power of the government of the USA comes from unrest and internal conflict.
Lex Luthor must have been taking points from papa Palpatine
The Legion are lucky the Senate didn't hit them with sick 720 air spin with ignited lightsaber.
Superfriends really showed the power of South Park “THEY TOOK OUR JERBS!” energy.
