Meet Peter Schiff. He is a Wall Street Investment Banker. For those of you who have 401k’s, there is probably, and this is nothing more than a guess, about a 40% chance that Peter Schiff is managing a sizable portion of your retirement assets. He manages a mutual fund which specializes in international investing, it is called the Europacific Fund, and he has a marketing agreement with American Funds. His track record for success is undeniable. In short, he is no fool.
I give Schiff a lot of credit. He is brave, and has the patience of Job. How quickly revolutions eat their own, at 7:20 we get an idiot who screams about Steven Jobs being evil, and I would bet you anything he owns at least 2 pieces of technology invented by Jobs. Let’s not forget that Jobs has usually been a darling of the left as well. At 8:09 the same fellow asks this fundamental question which I believe really defines the difference in philosophy between the left and the right. He asked, “do you agree that the government has the right to govern the lives of the American People?” To that I must answer, besides a resounding no, simply stunning. It is unbelievable to me that anyone could have grown up in America and not realize that our nation was founded in direct opposition to the concept of the government having the right to govern our lives. I believe the time has come for we Americans to go our separate ways. It might be time to seek an amicable divorce between the people who wish to remain free, and those who wish to impose Socialism. My next posting will be a proposed division of the marital assets.
