Change perspectives......

I know I have posted several video links to John Stossel in the recent past, and I intend this to be my last one. I submit this link for all to see and encourage a healthy debate. It outlines the benefits of capitalism in its' least regulated form as opposed to socialism.
Consider the celebrities who are constantly preaching the need for those of us with more to give to those with less. Certainly the vast majority of them live in unimaginable luxury compared to those of us in lesser classes.
Intrigued? Offended? Supportive? Annoyed? Please tell me what you think after watching this. I would be most happy if someone could give me new insight on my own perspective....

Stossel does it again!

I've read both of his books, and he vocalizes in public and in print many things I've long believed myself. In his first book he points out that when he was going after bad practices by big business, Ralph Nader hailed him as a hero; but when he turned his camera on the same practices by the government, he suddenly was a "traitor", "shill", and "corporate whore".

I think he's great.
