Jon was very light-handed in the interview which was the polite thing to do. Ron lost me here though. I had been tempted to try him out, but after this interview...that's a no go.
He basically said that the market will self-police better than the government. That's a complete crock. The old man is misguided. He doesn't just want to remove the stupid, wasteful laws,...he wants to remove all the damn laws. Too fucking far for my taste.
The guy's positions have been about as constant as you can possibly get in politics, and have become much more well known the last couple years, but somehow a brief interview with a comedian has decided it for you?
Yes. I saw the interview. I know the track record for being consistent. I didn't know much about the guy, that's all. It's new information because it's NEW INFORMATION.
It's not like I heard it once and then changed MY mind. I'd just never heard that out of him before. He sounds great in some of his speeches about waste. I'd never heard him come out and say he wanted a fully unfettered market place.
