This. He is still at least honest with his principles. Two issues with his speech. American socio-economic mobility is at an all-time low and land was plentiful for our ancestors partly because the native americans didn't have massive castles and standing armies that the nobility in Europe did so it was easier to rob their land.

Rand sounds like Davy Crockett did in his "Not yours to give" speech:

This is one of the best American speeches ever, and should be required reading for everyone. Long ago I copied it and sent it to each Town Council member.

Now there is someone that actually thinks, and talks like an adult. Take notes Mr. President.

I agree! He's fantastic! He isn't afraid to call a spade a spade and to suggest Congress actually think about doing the right thing for a change as opposed to making things worse.

Thanks for that link to a GREAT speech. Everyone should read it. In fact everyone should send it to their Congressmen and Senators!
