Root would be more convincing without the maniacal pasted-on grin when he's talking. And it wouldn't hurt if he'd stop lying. Socialism has never worked anywhere in the world? That's a flat-out lie. It was working reasonably well here until around 30 years ago when it started getting systematically dismantled. It's worked quite well in much of Europe.

It'd probably be more accurate to say that unbridled Capitalism has never worked for long anywhere in the world...it leads to an extreme concentration of wealth which leads to extreme corruption.

so according to mr root the housing bubble was due to giving houses away to blacks and hispanics?
hmmm..i didnt seem to get that memo.i was under the impression that was due to the newly deregulated financial industry exploiting certain loopholes allowing them to consolidate mortgages into securities which they then paid accountants off to give those securities an AA rating in order to better con..*cough* i mean "trade", on the open market.which then inflated housing prices waaaay past their actual value and when this house of cards began to tumble these very same financial institutions begged for bailout money and left the american public not only paying for the bailout but also left holding the bag on homes that are still...to this day..decreasing in value.

racism? sure.but not against blacks or hispanics but rather the poor and working class.
Root is a libertarian? not by my definition.he is a corporatist.
people have been so indoctrinated into believing that capitalism is synonomous with democracy.this is a fallacy perpetuated by big business and it is inherently false.
the governments ONLY job concerning big business should be fraud protection but we have not seen that in years and instead have been subjected to big business infiltrating by way of purchasing all three branches and since they OWN the media the message of the decade is "free market is GOOD,regulation is BAD".
really? REEEALLY?
if you still believe that you have not been paying attention.

i agree with many libertarian views but not with this dude Root.
running for president mr Root?
good luck with that.
