“We are in an economic war. It is a war between those who createwealth and those who believe they have some sort of divine mandateto appropriate wealth. They don’t have such an authoritative command.I don’t think they ever did. We have tried their command-andcontrolmethods for nearly a century because they said they knewbetter. It is now obvious that they didn’t.”

“We are today engaged in a war. It is an economic war over oursovereignty as human beings with inalienable rights to life, liberty, andthe pursuit of happiness. The “pursuit of happiness” means the rightto create wealth through our labor and to enjoy the fruits thereof.The battle now is over who has the moral, the ethical, and the legalright to the fruits of our labor. Are we to be free, or are we to beslaves? Just whose money is it anyway?”

“The question is not whether we should or should not regulate; itis how much should we regulate and who the regulators shouldbe. We went overboard on deregulation under Reagan. UnderBush, many people lost in the casino. Now we have the Obamaadministration overreacting and overreaching with regulation thatdoes the exact opposite of wealth creation. If we are to have changewe can believe in, then we could start by replacing the majorityof the lawyers in regulatory agencies with actual experienced, successfulbusiness veterans. They would have recognized the early warningsigns of many of the financial debacles created by the bubble-bustcycle.”

“There is a major difference between theoretical knowledge andexperiential knowledge. Academics think they know how the economyshould work; successful business owners know how the economy doeswork. They have been there and done it. Our government should beturning to those who have experiential knowledge when it comes tosolving our fiscal problems. They would realize that many of theircurrent policies may sound good but don’t work in the real worldand must be abandoned. They would spend less and live within theirmeans. They would be promoting the creation of more entrepreneursand business owners, instead of hiring more bureaucrats, consultingmore academics, and enlisting more lawyers to harass and prosecutethe true wealth creators of this nation.”

“There are few problems in the world that economic prosperitycannot help solve. Yet the engines of that prosperity are under fierceattack. The forces that seek power over others have gained the upperhand against those that seek freedom. By harming wealth creation,they cause even more strain on society. Historically, this is nothingnew. State domination over its subjects has roots that connect statism,totalitarianism, communism, and socialism to more modern-day variantsof liberalism and progressivism. It is a constant fight and we mustwin.”

“Alwasy remember.... We are engaged in a battle for the continuation ofour capitalist, free-market economic model; our way of life; and ourliberty. The enemy is anticapitalist, believes in big government, embracescollectivist ideologies, and has, over the past century, infiltrated everylevel of our government and most of the banking industry. They don’t care about patriotism, although they may sport the red, white, andblue and the stars and stripes on their bumper stickers. They don’tcare about personal responsibility or civic duty. They don’t share yoursense of honor. All they care about is power and control over yourmoney and every aspect of your life.”
