to me, that s leadership. it sounds like you re leaning toward endorsing hillary clinton. i don t get to endorse anybody. our members get to do that. we re going to listen, go through the process and we re going to give everybody a fair shake. we re going to try to give our members the facts, honest facts about what everybody stands for and then have them make a decision. i want to bring up joe biden but his ghostly presence will be in las vegas. i know you marched with joe biden last month at a labor day parade. here s what the vice president told the crowd. 1% of americans owns 40% of all the wealth in america. they re not bad people. here s the deal, folks. it s set up that way. it s set up that way. got really fired up talking about middle class america and wage inequality. people in the crowd were yelling for joe biden to run for
rand? i wanted a guy that says government is too big. we re about to go broke. no one has clearly proposed budget cuts and said maybe some of the wars you love so much may not be a idea. maybe if he would go full blown to be the man he really is, he might be doing better. to please republicans, he s gotten tougher on some things that don t make me comfortable. i don t know. libertarianism, once i discovered the principle, it makes so much sense. i thought everyone will get this once they understand. i keep waiting. libertarians always think that. gary johnson is the libertarian candidate. that s why you like him. what about carly fiorina. she was third. she and jeb bush at least understand what creates wealth in america. bush cuts spending in florida. i was impressed he cut spending
when they re ten years away from retirement saying we were just kidding. you re going to have to work an extra ten years. part of the problem is the way we fund social security and medicare. it s all through payroll tax. i m a passionate supporter of the fair tax because it helps create a levelized funding stream for those programs. the fewer number of people that are actually getting their paychecks through wages is dramatic. most people get their wealth in america by dividends and investment income. as a result, you have a shrinking pool of money going into pay for those programs. thousands of people retiring every day. common sense says that doesn t work. yes, let s change the funding stream to a more reliable one, which is the consumption tax. doesn t common sense say we should raise the retirement age? when it was set, this was at a time when people s life
