Same here.. He sounds on target for the first 10 mins.. First time I heard him I liked him. Then I started hearing how he wanted to get rid of pretty much everything govt run and turn it over to the private sector.
Bush and co have done that pretty well. Look how bad it's hurt us in Iraq and hell just look at the VA hospitals. When they were govt run, they were among the best of the best. Cheney pushed to turn the VA's over to private corporations and they went to total shit.
The corporations profited meanwhile the soldiers whom served this nation received sub-par treatment.
While govt is the 500lbs gorilla on our back, it's much better than letting Big Business run it. As they don't ever have to answer to anyone.
