Rand Paul Reads Ayn Rand Quote At Hearing Chaired By Bernie Sanders 

Nobody ever gets prosecuted who should. They just toss some underling in jail if it ever gets that far. But you are on the right track that its charade after charade. They need to pretend they are doing work to make it look like democracy is happening and collect a check. "Are you not entertained?"

The Justice department has to bring charges because the Representatives don't have that power. It turns political because each party will protect it's constituents.

@@blazerchris5444 "I'm shocked, shocked to find that there's gambling in this establishment." Casablanca

This is more or less an interview rather than a hearing. Those invited don't even need to show. It's entertainment.

Blather... Nothing but blather... sort of like complaining on YT about our politicians.. Aint nothing ever going to get done.

Speaking truth

Ideology is about power over you. The universities insist on it.

The leading problem with every Conservative’s and Libertarian’s “Liberty” argument is that none of you are capable of leaving the American people alone. That’s why your elected politicians have spent the past 50 years sabotaging a once effective economy and saddling the country with growing debt over counterproductive billionaire tax cuts.

Be happy about yourself.... Let others be happy too

Being responsible for a large retail corporation is inherently not "leaving people alone."

It is our right to form and join a union . Why would anyone want to take that RIGHT away. Many DIED fighting for that right . Unchecked capitalism will roll right over the pheasants. Read history.

Do you mean that the Iraq people do not have rights for democracy like you and Mr. Paul have?

The truth is not for all men, but only for those who seek it. Ayn Rand

The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. Ayn Rand

Yep the clown legacy lives on.

Not at all... Bernie has 4 copies of "Atlas Shrugged"... he keeps them on all 4 of his nightstands... in the bedrooms of each of his 4 multi-million dollar homes. Bernie "the socialist" Sanders is just a character that he plays on TV

@@rayRay-pw6gz Yes. Suffered greatly under the exact kind of policies that the honorable Mr. Sanders promotes.

@@HansMcGruber read Gulag Archipelago, look at what large companies did when Hitler instituted Socialism.

Same way Ayn Rand lived off welfare.

Not sure I’d go that far but he’s definitely speaking to people who are anti-individualistic, resentful of entrepreneurs who’ve forged their own paths and too scared to live life on their own terms without apology and will waste years working to accomplish someone else’s dream rather than their own. I’m a massive Ayn Rand fan and this Rand has gone up in my estimation…

You know that the basis of capitalism is that people who own nothing but their workforce have to work for people that live from that workforce?

@@klauspeter5407 nope that's incorrect, the basis of capitalism is voluntary transactions between two or more economic agents and the respect of the private property.

Funny how Rand Paul allows capitalism and inequality to exist together, which means that Rand Paul has been nurtured by corporate enough that he sadly cannot sense the corruption.

Lol! Common sense just like his dad there is none nice try

Who knew that you had to pay for companies to filter your water

Then you've been deceived by charisma, flowery rhetoric and great storytelling capabilities. Tell me, should all of that not be secondary to a Senator addressing the topic? Read what's on the screen. Did a single word out of Rand Paul's mouth for those 5 minutes, come close to talking about the topic? If not, he's as far from a shining example as the rest of them.

Boy you really set the bar low. What bills has he wrote that were passed that made your life better ?

Sadly beyond the grasp of most dummycrats.

I bet that moron Bernie Sanders was pissing his pants trying to come up with a rebuttal to Dr. Paul. Rand Paul is an American hero, just look at the difference: rand Paul is a successful doctor and one of the most important members of Congress, and a long term senator, Bernie Sanders is a communist reject, a loser who has never produced anything of value his entire life and has never done anything of noteworthiness, never even had an actual job, and yet he has still made a living and millions of dollars being a useless parasite who lives to deride the system that has made him so wealthy

Agreed.

Indeed, what is this clown show costing...? A total waste of Taxpayers 💵💵💵💵 Bolshevik Bernie at it again....👎

The thing is, as Senator Paul mentions, is that we don't HAVE to buy Starbuks coffee. IT IS A CHOICE. So is working there.

@@richdilorenzo8145 Are unions a choice?

Where is there capitalism? The government takes my money to bail out CEOs who failed at running a business.

The fact that they think they need to shows how far the government has fallen from purpose

If Schultz was in possession of a pair of stones, he'd ask that corrupt grifter Sanders point blank where he got his $millions and his three houses on a government salary.

The sick part is, Dan here is probably a working class guy, who will struggle to retire at all, and be picked and plucked away by medical bills, and STILL defends the guy not paying his workers a living wage. It's the height of slave mentality.

​@@Yoseman1 The sick part is you think the whole world owes you a life of luxury. Nobody owes you shit. And nobody is forcing you and your SB union sisters to work at Starbucks. *NOBODY.* You and the rest of your little communist cabal are free to quit and go somewhere else. And we will all be glad to see you GTFO. The world will just be a better place. Oh, and one more thing: there's nothing more pathetic than a loser giving his own comment a thumbs up.

Paul is a fucking tool. Starbucks is in no way a service to humanity.

Maybe the USA should earn a good president? (And anywhere else should too, for that matter.)

I have never had anything from starbucks for that very reason.

Someone I work with bought me a cup of coffee from Starbucks because I said I've never had one before and I quickly found out it's absolute garbage. The worst cup of coffee I've ever had. It was so disgusting I couldn't finish half of it. Absolute disgusting!🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

@@scotttwood Your personal values should not be enforced by law.

@@TeaParty1776 you make no sense?

Just checked the menu. A 12 oz cup of hot coffee is around $2, whereas a 12 oz cup of hot coffee at McDonalds is about $2, but keep perpetuating the myth.

"The system is rotten, burn it down" is the mainstream left on every Western university campus.

But its not the Garden Of Eden so we should tear it all down!

Keep in mind, we have politicians playing nuclear football right now and destroying the economy through currency debasement at an unprecedented rate. We may take some of our advantages for granted, but we have also had the benefit of our gains stolen away through direct and indirect taxation, so we are not seeing the full benefit of technological innovation and productivity. Instead people like Bernie Sanders are trying to set the morality tone by policing businesses for not living up to their fantasy standards of higher wages while destroying the purchasing power of the dollar. Sometimes I wonder whether these clowns even own mirrors.

The Senator has never been poor

Or would have been a Senator if it wasn’t for daddy

Yes, and you can damn well bet that the leftist scumbags that caused the hyperinflation will blame it on evil capitalism.

That's the government spending too much.

@@jmseipp wrong man

@@jmseipp Capitalism has lifted more people out of poverty, by far, than any other system ever tried throughout any time in human history. This is the objective data and truth. This is why people come to America, fleeing other nations and often dying in the process. Capitalism has afforded us to have a MASSIVE social programs including schools, police and fire departments, water and sanitation services, building codes, mail service, rural utility and internet services where it is not economically possible to service such rural areas, an military that protects our nation and people, an the list goes on and on and on. This is only possible because of our foundation that is built on Capitalism. I have lived on 3rd-world nations, in very poor areas of those nations (Peace Corps) and trust me that every single person there wants what we have. Appreciate this great nation for all that it has given you and all the opportunities that surround you. Go out into the world and get after it son!

@@gabev6172 To hear a rebuttal from Bernie would have been a truly informative moment. I don't like one sided debates. CNN is great at that RU-vid could have done better.

Right? I like my Folgers Select instant coffee over Maxwell House, but it still remains true that I can pay $8 for about a months worth of coffee. And on top of that, I can almost go to the store, buy a jar, get back home or to work, and mix it in hot water before I could get to the order window at the Starbucks locations near me. They always have a line out onto the streets and people pissed of honking at each other. No thanks to all that, but I respect Starbucks for being successful at getting so many people to go stark raving mad for a mediocre cup of coffee.

Only non-union stores are allowed to receive credit/debit card tips, with which a majority of customers pay by credit/debit, so it's not quite true regarding "tips."

I worked a job where I took coffee breaks at a small independent cafe across the street from Starbucks. There was never a wait. I got my delicious coffee instantly and was able to sit and sip for 15 minutes while across the street a line of clowns waited 15 minutes to get a Starbucks malt, frappe, vanilla cinnamon twist concoction they had to gulp down on the run as they rushed back to their 9 to 5 cubicles, lol.

Bernie is a best selling author... *Let's analyze how a socialist can sell products in an open market for a profit and supposedly make millions of dollars* First off, nobody buys Bernie Sander's books. He gets the government in power to buy up his books using tax payer dollars and then gives his books away for free. Kamala Harris did the same thing with her children's books. *This is called "corporatism" and is completely different than capitalism. In fact, it's totally socialism in every sense of the word. Bernie (and many in the DNC including Hunter Biden) forces hard working tax payers to pay for the garbage they create and you have no say in the matter* Hunter Biden's artwork was bought for $800M for a finger painting he did. You could have bought the most expensive Rembrandt and had money left over. The Mob never went away... they are still organized crime... they just changed their name to the DNC.

@@blazerchris5444 A cup of coffee where I live (The real kind and not that folgers or maxwell house weak stuff) is only 30 cents a cup. So strong, you can stand a spoon in it.. America's food industry has sold Americans a bill of goods. Coffee in the 70's and 80's (pipeline coffee) was the best. Now you have to live in Turkey if you want the real deal.

Accurate.

The problem with fighting the left is that they're all angry children who think they're fighting the ultimate battle of good vs. evil, whereas the right generally knows it's fighting upset children. It is hard to be enthusiastic about fighting children, at least before they draw blood.
