As a free person, I ought to be allowed if I'm dying to take something.
Where I live in Manhattan and where I work at ABC, people say 'conservative' the way people say 'child molester.'
Prosperity comes from leaving people free in a legal system that respects their persons and property so they can pursue their dreams while taking responsibility for their actions.
As coercive monopolies that spend other people's money taken by force, governments are uniquely unqualified to solve problems. They are riddled by ignorance, perverse incentives, incompetence and self-serving.
Companies don't get rich hurting their customers.
I was bullied as a kid, and I got a job on television. And I had a camera. And so I wanted to go after those business bullies. And I just have been following that instinct.

No transaction happens unless it is voluntary. It only happens if both of you think you win.
