(Video) #DNC2012 convention goers: Banning profits is a Good Thing!

**Posted by Phineas

Man, between the blatant display of anti-Israel and borderline antisemitic sentiment yesterday and their satisfaction at finding their American identity through government, the nation’s Democratic activists are really showing America what their party stands for.

But wait, there’s more!

Posing as an anti-business crusader, Peter Schiff found a number of DNC delegates and attendees who support explicitly outlawing profitability. We deliberately avoided speaking with the occupy protestors camping outside in tents to get a more “mainstream” Democratic perspective!

Watch and learn:

Bear in mind that Schiff may well have interviewed more people than we see in this video, and that at least some of those may have disagreed with him, but, still… Pretty eye-opening, isn’t it?

These people represent the leadership of the state and national Democratic parties; they’re not your average Joe and Jane Six-Pack Democrat who’s votes that way just because his family has always voted Democrat. It makes you wonder just how many would be comfortable hearing calls to cap profits, eliminate profits, or even force losses on companies.

Or, as one woman put it:

“I will support anything my President wants to do. Anything!”

The difference between the two major parties couldn’t be any more stark. But the Republicans, I’ll argue, represent far more closely the opinions of average Americans than the grade-school Marxism we hear in this video.
