He's just calling out the obvious that no one wants to admit or hear. Yes, power comes from a barrel of a gun. Did strong language and embargos get Saddam to step down? Hell no! We had to go in there and start bringing the pain. Did the Japanese take our warning before we dropped Fat Man and Little Boy on Hiroshima and Nagasaki? No. Has the Unite Nations EVER solved a problem in 60+ years through all their debates, strongly worded protests, declarations? Hell NO!.

Anyone that believes in "free markets" after seeing the French, Japanese and Chinese dump products and steal intellectual property in the 80s and 90s, the dotcom bubble, the real estate bubble and the recent Wall Street implosion is a complete nitwit. And no he's not out to destroy America. He most likely has tons of stocks, bonds and currency holdings - no I don't think he wants a Maoist, Stalinist, Leninist state. He wants to make lots of money. That's why he got his MBA from Harvard and worked at an IB. Free markets exist only in theory. To quote a titan of American capitalism, Hank Greenberg, the former CEO of AIG "all I want in life and business is an unfair advantage". Don’t think he gave much thought to Free Markets – unless it gave him an advantage.
