Lech Walesa gives his view of the world and some friendly advice to the United States of America
He speaks about the state of Entrepreneurs and Capitalism and the lack of morality in our government today.
This man is one of a very, very few politicians that I have respect for these days. He is of the mold of our founding fathers in that he put his life on the line when he got into politics. He led the way for the downfall of the Soviet Union and is truly one of the great leaders of the past 100 years. If you are old enough to remember the time when he lead Poland on a path to Democracy and most importantly Free Market Capitalism, you may feel the same way I do.
He stared down execution and torture to lead Poland to its current prosperity and freedom as a Union Organizer for the shipbuilders. And unlike the Union organizers in the US, he then went on to be and still is one of the biggest promoters of Free Market Capitalism and Entrepreneurs in the world. He has also seen first hand the destruction and evil that Intellectual Elitism, Communism and Socialism can do first hand and offers some advice for the people of the United States.
This from a man who has been there and done that and actually walks the talk. And look , no teleprompters! 🙂
Here is a link to a very well done piece by Time magazine of all places. While he is far from perfect, he is someone with experience and knows how things work concerning government and Entrepreneurs and how to get things done. He is someone with those two qualities that America Politicians lack, and that the American people and businesses could sorely use right now.
Cheers,
Andrew
