What stood out is that the government official to whom he was addressing his comments and questions clearly could not understand what Rand Paul was getting out.
She definitely did not in any way comprehend why anyone could even think the way that Paul was. Her response: But all of these regulations have been “bi-partisan,” and thus no reason for arguing their lack of justification. Because being “bi-partisan,” it must be good for the country. Isn’t that what democratic consensus is all about?
And the chairman of the committee’s comment? Well, he is sorry that Rand Paul has been having plumbing problems!
It is an uphill fight when people do not even understand what a lack of freedom entails.
