9:00 o'clock pacific on fox business i am kennedy and thank you for watching our show.. . john: it's goliath, he's so big and scary. what chance does david have? today, davids all over the world are crushed by goliath government. >> hundreds of riot police knock activists to the ground. john: beer makers farmers, entrepreneurs, goliath says -- >> they're not properly regulated. john: goliath takes some of their home. >> not fair it's not right, but there's no telling when this nightmare will end. john: can david defeat goliath? that's our show tonight. .

john: today in america goliath no longer looks like that. these days he's more likely to wear a tie and carry a clipboard. the davids he attacks are mostly entrepreneurs who have the nerve to make a buck running a business. hairdressers, yoga instructors, dentists, tour guides flower sellers, most anyone who goes into business is soon surprised to find himself up a bureaucrat who says you may not, unless you obey all our rules and give us lots of money. some of those davids are fortunate to find help from a law firm that takes their case for free. the institute for justice, lawyers sue the government when government really crosses the line. one of those lawyers is jeff rose. you sue the government when bureaucrats impose licensing rules, but most americans like licensing. they think we license dogs drivers, they think it makes us safer. >> you know, that's just not true, and you know it's not true that they like it or it

makes us safer. >> they don't like us and it makes us safer. that's a myth up there with big foot. there's not a lick of empirical evidence that it provides us with better products. john: it makes sense, you license a doctor to make sure he knows what he's doing or a dentist. or a flower seller what if they deliver flowers that are about to die. >> nobody in america -- >> for a doctor. >> nobody had an wish a doctor and said i'm going spearhead a licensing movement. licensing comes from the regulated industries themselves. and they love licensing because it is a barrier to entwleechlt you create barriers, you drive prices up and keep people out. you clobber competitors and funnel money out of consumers. >> give me an example.

>> the casket making monks live outside lake pontchartrain and hand make them and sell them to the people. the state of lous says that's a felony, because only licensed funeral directors sell boxes. you can't establish boxes to make funeral directors rich. john: it wasn't the politicians on their own that did, this it's the established funeral directs who are go to government and get goliath to push the little guy out. >> the monks aren't litigious, they're men of god. what they tried to do in 2008 and 2010, they went to legislators and both times clobbered by the funeral industry lobby. john: they're organized and rich. >> and rich. and you cannot get, like the ordinary citizen cannot go to the government plead and get the law changed. special interests can't that's why we need the constitution to protect us.

john: increasingly his constitute fights governments when they confiscate people from property accused of breaking the law. it's really outrageous as the video explains. >> welcome to the forfeiture machine. civil forfeiture is when police and prosecutors seize property they suspect is connected to a crime. if you are charged with a crime, the government must prove your guilt and provide you an attorney if you can't afford one. in the upside down world of civil forfeiture it's your property that gets charged and you must prove it isn't guilty. nowhere is the civil forfeiture machine more active than in philadelphia. john: what's happening in philadelphia. >> what the police do in philadelphia, if they think property is connected to a crime whether you yourself are guilty. they don't have to charge you much less convict you of a crime. they take people's houses they take houses because a relative

may have gone in the street and sold a tiny amount of drugs, and police swoop in and want to seize the house, we're putting a stop to it. john: some places you are, still going on nationwide. goliath isn't just trying to punish people they consider criminals, they have the extra incentive? >> that's right. when police seize things they can use it for salaries trips, and if you look at the way police behave, you know ushgsd do one of two things as a police officer. you could seize a car full of drugs or let the dealer sell the drug. they set up stings on the side of the highways where drug dealers are leaving town with cars full of money, not the side where police are coming into town with cars full of drugs. >> if a criminal does bad things and gets due process and convicted, i don't care if he loses property. with civil forfeiture, innocent people are punished.

>> meet jackie, jackie lives in modest house with three grandchildren. one day the police arrested jackie's oldest grandson outside her home for selling a small amount of marijuana. there were no drugs inside, and jackie has never been in trouble with the law. yet philadelphia wants to forfeit and sell jackie's home. the prosecutor wants to ask if jackie agrees to give up her home in exchange for half the sales price. worn down jackie reluctantly accepts, it's not fair, not right. there's no telling when the nightmare will end. john: she gives up home because she's worn down. i shortened the video, you don't understand why she's worn down, explain. >> they have a weird court where they make you keep coming and coming back and coming again, sometimes they ask for documents, sometimes they ask for something new. they keep coming and say we'll

tell you what we'll give you your property back but we want half of it. they don't have lawyers and shrug shoulders and get whatever they get. john: if they miss a meeting, it could go on. >> it could go on a year two years. we're attacking not just policing for profit fundamentally unconstitutional but getting rid of the kangaroo courts run by the prosecutors themselves. john: you represent jackie she already lost her house? >> yes. john: so how can you help her? >> we have other clients. what we're moving on in philadelphia is to get property back. we want to break the locks off the homes and gift homes back to the people. that's what we're doing. john: last case an arkansas orthodontist offers to clean teeth. >> that's right. he's an orthodontist, staff cleans teeth every day. low-income families with kids who don't have insurance and

don't get dentistry every day. i'm going offer cleanings for a third of the price. in swoopes the state dental board, if you clean teeth we're going to take your orthodontist license away. he's got 100 employees and the government says we're going to take your license if you give safe inexpensive people. john: we're not against his price is low, but they only swooped in after he lowered the price. >> exactly. that tells you something about what the government is really interested in and the kind of interests that are driving the government. john: thank you, jechlt let's hear from other entrepreneurs, davids who were not lucky enough to get a free lawyer for the institute of justice. in virginia a woman who runs a farm was shocked when environmental inspector demanded to search inside all of the house, even closets. this woman is one of the inspectors. >> i don't want to get into an argument about. this i'm asking if i can look

in the closet. it's a yes or no closet. is there something in it i can't see? >> it has to do with individual personal and property rights. >> i would think in america, individuals ought to have those rights. the farmer is martha boneta. joined by marty kotis who runs a brewery and restaurants. he had the nerve to sell his own beer, and state regulators told you, you may not. >> there was a prohibition we weren't aware of that said you can't own a brewery and a restaurant. john: this is prohibition era law, this is to protect the customers? >> right, they say it's to protect the public but really to protect the distributors. john: they have friendly relationships with the politicians. >> one of the largest lobbies in the nation. john: i noticed you taped out something on the bottle, this is the stuff pig pounder?

>> pig pound jeer sort of an ugly name, i guess people want it. what are you taping out? what's that about? >> we have on the back, the list of the different restaurants. in north carolina, that's not allowed on a beer bottle but a wine bottle it's allowed. john: you've spent $100000 on lawyers trying to solve this? >> yes, and we're not done yet. john: martha you bought the property that's now your farm from an environmental group basically. >> correct, yes. and, you know, it's not unusual in rural areas families acquire properties that have agricultural liens on them. our family purchased property that has agriculturaleesment. it has become a government by proxy and done the abusive invasive inspections, they

wanted to install surveillance cameras to spy on my family and friends to see what we were doing every day. john: why? you must have made them mad? >> they exceeded authority when. farmers agree to the easements they don't agree to have toilets and bathrooms, laundry photographed, to have personal private possessions photographed. this particular land trust really has violated and trespassed and far exceeded anything that would permit them to do this because my question, is what does buy it my closet have to do with the environment or conservation? john: it's not just the environmental groups they get cozy with the government. >> exactly. >> the county found you in violation for having a birthday party fair 10-year-old girl? >> yes, it was my childhood dream to be a farmer. we worked hard to get the farm. and never dreamed there would be miles and miles of red tape and regulation i had a party

for eight 10-year-old girls i had a threatening violation for county and we would need to have a site plan, a special exception permit administrative permit, full-blown hearings as well as what we produced on the farm to have a birthday party or carve pumpkins at pumpkin patch. john: part of your farm is a tourist attraction. you have emus here you sell emu meat? >> no, we sell eggs. we have 285 animals. one of the greatest joys of my life is bring the public and the community to the farm to experience small working family farm. john: sheep, duck, bees beekeeper. >> we have llamas and alpacas and sheep and goats. john: you charge money for things? >> i do i do. and being able to sell what you produce on the farm, the fruit of your labor, goes back since the beginning of time. and such an important part of our heritage, and it was so

devastating and heart breaking to have the county shut us down for doing what farmers have done since forever. john: three armed sheriffs showed up? >> the zoning administrator sent three armed sheriffs to interrogate farmers on the farm. john: what do you mean? >> they wanted to know what we were doing on the farm. collected names and phone numbers, wanted to know where they lived and asked a series of questions. it is a private property work farm, we should be able as a family to have anybody we want to come visit. if it's students volunteering, what business is that of the government to intervene? >> i would think no business maybe that's why martha's story has kind of a happy ending. some people were outraged enough one wrote a protest song how she sold good products, until -- until the day the county came and tried to shut her down ♪

♪ strike a blow for freedom. john: push back from the public the virginia legislature passed a special law making it clear if zoning laws allow farming you're allowed to make money from the farm. so you've won? >> it's hard to be a family farmer, and most family farmers want to be left alone to work hard and make ends meet and be viable on the land. this bill gets closer to achieving that with little government intervention. john: a little doesn't solve the problem? >> unfortunately it doesn't it. prevents the county from requiring permits and hearings and thousands of dollars in fees. you know -- >> so you know about this, i know marty you were surprised when you just made beer and thought i've got restaurants, i'll sell my beer at restaurants? >> yeah, doesn't make sense. i'm a free market guy, and i believe that rules should only exist if they serve the public.

and i can't think how the public is served from this. john: me neither. thank you, martha marty. to join this discussion follow me on twitter at fbn stossel, use the hashtag goliath or "like" my facebook page to post on my wall. coming up, how goliath tries to crush david when the service offered by david is obviously much better? hiring new employees can be tough. but it doesn't have to be. because now you can post to over 50 of the top job boards with just one click- with ziprecruiter. find candidates in any industry, nationwide. just post once and watch your qualified candidates roll in to ziprecruiter's easy to use interface. find out today why ziprecruiter has been used by over 250,000 businesses. they even offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. and right now, you can try ziprecruiter, for free. go to ziprecruiter.com/free90

. >> we have to pay big money for licenses get fingerprints get insurance. john: she's upset about ride-sharing companies like uber uber takes customers but doesn't follow all the regulations in her town. nevada's response to that was to ban uber. it's pretty weird to call uber a david. the company valued at up to 40 billion dollars. that sounds like a goliath. but the truth is unlike government uber can't use force. the company got big only because it's better, customers prefer it. they voluntarily choose its price and convenience. in response, government regulators ban it it's banned in thailand spain massachusetts, and nevada because uber doesn't follow all

of government's rules. >> the government really needs to draw a line. >> this is creating a situation where they're basically a free-for-all, they can operate how they want charge what they want, do whatever routes they want. john: yeah! what's wrong with that? if the customer doesn't like, it they don't have to choose uber. even though the government says we need the regulations to keep you from being ripped off. nevada's politicians who band uber have a cozy relationship with the existing taxi industry, and for years, tourists complained las vegas cabbies rip us off by taking us to the strip by a round about route. i learned more about this from a blog post by blake ross the founder of firefox. he writes that a cabbie ripped him off and that added about ten bucks to the fare. it turns out one in three cabbies do that in las vegas undercover cops tested them.

goliath then responded the way governments do they came up with complex rules and warnings. ross calls it a five-point plan. plan a people with guns taxi police set up a roadside checkpoint. cops stopped cabs and offered to prosecute drivers who took inefficient routes. in other words, the government slows you down to make sure your driver doesn't. it didn't work. tourists didn't want to spend vegas vacation in court. only three passengers chose to press complaints. they just wanted to get to their hotels. duh! plan b big signs, each enumerates proper taxi fares for every conceivable trip using approximately twice as many words as it took ronald reagan to tear down the berlin wall, and almost as long it took the taxicab authority tro years to put up the signs.

all things take time said the administrator. even then that effort was pointless, 7% of people read the signs. so goliath implemented plan c, the big spreadsheet. this didn't do the trick either. cheating was worse than ever. so plan d, the pdf, goliath asks to you print out the long route voluntary witness statement, complete sworn affidavit in the view of a public notary. ross officer a few insider tips to keep in mind when taking a cab in vegas. carry a desktop computer, printer, envelope stamps a fax machine and notary. and note the driver's full name permit number and physical appearance if you don't have the information memorized, ask the driver when you are locked in the taxi with him. explain you're trying to have him fired. remember to bring $10 to pay the notary so can you complain

you were overcharged by $10. ross tried out government system when he was ripped off in vegas but never heard back from anyone. that's goliath at work. finally government's plan e. the nevada taxicab authority voted to convene a committee the committee will draw up guidelines for software package, nevada estimates it will cost about 6 million dollars per year and you'll pay through this through increase in taxi fares which are double the price of uber x ride which goliath banned in nevada. they banned uber but uber already has a solution to the problem of drivers who cheat. on the uber app, customers give that driver just one star. within hours uber adjusts your fare. if a driver keeps scamming people he's fired. simple. better. but vegas officials, goliath, kicked the company out of town. government is force.

government can't always win, even when it's wrong. next a man who was arrested after taking pictures of this arrest. when people hassle the police who's goliath? who's david?

pregnancy, we call it nine months but in actuality, it's ten months. it's 40 weeks. it's very, very important, if you can, to wait for delivery until 39 weeks because that, after 39 weeks, your risks are much less for many complications. by letting that baby get born at term, you're improving the lifelong health of that baby.

. >> help me, please. john: that's video of austin texas police officers pulling a woman out of a car. a bystander also took these still pictures of the event. he thought the police were abusing the woman. so who's right? who's david and who is goliath in that situation? did the police abuse that woman? or the man who confronted the police abuse underpaid civil servants with police officers being shot, it's not always clear who's david and who's

goliath, but antonio buehler says it's clear to him, he was the bystander in that video, and you say no question, the police are goliaths? >> yeah, they can commit crimes, they can kill people and get away with it. john: commit crimes? they can't get away with that? >> they have in my case. they abused a woman not committing a crime. john: it was a dui arrest. >> she was a passenger, she had not committed a crime she was not suspected of committing a crime. they pulled her out of vehicle, abused her, i tried to ask questions, they came up to me and falsely charged me with a felony crime i did not commit. john: this is where i think your argument is best our best protection against the people we empower to imprison us is the camera. it's legal everywhere in america to photograph the police doing their jobs but lots of people get arrested for that, and the cops who do it,

to my knowledge, never get punished. in your case the austin police say you spat on me you're resisting arrest? >> that's right, and even though we had numerous witnesses step forward to say that was a lie, and had audio and video, they continued to push my charges against me. it took 15 months to go to a grand jury at which time they indicted me on four new charges. john: two years, you got a jury trial, and the jury said let him go? >> two years and nine months before we took it to trial, took it that long for them to give us the dash cameras. john: and one of the austin cops testified for you. >> actually. he crossed the thin blue line and was fired once he told commanders he was going to testify. john: you call yourself a police accountability activist? >> i do that on the side. my main job is education.

john: you've been arrested a bunch of times taking pictures? >> arrested five times and every single time i was trying to film the police. john: to defend the police they go into the situations and often are scared they don't who's in the car, if they're armed. cops have been killed, they're being nervous and careful. >> cops have a relatively safe job, safer than pilots sanitation workers. john: this is remarkable they often say we should get paid more because our job is much more dangerous, it's much less dangerous than fishing or farming or being a roofer or garbage man. >> and every life that is lost is tragic but police officers like soldiers volunteer for jobs that carry the risk of violence. the people they abuse never volunteered for that. john: they do go into the situation scared. the fishermen and the logger

don't. there is an extra element of fear in police work. >> i think a lot of the fear is self-generate. they continually tell themselves they're victims, they are targeted. >> you say there are certain things the public should know when dealing with a police officer? >> by filming the police you can save a life. you can provide the evident which will exonerate an innocent person and the act of filming police changed the behavior of the police to where they're more likely to respect the dignity of the people that they're interacting with. john: you have to be careful not to interfere with the arrest. if you keep your distance have you every right to take pictures? >> the distance, is it depends on the situation, when we film police in highly crowded areas downtown, we'll get as close as 15, 10 feet to them. there's people walking within a couple feet of them. they aren't concerned or scared of the random passerbier they

are scared of people with cameras. john: coming up, how libertarians are mocked by goliaths like bill o'reilly. >> i know you're a libertarian, but don't be a loon.

@?

. john: thank goodness for the environmental protection agency. america's a better place to live because their rules forced us to clean the air and water. good work epa! but now i think epa should stand for enough protection already! the air is cleaner than it's been in 60 years. but goliath never stops. the epa still has 16,000 bureaucrats who always want to do more! their biggest target is the coal industry. here's what candidate barack obama said to the editorial board of the newspaper. >> if somebody wants to build a coal powered plant, they can,

it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum. john: and now that he's president, his epa has moved to do that. the davids in the story are people like darren old coyote leader of montana's crow nation. members dig coal out of ground? >> for the last 40 years, mining cole on the reservation. we own about 90 billion tons of coal and mining for the last 40 years. john: coal does produce lots of greenhouse gases if you worry that global warming is a real problem and it might be what you do is the biggest part of that problem, so maybe the president's right and you should just stop. >> well, if there's an alternative for us right now, you know, with 47% unemployment rate on the reservation, without coal in the picture, in

the mix, we'll be basically almost 100% unemployment rate on the reservation. 16,300 members travel on the reservation, for the last 40 years, it's been our bread and butter. john: startled what the epa said to you when you said this is our bread and butter, they said get some welfare programs? >> we went to the epa in 2006. they wanted to shift down the mine for high sulfur content and they went to the agency and said they're going to shut down the mine. you can go to the department of scombrr look for welfare programs that it can utilize. we're not here for handout. we want to be self-sufficient as a tribe. we want to utilize the natural resources to help our people, and we don't want to go to the government and ask for handouts, and that's not who we are and what we're about to do and epa is not giving alternative to provide for our

families. john: when president obama released the proposal for the new epa rules he said people like you are special interests who exaggerate the harm regulation will bring. >> special interests and our allies in congress will claim that these guidelines kill jobs and crush the economy. let's face it that's what they always say. john: you're exaggerating. >> we're not special interest groups. we are a group of people that are trying to make a living of coal and mining of coal. john: and i look at these pictures of what you do people say strip mining destroys the earth, we ought to get rid of it? >> for the last 20 years the mine, the reclamation work they've been getting awards for great reclamation work. john: reclamation means you

restore the land. >> you will find live antelope deer elk. john: looks great. >> better than before. john: better than before? >> better than it was, because we put in the native plants, native, all the animals go to the coal mine deer running around in the pit, and a lot of times, the reclamation is better work than what it was before. john: thank you, darin old coyote. i hope the crow nation finds a way to prosper without interior department handouts. coming up a goliath nastier than the epa. a communist government. >> hundreds of riot police knocked activists to the ground and dragged dozens away.

sheila! you see this ball control? you see this right? it's 80% confidence and 64% knee brace. that's more... shh... i know that's more than 100%. but that's what winners give. now bicycle kick your old 401(k) into an ira. i know, i know. listen, just get td ameritrade's rollover consultants on the horn. they'll guide you through the whole process. it's simple. even she could do it. whatever, janet. for all the confidence you need. td ameritrade. you got this.

. john: in america, goliath often crushes opportunity. sometimes arrests people unfairly, but we at least get to vote for our goliath. in other countries david can't even do that. >> in hong kong, violence flaring up as police go head-to-head with pro-democracy demonstrators. >> dragged dozens away.

>> we just want our democracy and a fair voting of choosing our leader for hong kong. john: they want to vote for leader. where can davids in the rest of the world can help when they want the rights that so many of us take for granted. turn to this group. >> welcome to the atlas network, we want every community to have an independent think tank promoting the ideas of freedom and liberty. we operate in a dozen languages in more than 80 countries. john: brad lips is the ceo of atlas network. you don't run these think tanks, you just support them? >> that's correct. atlas network trains supports fosters collaboration among more than 400 organizations worldwide that hold up these principles of individual liberty, free enterprise, you can imagine in some countries, in venezuela china, afghanistan, the people

attracted to this work are putting at risk their lives, fortunes very much like our founding fathers. john: you have people who sometime smuggle in the works of milton friedman and subversive books into the countries? >> true, back before the fall of the iron curtain, there was heroic activity that went on in getting materials into the then-soviet union. we can operate more freely in most parts of the world. john: china? >> china is an interesting case. right now one of our partners is headed to jail for doing the kind of work you and i think is patriotic work for working in civil society to put forward a very optimistic view of where the chinese future should be but what we have in china is a goliath to use your apt metaphor that doesn't want competing visions of what the future of china is.

john: let's talk about hong kong next to china, was independent, run by the british, until they made a deal to turn it over to the chinese, and the chinese said it will be special, we'll let it have capitalism, and eventually let them vote for leaders. >> the citizens of hong kong are supposed to be able to vote for their own chief executives in 2017. china is saying well you can vote, only among our hand selected nominees. john: why would anybody believe them in the first place? >> well, in certain respects the basic law has been upheld. there is an idea of two systems, one country, and some of what has made hong kong special, the economic liberties that made it a beacon of capitalism to the world have largely remained in place. it's very exciting to see so many average citizens in hong kong taking to the streets, recognizing that what they've had is special, recognizing that they don't want to just be another part of communist china. john: and recognizing they risk their safety and their futures

by protesting. >> correct, correct. john: and there are a few entrepreneurs who risked freedom and fortunes to fight goliath. one in hong kong is media tycoon jimmy lie. here is the newspaper headline don't be a slave. the reporter asked him why he chose that headline. >> we want to have the freedom, we want to have the democracy that we are entitled to and that's why we are fighting for it. john: so he's gutsy, they could do what putin has done to a bunch of tycoons. >> right, and jimmy lie is a hero, born in china had nothing, says that he received a chocolate bar from a stranger instead of loose change when he was trying to carry bags in a train stationment the taste of chocolate made him realize there is a better future than what existed in china. he emigrated to china, built the company, the rupert murdoch

of hong kong, and impressive to see him so principled in advocacy for free markets he's taking the public stand now. john: and gives money to the occupy central movement. i hate that they use the occupy term, the occupy movement in america is often so stupid. and libertarians have second thoughts about putting all our eggs in this movement because it's just about voting. >> right the organization that we work with in hong kong is called the lion rock institute and they've been very focused on economic policy those types of reforms. they think this is a decision -- >> really what makes people prosper. >> that's what made hong kong so special. there is an undercurrent to the occupy central movement trying to remove inequality and the things that can empower goliath misused by the government. john: russia. certainly putin is the goliath

of our time. >> when you talk to friends in ukraine, they see vladimir putinsa the external goliath that threatens them. he seized the crimea and invested in trying to foment conflict trying to create instability so ukraine will fail. he's like a child that sees a toy he can't have and wants to see it destroyed rather than enjoyed by someone else. the real challenge for the ukrainians are the reformers, they elected a new president, the best choice on the ballot. john: they have a long history of goliaths shutting people down. >> incredible corruption and cronysism difficult to reverse. when yanukovych left power last year, it was a tourist attraction, his presidential palace. it was a glaring example how he treated the country like his own piggy bank. he created next to all of the luxury vehicles a personal zoo with an ostrich and absurd

things like that. whether the current leadership can find the political will to undertake the kinds of reforms that poland undertook in 1989 and the republic of georgia in 2005, tough medicine ma can hurt in the short-term but the only way to clean out a corrupt system requires a lot of political wichlt hope they can do it. john: finally, cuba i would say davids are crushed by goliath's dictator but the castro brothers say america's goliath and people suffer because america imposed sanctions on cuba. >> the u.s. sanctions were designed to weaken the castros but in one way they became stronger. for half a century, the brothers told their people a david and goliath story that only communism would save them from suffering imposed by the united states. john: that was a slick pr campaign, and they talk about how can we prosper? we have the embargo. no embargo around cuba.

they can buy stuff from spanish speaking countries nearby. >> i don't believe nobody believes. that nobody in cuba, maybe tenures professors at brown or something, left unfetterred from the united states would have made cuba prosperous. john: so with this goliath so nasty, you don't have libertarian think tanks in cuba? >> no, and look forward to the day when it will be safe for an organization to openly criticize government policy in cuba. we're not there yet. john: thank you, brad lips of the atlas network, 400 think tanks in 80 countries fighting for liberty. coming up, how we libertarians are a lot like david. and an early morning mode. and a partly sunny mode. and an outside...to clear inside mode. transitions ® signature ™ adaptive lenses... ...now have chromea7 ™ technology... ...making them more responsive than

ever to changing light. so life can look more vivid & vibrant. why settle for a lens with just one mode? experience life well lit ®. speak with your eyecare professional to... ...upgrade your lenses to transitions ® signature ™ .

. john: unfortunately, when it comes to politics, i'm little david. i'm a libertarian, and in this country, democrats and republicans dominate. libertarians often get stomped on. i get trashed by bill o'reilly. >> i know you're a libertarian, don't be a loon. john: he mocks me if someone defends me. >> there's some people on the libertarian right like john stossel. >> but he's a loon stossel. >> libertarians that want to smoke pot all day don't work. john: give me a break! o'reilly is one of many people who dismisses libertarians. i get clueless comments like

that all the time. we goliaths don't have to argue with the libertarians you are so fringe loony. excuse me! libertarians wrote this constitution that limits government and made america success possible, and all the republicans and democrats get most of the votes, lately libertarian ideas have been winning. big government democrats just got kicked out of office. >> we won! >> and now republicans, some of them propose ending subsidies to big business. many argue that if we want to fight a war congress must approve it. and 52% of americans say the united states should mind its own business internationally. and let other countries get along the best they can on theiren. >> gay marriage is becoming a reality in florida. >> the cheers and tears continue across the state as

same-sex couples legally wed. john: florida became the 36th state to legalize same-sex marriage, and the right of gay people to have sex with any other adult is widely accepted. >> the movement behind school choice continues to grow. john: forcing schools to compete for students is no longer a fringe idea. private school choice programs serve 300,000 kids and charter schools and voucher programs serve more. >> voters in alaska, oregon and the district of columbia have approved legal recreational marijuana use. john: marijuana is now legal or soon will be. in four states plus washington, d.c. and finally -- >> welcome. >> thank you. john: entrepreneurs keep inventing cool new products and services like ride-sharing companies that evade government controls. and since customers like these services they tail goliath's regulators, back off! that's all good news.

but let's face it goliath still rules and grows. on this program we davids will keep fighting him. that's our show. see you next week. weekend, everyone. kennedy: government secrets there's a trunk full of bodies and stories and programs the government has tried to keep for years from deal it's not hard to let your mind wander. and the government does a horrible job and history will show that they have something to hide. so why have they not learned their lesson by now? we are living in the golden age of secrets. judge napolitano weighs in on modern mean we will go back a few 3 judge napolitano weighs in on modern mean we will go back a few decades as well. can you keep a great? neither can we?
