Free Market America is partnered with and funded by Americans for Limited Government (AFLG). (FMA) was founded and is run by Howard Rich, a New York real estate developer. Rich was active in the Libertarian Party and worked with Charles Koch to promote small-government and free-market causes. According to their website, the AFLG objective is to "...defend economic freedom against environmental extremism."

To be honest, I embrace a lot of what AFLG is proposing. But I am offended somewhat when people--from the left or the right--drop hand grenades like this video into a forum that supposedly is intended to encourage an exchange of political thought and discussion of issues. I don't think the posting of this video, with no attempt at interpretation or a suggestion of how the video supports or amplifies our political discourse is particularly productive.

Maybe someone could post a video funded by George Soros or some other left-sided person or organization. But if was simply dropped into this forum with no comment or explanation, it doesn't seem to me that would be productive either.
