Rick Harrison from “Pawn Stars” at CPAC: “Why I’m a conservative”

by DCG

In case you don’t know about Rick, he and his family own a pawn shop in Las Vegas. He is a self-made millionaire (who never finished high school due to illness) and has been on TV for ten years doing “Pawn Stars.”

As a child, Harrison suffered from epileptic seizures starting at age eight, which would confine him to bed, and led to a lifelong love of reading. He survived government-run health care as a young child and does not endorse it.

He doesn’t believe in the government giving you everything. My favorite quotes of his in this speech:

We are primarily funded by readers. Please subscribe and donate to support us!

“If you try hard enough, you can achieve anything in this country.”
“We just want the government out of our way.”

Good speech to watch if you have the time.
