Anyone see the speech that the CEO of RyanAir gave at an EU summit?

Just found this today. If any of you have read Atlas Shrugged, you know who John Galt is. (This speech was probably not near as long as John Galt's though)

Excellent speech - thanks for posting it.

Up with private enterprise and down with stifling socialism! We must shrink government.

He kinda pi$$ed off the EU guy, who made a lamea$$ counterattack at the end.

Good stuff!

The problem these days isn't so much socialism but corporatism. Unfortunately, most people these days believe that it is the duty of government to take care of them from cradle to grave. It abounds here in the US as evidenced by the increasing reliance on government programs to protect people from all the uncertainties of life. The winners naturally are the politicians, bureaucrats and ALL the worthless government employees who all work to make society dependent upon them.

I know I was expecting a bit more from the headline alone, but Some advertising, with a few good points, and some humor thrown in made it an enjoyable video, even at 10 minutes long
