He was born in a military base and he's benefitted from government programs since then. It reminds me of Phil Gramm, another uber right wing hypocrite.

Yet, he rants against government and government programs.

Do people like Knight have the ability to understand the conditions in this country when Social Security was created? Does he realize the Great Depression is the result of policies and economic conditions he embraces?
