Self-proclaimed member of the "1%" Peter Schiff of Euro Pacific Capital had it out with Occupy Wall Street demonstrators recently.
In the exchange in this video below, the demonstrator claims that Wal-Mart is forcing employees to work in sweatshop-like conditions, but not giving them enough hours or healthcare. Schiff in turn explains that the employees are not forced to stay and can quit at any time. "Walmart doesn't hold a gun to your head," he said.
The bigger picture is that this demonstrator wants government to control more of your life, while Schiff wants government to control less.
