Silicon Valley Bank is the latest example of crony capitalism running wild.
It makes my blood boil.
The recent collapse of SVB has once again exposed the dangers of big government and the risks associated with government intervention in our economy. Our country cannot afford to have politicians in power who believe in reckless spending and uncontrolled government intervention in our financial markets.
This is exactly why we need to support conservative principles and candidates who believe in limited government and fiscal responsibility.
It’s time we put an end to the reckless spending and wasteful government programs that have caused so much harm to our country. We need leaders who will fight for free markets and individual freedoms, not crony capitalism and bureaucrats who think they know better than the American people.
I would be glad if the rest of the Republican Presidential contenders jump on the train and speak truth. It’s telling that they have been quiet. I’ll speak from firsthand observation: many Republicans are afraid of Silicon Valley’s donor class and behave accordingly. But not me.
Together, we can fight against the forces of big government and protect the economic freedom that has made our country great.
Thanks,
Vivek Ramaswamy
P. S. The collapse of SVB is a wake-up call for all of us. It’s time we take action and support candidates who will fight for the principles that put this country into motion 250 years ago. Please help me build this movement by chipping in $1 or more!
Vivek is an American entrepreneur, political and cultural thought leader, and New York Times bestselling author of Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America’s Social Justice Scam, along with his second book, Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence.
He has been a prominent and outspoken critic against ESG, discriminatory practices under the guise of critical race theory, and of what he calls “government-tech censorship,” where the government colludes with big tech to do through the backdoor what it couldn’t do through the front door under the Constitution.
Vivek is a first-generation American. Growing up in the Cincinnati area, he often recounts the sage advice he received from his father that “If you’re going to stand out, then you might as well be outstanding.” This advice set the course for his life: an accomplished pianist, a nationally ranked tennis player, and the valedictorian of his Jesuit high school. He went on to graduate summa cum laude in Biology from Harvard in 2007 and received his J.D. degree from Yale Law School in 2013, worked at a hedge fund, then started a pharmaceutical company, Roivant Sciences, where his team developed five drugs that went on to become FDA-approved.
In 2022, he founded Strive Asset Management, an Ohio-based firm, that takes direct aim at asset managers like BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard and others for their fiduciary breach of duty to maximize the wealth of their clients for Wokeism. Strive’s mission is to restore the voices of everyday citizens in the American economy by leading companies to focus on excellence over politics.
