Vince Vaughn Tells Adam Carolla: I Am a Ron Paul Conservative

VAUGHN: "I think I'm more of -- I  really believe like Ron Paul, and I think that what you come, as you get older, is you just get less trust in the government running anything. And that you start to realize when you really go back and you look at the Constitution and the principles of liberty, the real purpose of government is to protect the individual’s right to sort of think, and pursue what they have interest in. And that when you start drawing the lines, of saying, well as a society, we think this is inappropriate, we’re going to pass laws to protect them from themselves, or take things away to protect themselves or move money from here to there, that you realize that you'll wake up with corruption, and without the unintended consequences you’ll wake up with a lot of created problems that didn’t exist prior.”
CAROLLA: "Has this caused any friction for you, and some of your Hollywood friends?"
VAUGHN: "You know, I think most people, as they've gotten to know me and talk to me about stuff, I think there can be sort of a biased against people who don't sort of agree with what's popular. But I think if you talk to people, you know, sort of how you present it over time, I think people kind of understand where I stand, and I can disagree with people, and not have it be the forefront of all conversations. But I think as time goes on, you know, it starts to get a little harder to argue some of the principles that you start to see, you know, the state of some of these conditions, and what's happening, I think people start loosing faith. I think the point of view is to say that can you elect officials to use force in certain areas to make things go great, and I think that starts to become a harder thing to reference where that's working."
