Key Quotes:

  • “When intentions don’t really matter, outcomes matter. So, there are a lot of people with a lot of really great intentions. They have no economic experience, and you end up putting ridiculous things in place to create barriers to economic benefits and wealth creation.” – Carol Roth
  • “Have that patience and that breathing room to say…You know, I understand what this small business owner is going through and I’m gonna support. So, I feel like that’s the kind of capitalist side.” – Carol Roth
  • “I’m a free speech advocate, and so, I feel like, as long as you’re not saying something that’s directly calling for violence or harm against somebody, or doing something illegal, you should be able to say whatever you want.” – Carol Roth
