Kane gets political

Glenn Jacobs, the WWE wrestler better known as Kane, was interviewed in the Baltimore Sun recently and aside from his wrestling career, which he senses is winding down these days, he did air some interesting political views. Jacobs is a member of the Libertarian Party and was asked by the Sun reporter whether he ever envisions America electing a Libertarian, independent or third-party president.

Here’s his response:

Certainly I think the way things are going with the economy, and this is not a rip on any particular party because they’re both at fault, but with the centralization of the economy, central planning, that doesn’t work. We saw that everywhere it’s been tried. As things unfold I think people will be looking for answers, and I think the Libertarians, certainly the people that understand real economics – Austrian economics – they have those answers. So we’ll see what happens. I think we do live in very interesting times.

Not bad for a fellow who’s spent most of his adult life beating up on other large fellows inside metal buildings. The pro wrestler also writes a political blog called “The Adventures of Citizen X.”
