Ben Shapiro made this YouTube video, it's his conservative response to the #SOTU. It seems to be getting a positive reception on YouTube and Twitter.

So why is this? It certainly isn't going to go down as a great oratory. What it is, is an 8 minute memo on the failures that are making the the middle class angry. The middle class in America is the most powerful, wealthy, wealth generating, hard working, follow the rules group of people the world has ever seen. Does ANY other country in the WORLD have as many books on how to "do things right" as America? The middle class is so concerned about doing things right, that we are nerdy about being nerdy --this ties into something else I've said, that no one in the world is as nerdy as Americans-- and we have had it. After years and years of electing people who are "experts", who think that only they can fix things, who think that we are incapable of governing ourselves, we realize that they are just bungling things. After all, these politicians we've been depending on to protect our freedom are the most educated political class in history. They have instant access to more information, more history, and more evidence than ever before in civilization. Yet they are royally screwing it all up. We have TRILLIONS in debt, that is the only argument there needs to be even though plenty more exist. TRILLIONS!!! There is no money left, there are no more entitlements needed, this is threat-con delta. The only reason people aren't in the streets creating uproar is because TRILLIONS doesn't even register as realistic. Plus, our so called "experts" are acting like it is no big deal, and asking for even more money. Ben Shapiro makes all these points and more, and does it on the middle class's media medium, YouTube.
