Either this guy is pandering to Dollar Bills.. (Right Wing Libertarian Dumb Asses) or he is truly out of his mind..
Wallmart would spontaneously" do a better job of reacting to disasters than FEMA..And I guess he means they would just open their doors to hoards of helpless people so that theycould take anything they need.. .

(450 posts)For years he has been spouting this capitalist, libertarian utopia nonsense so nobody should be surprised about it now. Billioniaires on yachts eating caver is good, grandma on Social Security and Medicare eating cat food bad, so she should be working as a greeter at walmart or washing cars instead of sucking off the taxpayer.
He is part of the 1% so he knows what he is talking about.

(20,581 posts)I emailed 3M corp. begging them to send masks to the people in NY - especially the workers. There should have been pallets of masks for everyone.
It was just an idea that I knew would not get very far.
Instead what we got was people in authority saying there was no danger. That is because people in authority see their next paycheck coming from corporations - screw the people.
