Seriously John Stossel you don’t expect us to take you seriously..

I thought this was an Onion Parody...Seriously..

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.. .

You heard it “Spontaneously" ... “Walmart would spontaneously save us all in a disaster” Save us all.. FEMA is unnecessary in his opinion..

Now I know most of you despise John Stossel as much as I do...But can you freaking believe this?

this, of course, by Walmart

No I cant prove it, but I am also not a moron.

If not paid directly it is just his way of making sure the right people know where he stands

which is FIRMLY against human beings.

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.

He sued Dr D and then later railed on people who file such lawsuits.

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.
