John Stossel’s Take
Commentary from Co-Anchor of ABC News’ “20/20”
$2.7 Billion for Captain Morgan?
09/02/2009 12:52 PM
*** begin quote ***
40-70 jobs for the bargain price of nearly $3 billion?
*** and ***
Turns out Diageo currently makes rum in Puerto Rico, so jobs there will be lost if the company relocates to the Virgin Islands.
“It’s insulting that the money we give is essentially paying for a foreign corporation to move from one U.S. location to another, while cutting jobs”
*** end quote ***
You can’t make this stuff up. The gooferment should just not take our money in the first place. It delivers NOTHING!
Seriously, the guys at Free Talk Live posed the challenge: “Name one government program that works? Bearing in mind that overpaying is not being a success.” I’ve never heard anyone answer that. Can you?
And, you want them to have MORE programs? AND EVEN something as important as Health Care, Health Insurance, or whatever they are calling it today!
Sheeple.
