Car Czar Rips Free Market and Praises Mao?
I heard the audio clips on Glenn Beck a while ago, and my cousin just sent me the YouTube. The “shocking” things are quite shocking indeed, but Obama car czar (and former assistant to the president of United Steel Workers) Ron Bloom says the stuff so nonchalantly that I would like to know the context. In the YouTube below I got you at least 30 or 45 seconds before the money quotes kick in, but I still can’t understand what the heck he is talking about.
Do I just need to accept the fact that Obama’s got plenty of people who (a) not only believe socialism is better than capitalism but (b) have traveled in such circles that they don’t even realize how shocking their views sound if stated plainly?
Or is this just a Glenn Beck hit piece, and Bloom is talking about a dream he had or something?
