Who the hell is Bill Ackman and who made him a virus expert?

[MarathonMike]

Ackman is a billionaire stock market speculator but lately CNBC and others are giving him a platform to dictate to President Trump about a nationwide shutdown for 30 days. WTF? So now we are listening to a speculator who is ready to capitalize on other people's financial misery? The Media is being totally irresponsible giving this guy air time. He clearly has a vested interest in generating more mayhem.

And when the media does this they always identify the oracle as "billionaire". It really really impresses them.

Trump can't shut down the US for 30 days. The president doesn't have that authority, nor does Congress.

I dunno. When did not having authority ever stop them from doing what they want? The electorate doesn't really care anymore.

Capitalist, another billionaire capitalist. No, capital is interested in ever more redistribution of societal wealth. You media machine is owned by half a dozen multinational corporations, of course they give capital air time. That's why the media was monopolized once Clinton deregulated the FCC, to do just that. Our "way of life" has caught up with us again. Do you see your capitalists running back to socialism again? Every time they get into trouble.

If we can allow war criminals to go free, if we can allow known pedophiles involved in child sex trafficking to rule over us, if we can allow schools to become live target shooting galleries, if we can allow widespread contamination in the public water supply, if we can allow endless, bogus, illegal, unconstitutional wars in our name and on our dime, if we can allow "the law" to murder non-threatening unarmed citizens in the street, if we can allow tens of thousands dying per year due to lack of healthcare coverage, if we can allow 22 vet suicides per day, if we can allow for profit internment/concentration camps, if we can allow corruption engaged in openly as it is cheered by the public, it would appear the American electorate checked out long ago and lacks the nads to stand up to concentrated capital, and hence power.

So I'm inclined to agree.

This media driven panic shopping frenzy has the sheeple expecting that very move. Their language has been of quarantining people from the start. Kill the economy and blame, blame , blame Trump.

And if you are wondering who he is...here is a simple bio from Wikipedia.

"Ackman was raised in Chappaqua, New York, the son of Ronnie I. (née Posner) and Lawrence David Ackman, the chairman of a New York real estate financing firm, Ackman-Ziff Real Estate Group.[3][4] He is Jewish.[5][6][7]"

No idea. Still trying to figure out why capitalists outsource jobs and production/manufacturing capability/capacity to communists and then fecklessly attempt to claim they're anti-commie capitalists.

Kind of a lame question, as to why would a stock market Billionaire get a willing airing of his views and inputs on a Cable News Business Channel. Who were you looking hear from by tuning into CNBC, Dwight Yokum or that little Geta eco-chick that pissed off the right wing?

She doesn't bug me, cause I haven't actually read anything she said, just the right's reaction to here, knowing they don't like environmental issues, even if they started and championed the environmental movement. I am old enough that I still think children should be seen and not heard to a great extent.

Now Marketwatch is in on the act. That "B" word really makes the left drop to their knees and they think thats the way the rest of us think as well. Ackman has upped his game by the way..he is now saying that America will "end as we know it" if we dont follow his instructions.
