Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) says that America has practiced the free market system over the last 40 years and "that it doesn't work."

Johnson made the comments while speaking on the House floor Thursday against the Sunshine For Regulatory Decrees and Settlements Act. The bill aims at making the government give public notice when entering into legal negotiations that may result in new regulations. ...

Hank sure is bad at lying.

What’s a free market, and will it cause Guam to tip over?

[ilgipper]

Free markets frequently tip over like islands.

[Rusty0604]

Another nut. We have less and less of the free market over the last forty years. Insanity!

[A_Former_Democrat]

Go back to Guam, Hank

It’s in need of unbalanced individuals to balance itself

Hey dickweed! We have had a quasi Socialist economy for the past 30+ years that is what doesn’t work!

[Osage Orange]

There ought to be a law to take these incapable idiots out of office...

On October 5, 2014 The Washingtonian published their 15th biennial “Best & Worst of Congress” list. Rep. Hank Johnson was voted “Worst Speaker” and “Most Clueless” by congressional staffers. (from his wiki)

Considering all the rules and regulations by various and assorted government organizations over the last 50 years ... we haven’t had a true free market economy in ages.

[Bon mots]

Without any doubt, the very stupidest man alive.
He actuallyl thought that the island of Guam would flip over if we put too many soldiers on it and said so during public hearings.

Hank Johnson - Guam Will Flip Over | The very stupidest man alive

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

How would we know?

We haven’t had a truly free-market economy since our government voted in 1913 to allow a private cartel of international bankers to take control of our currency.

And we haven’t had any semblance of a free-market economy since our government, colluding with the Federal Reserve, began imposing an increasingly Draconian socialist and welfare (including corporate welfare) state upon us.

This idiot politician with the tennis-ball head needs to study a bit more before flapping his fat mouth. If anyone wondered whether he is a fool, he has removed all doubt.

the free markets have kept Guam afloat

[ExCTCitizen]

Hank, the people of Guam want you to sponsor a bill to prevent it from tipping over...also Iceland isn't frozen and Greenland isn't GREEN...so sponsor a bill to help them, too...

Pos, Hank might think that SUVs caused Iceland to be free of Ice...

[Blood of Tyrants]

Except that it isn’t a free market. Congress has given special preference to companies that bribe them.

[wyowolf]

Well he is from Georgia.

[X-spurt]

Them dems, got em some funny politicians.

[Eddie01]

Does Georgia know what their Representative said?

Somebody should mention it to them.
