THIS is the money quote, folks:

“company police were deployed to enforce a “no visitors” rule”

They cut themselves off from the outside, until they got the virus under control.

HELLO OBAMA/DEMOCRATS...
ARE YOU LISTENING???

The dreaded private sector hits a home run again.

No of course not. Big, oppressive, expensive, and ill-conceived “solutions” are their thing. Simple, cheap, and effective private approaches will not even be considered.

By all accounts, Firestone’s huge farm — apparently the largest contiguous rubber-tree farm on Earth — is a paradise compared with the destitution and havoc across the rest of war-torn Liberia. “In a country where children walk to school over muddy paths, high-school students here board big yellow school buses, winding over country roads,” the Journal reported. “Electricity flows from a private dam. Water towers, telephone poles, speed-limit signs and brick homes — all exceedingly rare in tropical Africa — stare out over mowed hillsides that resemble the landscape outside Nashville, Tenn., where Firestone’s head office is based.”

It's called the benefits of WESTERN CIVILIZATION, for any liberal pukes who might be listening in.

I have it on good authority that bombing of AA batteries in Vietnam was denied because they existed on American owned rubber plantations. What a difference forty years makes.

“need to get this information to the golf course where it might be seen...”

I think what would be most useful to everyone is for Firestone to publish a detailed “Current Best Approach” as used by Firestone to combat Ebola. Hopefully, legions will copy the procedure and we can put this bad actor in the outbox.

I sent this on to others. Thank-you so much. Free market capitalism is compassionate and smart. Firestone, I’m looking at you for my next set of white walls.

Let’s try and get this to the attention of the left wing stenographers.

I don’t know.. To the liberal mindset, an evil exploitive American company is holding employees and their families hostage... Or using their privileged state to forbid suffering natives access to treatment...

The black exploiters would say that the pets of the white man while those who reject economic slavery die for their freedom.

Sanity is becoming an endangered resource. Good on Firestone.
