No exaggeration, no ad-hominem, no attempt to provoke a reaction; your posts truly read like those of a national-socialist who wants the state to assume dictatorial power over the economy and crush its perceived enemies.

If you aren't a Nazi or don't aspire to be one, I'd suggest asking yourself some hard personal questions about how you view the world. Good day, sir. oh please, drama llama over here.

We just blew two trillion on fucking bankers; a billion dollars will buy a shit-load of overpriced N95 masks if that's actually what is needed.

Quote HistoryQuoted: So a company that makes and distributes a necessary product world wide is now being told that they can only sell to the United States? If I was the CEO of 3M, I would be putting the wheels in motion to up my manufacturing overseas. See how that works??? Hysterics much? No they are not told that "they can only sell to the US". So far they are only told that they cannot ignore orders already placed by US governmental entities and instead sell those products to the highest bidder and leave their US customers empty handed. If they still have capacity left over they can sell to whomever they want. But US companies must fill the US orders first, especially ones that were placed a month ago. They cannot bump them down the list. Not difficult to understand. AMERICA FIRST! What they did was fraud at best and damn close to treason in a time of national emergency. Some people here apparently consider scumbag moves like that "liberty" that should be protected. Pretty disgusting thinking to be honest. Has fuckall to do with liberty. Business tactics like this would get anyone kicked out of the EE in the blink of an eye. Selling a gun, here's the firm order, money incoming. Seller talks to someone else behind the scenes, gets a better offer, ships gun to shadow buyer. Original buyer is told to go fornicate themselves. LIBERTYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote HistoryQuoted: 3M makes the gas mask filters that save your soldiers' lives They support America plenty. They aren't threatening to take their ball & go home like a lot of the Bolsheviks suddenly popping up all over the place here. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: 3M needs their shit pushed in. Getting tired of these "American companies" not wanting to support USA. 3M makes the gas mask filters that save your soldiers' lives They support America plenty. They aren't threatening to take their ball & go home like a lot of the Bolsheviks suddenly popping up all over the place here. You seem chronically uninformed. Quoted: Quoted: Yup! "Orangeman fucked us by not doing enough." The sample people: "Leave 3M ALONE! Let the masks we should be getting, fly out of the county!" Private companies don’t owe you anything. They’re not required to honor contracts and fulfill the terms and commitments of said agreement? Fuck me I’ve been doing it wrong the whole time! |

Seems like a lot of people are confusing patriotism with capitalism. And a lot of Anarcho capitalists chiming in screaming about muh freedom.

I honestly dont care. 3M can do whatever it wants. It's not their fault that, at every level, very few medical facilities were prepared for any sort of high demand.
Let those commies die from COVID. It's time they learned their lesson about so many things. |
