White House Science Czar Says He’d Use ‘Free Market’ to ‘De-Develop the United States’
Breitbart.tv ^ | 9/16/2010 | Breitbart

Posted on 09/16/2010 3:26:31 PM PDT by wheresmyusa

From CNS News: In a video interview this week, White House Office of Science and Technology Director John P. Holdren told CNSNews.com that he would use the “free market economy” to implement the “massive campaign” he advocated along with Population Bomb author Paul Ehrlich to “de-develop the United States.”

In his role as President Barack Obama’s top science and technology adviser, Holdren deals with issues ranging from global warming to health care.

“A massive campaign must be launched to restore a high-quality environment in North America and to de-develop the United States,” Holdren wrote along with Paul and Anne H. Ehrlich in the “recommendations” concluding their 1973 book Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions.

Dems sure do love creating unemployment to expand the ever increasing underclass of people who are totally dependent on the government.

Holdren’s an insane communist eco-wacko radical. What’s new? He shouldn’t be within 1000 miles of a lever of power.

The good news here is that nobody in the White House knows anything about free markets.

How can anything centrally planned be using the "free market"?

If there was a centrally planned effort to increase productivity and competitiveness it definitely would not be a free market endeavor.

Oh wait a minute. They've tried that before and it only ended up being a way to funnel money from taxpayers to lobbyists.

Use the FREE MARKET to push for a GOVERNMENT rationing plan?

Un-hunh.

Apparently, this dingbat who has never worked in the private sector doesn’t get, the PRIVATE sector.
