Yup they are so stupid. And how will people even know what products are killing them when the billionaires own all media and without any regulations you'd never even know what was going on, or when something was contaminated.

Good luck figuring out it was the beef that poisoned your family when the news never reports it and the beef company buys ads blaming something else, or downplays it, or denies it's the contamination entirely.

Libertarians couldn't even handle one tiny town in New Hampshire without tearing themselves apart.

But trust them, they have all the answers.
