John Stossel on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion training – “It’s a minefield now.”
From StosselTV
All big companies now require “DEI” training for employees, but studies say that often BACKFIRES. One study looked at 800 companies, and found that after companies did trainings, they actually came to have FEWER black managers. How is that possible?
Erec Smith, a former DEI trainer, now a Professor of Rhetoric at York College, tells me: “It seems to be making people less likely to interact with people who are unlike them … because it’s like a minefield now.”
He explains that the trainings can make people so afraid of saying something wrong, that people just avoid each other. “If you ask somebody what they do for a living, somehow that’s racist, right? If you learn that, then why would you take a chance?”
That’s the just the tip of the iceberg, regarding DEI’s problems. Watch this video for more strange ideas that come from it, like “try to be less white” and the idea that some kids don’t need to learn standard English.

Socialists say they care about the environment. The real world shows that capitalism works better.
Saving the planet, I’m told, requires socialism! Greed “is literally destroying our planet,” says Sen. Bernie Senders. We need “an environment that provides for all people, not just the privileged few!” says Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Sanders and AOC, as usual, have it backwards. Socialist governments have “the worst environmental record on the planet,” says Tom Palmer, Executive Vice President of the Atlas Network. Here is evidence.

The Dangers of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) – John Stossel with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis
On the same day that this add about Digital Currency from the Bank of Canada popped up on my facebook feed..
I see that 19 time Emmy Award winning journalist John Stossel has posted a short discussion with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on the implementation of Central Bank Digital Currency in the United States.
Should you be concerned? Depends how much you like living under the thumb of whatever the government dictates.
From Stossel TV
The federal government and the media are excited about something new: a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). “I think it would be a total disaster,” Gov. Ron DeSantis tells me.
A CBDC would be a cryptocurrency, one controlled by the federal government. The Biden administration says a CBDC would “protect consumers, investors…and the environment.”
DeSantis tells me, “Sometimes government does things that may appear to be benevolent but really are kind of like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. This is a wolf coming as a wolf.” DeSantis says the government will use digital money to spy on us and control our behavior. “’You’re filling up too much [with gas]. Wait a minute–Climate change… You can’t be doing that! …You bought another firearm? No, no, no.'”
He’s is so upset about this new plan, he just persuaded Florida’s legislature to ban the CBDC’s use in Florida.
