John Stossel - Free Market
As a libertarian, Stossel says that he believes in both personal freedom[15] and the free market. He frequently uses television airtime to advance these views and challenge viewers' distrust of free market capitalism and economic competition. He received an Honoris Causa Doctorate from Francisco Marroquin University, a libertarian university in Guatemala, in 2008. He told The Oregonian, on October 26, 1994:
“ I started out by viewing the marketplace as a cruel place, where you need intervention by government and lawyers to protect people. But after watching the regulators work, I have come to believe that markets are magical and the best protectors of the consumer. It is my job to explain the beauties of the free market.[16] ”
“ I'm a little embarrassed about how long it took me to see the folly of most government intervention. It was probably 15 years before I really woke up to the fact that almost everything government attempts to do, it makes worse.[17] ”
Stossel argues that personal greed creates an incentive to work and to innovate.[18] He has promoted school choice as a way to improve American schools, because he believes that when people are given a choice, they will choose the better schools for their children.[19] Referring to educational tests that rank American students lower than others he says:
“ The people who run the international tests told us, "the biggest predictor of student success is choice." Nations that "attach the money to the kids" and thereby allow parents to choose between different public and private schools have higher test scores. This should be no surprise; competition makes us better.[20] ”
He has also criticized government programs as inefficient, wasteful, and harmful.[21]
Stossel opposes corporate welfare and bailouts.[22]
He opposes legal prohibitions against pornography, marijuana, gambling, ticket scalping, prostitution, homosexual activity, and assisted suicide,[23] and believes most abortions should be legal.[24]
He opposes the war in Afghanistan and the war in Iraq.[5]
