More quotes by John Stossel
Asking someone in the media about liberal bias is like asking a fish about water. 'Huh, what are you talking about? Where is it?'
John Stossel
I never wanted to be an anchor for 25 years, and suddenly I wanted to be one.
John Stossel
Government has no money of its own. All it does is take resources from one group and given them to another.
John Stossel
Take away the government's monopoly, and private groups will do it better.
John Stossel
Where I live in Manhattan and where I work at ABC, people say conservative the way people say child molester.
John Stossel
Wealthier is healthier.
John Stossel
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.

Government has no wealth of its own. Before it gives anything to anyone, it must take from those who produced it.
John Stossel
Isn't allowing people a choice what America is all about?
John Stossel
Patrick Henry did not say, 'Give me absolutely safety or give me death.' America is supposed to be about freedom.
John Stossel
Fraud will always exist. Enforcement of anti-fraud laws is a useful deterrent, but in the end there's no substitute for investor vigilance. Government regulations provide a false sense of security - and that's worth less than no sense of security at all.
John Stossel
Prosperity comes from leaving people free in a legal system that respects their persons and property so they can pursue their dreams while taking responsibility for their actions.
John Stossel
What private property does is connect effort to reward, creating an incentive for people to produce for more. Then, if there's a free market, people will trade their surpluses to others for the things they lack. Mutual exchange for mutual benefit makes the community richer.
John Stossel
'Live and let life' used to be a noble approach to life. Now you're considered compassionate if you demand that government impose your preferences on others.
John Stossel
A system that rewards politicians skilled at campaigning - which is the art of creating an illusion - and that puts hundreds of billions of coerced taxpayer dollars at the disposal of the winners will tend to attract men and women with a comparative advantage in manipulation.
John Stossel
The politicians should not tell the people to shut up.
John Stossel
Private businesses ought to get to discriminate.
