Quote of the Week: Tone Deaf, Tone Blind, Tone Dumb


"If they stay closed for another month, month and a half, you're gonna have body bags of businesses that never recover."  Stephen Moore, co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity and member of the president's council to reopen the country  (May 4, 2020)


Sometimes tone deaf doesn't quite cover it. On a day when the COVID-19 death toll hit 70,000, and reports of FEMA having ordered 100,000 body bags echoed through the news, Stephen Moore tried to muster up sympathy for business with the above comment.
