Glad to see you on Fox. I want to thank you for all you do for education. I just ordered more of you DVD's We often use the DVD's to supplement academic subjects and for social skills. Once again. Thank you.

I used to watch 20/20,until I saw you talk about our Canadian health care system.I could not believe the absolute trash on the program.Our health care is doing fine here in Canada.We have minor problems of course,& no one will go bankrupt paying hospital bills.We have a triage system that prioritizes the more serious cases,& though there may be cases of waiting for minor problems,everyone sees a doctor,& is treated for whatever their sickness.Your country can spend millions on war,but not health

I saw you with bill oreilly and appreciate you position. Remember this war on drugs is simply an extension of prohibition. During prohibition more people drank than ever before, the beneficiaries were gangsters lawyers and cops. roaring twenties indited and the thirties were the judgements. The drug cartels were created by a stroke of a pen and can be destroyed by one. Its the illegality that keeps the prices high and under the table. Children should not be subject to created lawlessness.

Hi John, Add energy subsidies to the list of government failures like the US postal service, Social Security, Fannie Mae, The War on Poverty $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor", Medicare and Medicaid, Freddie Mac, Cash for clunkers, With this failure rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove down our throats are failing, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system?. 20% of our entire economy?

The interesting point I see is that Houston, TX, pays some of the highest rates in the country,

Hi John! So glad to have you back. This was great but why not run specials like you did at ABC on Fox? When will Fox start going head to head against the big three at 5:30 (central) on Basic cable? Your fact stories against their "look over there stories not over here stories". Great reporting and I look forward to much more.

And all a energy consuming homeowner can get for buying a better "toaster" to green their individual enviroment is $1500.00 lifetime energy star tax credit. I wonder who's energy use has more impact - the public or private business?
Dave Goodyear
Looking forward to seeing john stossel reports. Great move John and fox!

Gee, in California our elected officials are so worried about energy usage that they are threatening to ban large plasma or LCD televisions for using to much energy. Maybe we can send them to Texas!
Paul McManus
John, I'm excited to see that you are on Fox now.

I just love it. I run a printing plant in calif we play games to save electricity on randomly chosen days of the week in the summer. If you screw up it will cost you thousands of dollars. I play that game every summer.

John - prior to leaving your last employer, you were reportedly going to potentially cover a "who regulates the regulator" type of story on the FDA. Will you be visiting this subject on Fox now?

John -Welcome to Fox. Always enjoyed your perspective on ABC. Wind farms are a good idea IF they can operate at or near a profit. If not,the tax credits are welfare for the investors. There is plenty of natural gas and coal to fuel our needs. Why don't we start there?

"Or as Texas Tech economist Michael Giberson put it: "You could... build a giant toaster in West Texas and be paid by generators to operate it."" thats 1 big piece of toast!!! course we can use white bread, or obama will think we are racists...hahahaha

I've been seeing those infernal things sprouting up along I-10 near Fort Stockton for a decade now. I never doubted that they were a lucrative boondoggle for someone, probably T Boone Pickens.
