TV host and author Mike Rowe said on “Fox & Friends” on Monday that the coronavirus outbreak “is a chance, unlike anything I’ve ever seen, for corporate America to step up and do what the government simply can’t do.”
Rowe made the comments after several companies, including General Motors and two partners, have combined their efforts to build more ventilation systems for hospitals during the novel coronavirus pandemic, the auto company announced Friday.
On Monday, Rowe noted that coronavirus is going to show “what capitalism is really all about.”
“We have these big conversations about the direction the country is headed and what direction the country ought to be headed,” he said.
He then explained why he thinks the current situation is a “chance for corporate America to step up and do what the government simply can't do.”
“Obviously government has a primary role in this, but I don't think they can do it alone and I'm actually really heartened,” he said, referencing several companies including 3M, which produces respirator masks for consumers, and General Motors, which have stepped up efforts to help during the coronavirus crisis.
3M has doubled its production of N95 respirator masks since the coronavirus outbreak to a rate of nearly 100 million a month, Street Insider reported.
Rowe also referenced the smaller companies “who have completely retooled and retrofitted.”
“I'm looking at these distilleries who are now making hand sanitizer,” he said. “It's big and it's small, it's micro, it's macro, it's everybody doing what they can, in a way that I think could ultimately make about the most compelling case for capitalism that we've seen in our lifetime.”

Amen, let God arise and the enemies be scattered!!! Our corporations have many very capable and able innovators who can help change the course of history going on right now.
Those of us called to PRAY, do so, and those called to invent and change production in the companies they work at do so….Our God is a BIG God that knows our needs….Additionally from Psm 23 – He sets a table before us in the presence of our enemies…..Thank you
Father, we praise You that You are God. Your ways are right and good. No amount of media spin can change the truth of what is right. You have created people in Your image. You have created them to work and not rely on the government. You have designed people to make unique contributions to help solve problems. May the American people and the world see and understand what is happening. May Your name be glorified. May You take what Satan means for evil and turn it for good. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Praise you Father for inspiring private companies to work on behalf of the nation. Thank you that you are hearing our prayers and giving us answers. As we watch you work in answer to our pleas, may we acknowledge you and give you praise.
