The ideological obsession on the part of the administration and Senate to put protection of the stock market before protection of our people is what has put the United States so behind the curve in dealing with the coronavirus crisis.

In order to catch up, we must be willing to shatter that economic paradigm. It will be no good to save a business if the people forced to show up for work are spreading a potentially deadly disease. The only way to save our economy turns out to be by saving our people.

If this were a “foreign enemy” attacking us, I promise you there would be more than an $8.5 billion emergency expenditure. Right now we have a $738B Defense budget while the CDC budget is 1.5% of that. Do the math, see the priorities, yell like crazy. Politely, of course :)

“America’s crisis is a crisis of the soul.” This is what happens... When love of money exceeds love of people.

We are watching the decline of a super power. Vladimir is having a blast how well Donald is at failing.

It is quite horrifying to watch the slow motion train wreck that is the U.S. Health Care System in a public health emergency for the richest and most powerful country in the world you should hold your heads in shame..🤔

The ideological obsession of Washington, D.C., Republicans AND Democrats, to put protection of the stock market before protection of our people. They're all authoritarian and fiscally conservative.
