Economy is f*cked.

It's your fault.

Covid 19 deaths are your fault.

The Essential American Idea

The Founders wrote the Constitution to ensure that no tyrant could rule the country - that any unlawful actions he might take are checked by the will of the people.

In America, sovereignty resides with the will of the People and not with God or with force. 

In practice, this means that we are ruled by laws. Our laws are created with the consent of the people expressed through their elected representatives. 

Today, several trends supported by our enemies are working to destroy the implementation of the will of the people and the rule of law.

In order for the will of the people to be effective, the people rely on facts about governmental actions. In order to learn the facts, we rely on a Free Press to tell us the truth. 

Now, some brainwashed politicians in service to Russian propaganda are systematically attacking the very ideas of a fact and of the Free Press. If many people believe that the Free Press is lying or creating 'fake news' then they will be unable to check any illegal actions taken by a tyrant. 

Alternate media reports opinions and rumors as facts and contributes to the erosion of belief in real, verified facts. Mainstream media makes sincere efforts to verify any fact before they publish it. We need the Mainstream Media to give us the facts. 

We hope that the alternate media attempts to erode trust in any facts will be ignored. That alternate media supports fear, racism, cynicism and mistrust of our institutions in service of Russian propaganda. 

Just Die - GOP Health Plan Working

I will try to frame this idea in terms that even a brainwashed GOP Representative, Senator or Judge can grasp.

My fellow American. When your wife goes to the grocery store, she is waited on by clerks and shelf stockers who do not have health insurance. These same folks must work even when they are sick because they have no savings and no paid sick days.

There is a very good chance that one of these clerks actually has non-symptomatic Covid 19 today.

There is an equally good chance that your wife has received the virus from her shopping trip. Perhaps she also has non-symptomatic Covid 19.

If she has it then you also have it.

And, since you are an old white man, there is a good chance that you will die alone with no family while on a ventilator in a hospital attended to by nurses and doctors with Covid 19.

That will continue until and unless we adopt a universal health care system so that all Americans can stay healthy and not infect us all through uninsured and ill people.
