Coronavirus and "economics for the rest of us"

When things go bad, they hit the poor hardest. (Shit rolls down hill.) As for Trump, he'll just declare "bankruptcy," like usual and roll on with his golden toilet. This is the story of America. This is how we get inequality. (How will we pay off our debts if we're all sick?!)

Trump's quote, "We'll see," is code for the law of averages. More than likely things won't go bad. However, why doe we hire people at the CDC or in fact as President if you're going to always rely on the law of averages. Good leaders take things seriously, call on the experts to prepare. If things don't go wrong, we'll be better prepared for the next thing. For Trump, he can't get along with anyone, he can't see past his own dick, and he thinks that only he can solve anything despite having no technical abilities whatsoever. Everything Trump touches dies. Maybe not tomorrow, but he's certainly killing our government's ability to do the job. Welcome to the rugged individualism of Koch libertarianism. You're on your own.

Wise Protestant-ism, would demand that we prepare for the future, work hard. All religions would demand we care for the poor. This shit we're watching is just selfish stupidity. Real religion would condemn this shit from top to bottom. Instead this un-American, irreligious shit show goes on.
