Republicans don't care if you are in need, or if you live or die

It's obvious that the entire Republican Party doesn't give a rat's ass how many people die from Covid-19. And they aren't about to provide any financial relief of any kind, to anyone who has lost their job due to the virus. They're about to walk away from a new plan that Nancy Pelosi has put on the table, and go home to continue their election campaigns.

It's beyond my comprehension how anyone can cast votes for politicians who are doing everything possible to destroy their own well being and their very lives. I mean, really, just how uninformed, or outright stupid can these voters be?

If someone whacked you with a two by four, you'd understand that you were under attack. Yet Republican voters are backing people who are trying to take away their medical coverage (Obamacare). And, if they can get a large enough majority, nibble away at Social Security and Medicare until both are dead and gone.

You may be thinking that these voters deserve whatever they get. But as long as Republicans control the levers of power, we are all getting fucked.

Our very survival as a country depends on an enormous blue tidal wave November 3rd. Get out and vote, even if you have to crawl to the poll.

We don't have a healthcare system in America, we have a for-profit healthcare industry.
