And I had another thought, something I couldn’t have taken seriously a few years ago, yet now seems like a reasonable question. We know the majority of people who are dying of COVID are over 65. How much is that going to save on “entitlements” that the rethugs are always trying to cut? SS, Medicare, various pensions? Remember rethugs openly saying old people should be willing to die for the “economy”.

3. It is even more disgusting how they mislead their followers. Don't wear masks, this is not serious,

its a hoax. But when it comes to their health, they have access to care that their followers will never have if they get Covid. They tell them don't pay attention to the scientists. The second they get sick, they run to the scientists. None of them are calling Scott Atlas, the demon sperm lady or BS treatments. They are running to what SCIENCE TELLS THEM WORKS.

Its sad, maddening and scary that we have so many in America that cannot see through this. They are not rejecting science when THEY NEED IT. Why pray tell, do you think they want you to reject it? Giuliani actually said he got special treatment because
"he's a celebrity". That should enrage his followers. He's not even a resident of the state he got the treatment. They only had a limited quantity of it. He took one that could have went to a State resident that was in dire need of it. It is disgusting.

.... did not distance socially,... had ballroom parties and wine & cheese get togethers,... overloaded medical services systems,... then had the audacity to jump to the head of the line for ICU beds to receive rare and limited antibody medications which miraculously cured them in two to three days. But few people could get this special life sustaining treatment.
