Did you notice?

Everything conservatives have been saying since the Reagan revolution has been proved false.

“We can’t afford to do that”

They’ve said for decades now.

About anything that helps working people.

Then in the blink of an eye

we create 2 trillion dollars out of nothing.

Let me tell ya, two trillion?

 Gonna be a drop in the bucket before this thing is over.

Student loan deferments, Suspension of evections, mortage defaults etc

If we can suspend them during a time of crisis?

We can waive them all together.

In fact?

 We had better waive them all together and soon.

Small Government

What they were really saying but you didn’t know it was:

Lets not have enough enforcement so me and my cronies can do as we please.

And we’ll make plenty of regulations and red tape so its hard as hell to compete against established corporations.

Lets have that small government Grover Norquist and his likes want, 

test, develop and administer a vaccine etc to 327 million.

Lets see how that goes for a second.

More on that in a different post later.

Grover Norquist

Living wages, affordable healthcare, paid time off,

And affordable childcare are leftist, communist ideas that can’t work here.

Well?

Looks like something else isn’t working here if you ask me.

I love this man:

Rev. Dr. William J Barber II

“This virus is teaching us that from now on, living wages, guaranteed health care for all, unemployment and labor rights are not far left issues, but issues of right vs wrong and life vs death."

If:

“Living wages…guaranteed health care for all…and labor rights”

Doesn’t fit your Christian Theology?

Then your theology is incorrect.

Period.

“The country will be opened up and raring to go by Easter.”

So said the party of right to life.

"So if, you know, we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better, just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work, some of them go to work, but they get better," 

So?

This is your political party that has preached about the sanctity of life for decades now?
Nice.

They wanted you to work like surfs for your feudal overlords risking your life for their stock portfolios.

Here is their concern for the sanctity of life fully displayed for everyone:

Former Wells Fargo CEO Richard Kovacevich:

We’ll gradually bring those people back and see what happens. Some of them will get sick, some may even die, I don’t know. Do you want to suffer more economically or take some risk that you’ll get flu-like symptoms and a flu-like experience? Do you want to take an economic risk or a health risk? You get to choose.

You remember that company right?
Wells Fargo?
The ones that set up all the phony accounts and charged people fees and fines for accounts they never opened?
Yeah, well their former CEO says get back to work, go die surfs.

 Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick:

"Let's get back to work. Let's get back to living. Let's be smart about it," Patrick said. "And those of us who are 70 plus, we'll take care of ourselves. But don't sacrifice the country."

It was a sham all along.
Right to life my ass.
More like false theology created to serve a political expediency.
Why else do you think its falling at the seems right now?
Right to life till you and your cronies take a hit on your stock portfolio.

I’ve said it all along.

You’ve been duped.

Take the wool out from over your eyes.

They couldn’t care less about the rights of the unborn.

They don’t even care if the living live or die,
just go work till ya die so my stocks don’t take a hit.

Sickening.
Corporate fascist fucks.

“Let the free market decide”

It aint free.

It’s rigged AF.

But yeah, lets do that right now

Let all those people who worship the free market die there too.

Funny how none of these free market libertarians
rose to the occasion to stand firm in their beliefs.

Okay Masse from KY did but he was about the only exception.

Airline bailouts.

What a waste.

What are we gonna do?

Bail them out month after month?

Some industries just don’t have the ripple effects downstream
in the economy to justify their continued tax payer support.

Not only that but it is morally objectionableas well.

Here is why I say fuck your free market.

The airlines industry over the last decade?

 Put 96?

98?

Percent of its profits into dividend pay outs and stock buy backs.

Then as soon as they hit a speedbump?

They go run to big daddy federal government for a handout.

Oh but you poor surfs, pull yourselves up from your boot straps.

Don’t you dare ask for anything.

It’s not a free market if industries are always playing with house money.

Ask yourself:

You gonna get on a plane in three months?

Six?

12?

18?

When you gonna wanna go spend a night in a hotel/motel?

Go on a vacation?

Soon?
When will anyone be able to afford
a hotel, cruise, vacation, air travel etc?

There are going to be industries that just aren’t gonna make it.

Airlines, casinos and hotels/motels are probably going to be among them.

Let them go.

The money used to prop them up for a short time would have been better administered to the SNAP (Food stamps) program.

(It wasn’t)

People are going to need food,
before they need airlines, hotels and casinos.

Casino bailouts.

How in the world does a casino need a bailout?

Wondering if this is from God.

Bailing out casinos.

It speaks for itself.

Bailing out cruise lines.

Were digging our grave deeper.

Now is the time,
people need to be shouting about let the free market run it’s course.

Lots of industries should  be forced into bankruptcy.

(The ones without long ripple effects into the economy.)

Let them merge and consolidate as things hopefully improve.

Think about it.

The world really needs another cruise ship?

Low budget Airline?
Hotel?

Not for a while we don’t.

We can’t afford to pay people $15 an hour

Yeah we can.

We always could have.

The bankers and the billionaires and conservative echo chamber just convinced you we couldn’t that’s all.

How much is that guy stocking groceries on the shelf worth to you now?

Or the gas station clerk?
Or the hardware store staff?
Or the restaurant employees who are still making your families food for take out?

How much are they worth to you now?

(You go buddy, I love you,

you’re  providing a valuable service
in this time of need, stay safe.)

Spending.

Loan deferments/forgiveness.

Small government.

Living wages.

Healthcare.

Childcare.

Right to life.

Free markets.

Everything you thought you knew
Was wrong…

It doesn’t match up well with Christian Theology.

And if believing in those things was a part of your Christian theology?

Well…

You can see where it led.

I’m sure I missed some

But basically every conservative argument you’ve heard

for the last 40+ years has just been repudiated.

It’s almost like…
It was kinda the point.
Seems like.

I love you honey.
