It's a pretty accurate way to look at it, really. Nobody's perfect. Everybody has their own issues and struggles.

To follow up on this, one of the things that has hit Americans is the rise of now technology and systems that can guess about how much populations of people have on average. On its own harmless and useful information, but used by multiple agencies, particularly those with regards to apartment rentals, to be able to make shockingly precise estimates on exactly how much a community can be charged for a place to live so that you haven’t broken their ability to pay but have extracted every last cent you could.
Add to that what amounts to a lack of sufficient housing nationally that's not increasing to meet demand because the poor can't afford it and the rich buy it for rentals...

I also heard that the fund the government was going to use to pay anyone who couldn't work for the crisis ran out of money within the first week.

Then of course there were the small business loans that the big corporations took...
This whole thing is just a free for all for the big fish. Ordinary citizens are so desperate, tho, most of us don't even care.

Most forget, but Trump himself literally took money from a fund for helping small businesses during 9/11. One that he most assuredly didn't need when he was a private citizen.
And Trump University, and his Foundation. It's all public knowledge, but far too many STILL think he will protect them and that their hated enemies will be expunged. Deer in headlights when you try to explain this to them why supporting him was a lost cause from the jump. He has done literally everything they say they can't stand.
It's not deer in headlights. That implies fear, confusion, and panic. What I've seen out of his supporters is either incredulity and denial claiming that it's all faked by the media, the deep state, etc... or they just don't care, believing he'll support them anyway because it's in his best interest to keep them happy. Or worse, they view his positions and misdeeds as acceptable because his other actions support their ideological goals.
Deer in headlights isn't what I see.

You reap what you sow. Then again, it is not fair to say this to those who vote against him though, and it is cruel to say just bear with it in times of crisis.
There's a saying about Democracy; you don't always get what you want, but you do get what you deserve.
One could argue that the current situation is the karma of far too many years of amoral, unethical, or just simply ignorant and naive decision making and behavior. At least if you're of the opinion that punishing the child for their parents' crimes is a legitimate form of justice. Otherwise, it's just desserts for some, sux 2 be u for others. Especially since the people who are going to bear the brunt of this disaster's long-term effects upon living through it are the ones who had the least amount of power to prevent or prepare for it.
Also, looks like Covid-19 can cause odd blood clotting and sudden strokes in young people, even in mild and asymptomatic cases. Well shit.

And people are stuck with either Trump or Bidan. Personally, both are equally disastrous.
One just seems less-so than the other, to me. I am not especially pleased with this outlook. B[

XD yup. I don't consider myself an especially good Christian. However, there's more than one reason I refuse to vote for the guy. Unless you're inclined to Double Determination, ye olde # of the beast has to be something you choose, not something that can be forced on, and its status as the # of a man is only relevant if the alternative isn't a man.
Maybe I should say wasn't, rather than isn't.
Ofc, that doesn't cover global populations, but hey, "in the hand or on the head," could quite easily refer to ideological support and approval as well as material support and a vote.

Heyy Darth Jar Jar was GoaT, dont group him with that
We've had to endure much, you and I, but within the week there will be old men running the world
OLD MEN ARE THE FUTURE
A new CBS poll shows that a good 70% of respondents are more interested in staying shut down and saving lives vs restarting the economy.
again, I’m pleasantly surprised to see how many people are willing to take the long view with regards to dollars vs lives in this. Apparently even hyper partisanship can’t completely overcome the survival instinct
