General Discussion

Of course the bastards who “govern” those states would not likely return the favor as they and a too large chunk of their people follow the NeoConfederate credo of “we hate you and the founding principle of the US Constitution” that the primary duty of the federal government is to promote the general welfare of all people, but, ironically gladly take the tax dollars of we who believe in that principle. That said, since we believe in that ethos we must adhere to it, even for the ungrateful, although I wager the majority of patients in those ICU wards would be grateful, and certainly the medical staff who are being subjected to inhuman stresses because of this human conflagration certainly would. The latter group who chose human service as their life’s calling certainly never anticipated they would be in the midst of such hell and certainly never conceived that their state governments would be their enemy in this struggle. They need all the help we can give them.

However, my caveat would be this, along with the aid comes a request that these Merchants Of Death who “govern” those states and are responsible for this catastrophe because they have knowingly endangered their citizens with their murdeous orders, exercise some of that sacred personal responsibility they prattle on about endlessly but never practice, and demand they rescind those orders at once. If not, and they likely wouldn’t, as it allows them to pander to the knuckle dragging fascists they service, then we federalize their national guards and put them into Public Health Service, deduct the cost of such aid from the money they would receive from the Covid relief money already appropriated to those states, or from future infrastructure money, and the Justice Department should intervene in every legal case on behalf of all local governments who are challenging the murderous mask prohibitions. So Abbott and DeathSantis pay some price for their wretched actions since they are chiefly responsible for this.
