Tuesday morning rant



It occurs to me that what we are going to see
As this thing progresses
Is the laying bare of the essence of the two schools of thinking currently in our system
You have folks reaching out to each other in whatever way they can
To connect
And support
and commiserate
And you have folks grabbing everything they can
For themselves
You have folks working to to save lives and putting humanity first
And you have folks working to save the economy and putting money first
I understand that the economy is key
And that if it crashes the ramifications will be beyond what we have known
But i also believe that putting humanity first be the way that we save the most lives
And that sacrificing human lives and safety for the sake of the economy is exposing some ask the skeksis they are... If we are writing a stimulus bill that favors corporations and wealthy we are simply perpetuating the situation that got is here... we need a stimulus bill that changes the model... that supports healthcare and middle class... its that simple...
