Instead, [Trump] wants you to give to him — or else. This is reverse philanthropy: Instead of the richest helping the neediest, they pay tribute to the greediest.

5/There's also this myth that Americans overuse health care so it needs to cost more to discourage use. We don’t visit doctors more, stay in hospitals longer, or get more procedures than other countries. The real driver of high costs is corporate profit-seekers finding ways to bill for more services

The East Wing Desecrators
Given the extraordinary and unprecedented destruction of the entire East Wing, built in 1942 for the Office of the First Lady, it’s important to note who enabled this.
In this thread, I run through the companies and organizations involved and provide contact info.

This is over the top sadism. And sadism never exists in isolation – it's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD).

One nice thing about living in a liberal democracy rather than a police state is that you do not spend time feeling paranoid about whether the government is monitoring you, whether the people around you are agents of the state.
"Technologies purchased by ICE in recent weeks include spyware that can hack into smartphones remotely and cellphone location software that can enable the tracking of a phone’s movements without a court warrant..."
