Well duh! I've been feeling that Trump is well nigh inevitable precisely because everyone is going to accept him as better than the alternative, which is precisely what the big $ boys wanted. Liberals foolishly believed the rich were loyal to their ideals, but they're really only loyal to $, so they rode liberalism to their stop & now they'll get off. If you wanted a RIGHT wing dictatorship, Biden was the only way to get there. Now, the Right can prosecute & imprison anyone they like - thanks D's for setting that precedent by prosecuting a president! All those court opinions limiting immunity etc will come in handy! All the power used to suppress anti vaxx etc will now be used to suppress the Left, and so on. When you're waiting in line at the concentration camp, remember that YOU voted to create these powers! Ugh. I hated Bush because he wasn't fairly elected & I hate Biden because he wasn't fairly elected, but YOU idiots thought it was just fine as long as YOUR side won. Ugh. You fight for principles, not people or parties. It was wrong to close churches over COVID & it'll be wrong to close universities over whatever they choose to close them over. The government should NOT be subsidizing either side; it should NOT be suppressing either side; it should NOT be running "public" health whatever that BS is, and it should NOT be invading every country on earth trying to stop WW3 by fighting eternal wars. We need LESS government, not better or more what we want government. It's all evil. Government is evil - it may be a necessary evil, but don't forget the evil part, and it should be as small as possible. Virtually nothing it does needs to be done. We don't need food inspectors, markets handle that quite well. We don't need labor laws - markets handle that fine & a vibrant labor market will do more for workers' rights than government ever could. Environmental laws are nonsense - private property rights work better. And so on. Government doesn't tax us to provide services, it provides services in order to tax us - cutting us in for a share of the loot so we don't object to the theft. Just gut it all - stop voting for your preferred warden. Prosperity is the best policy that ameliorates all other social ills better than any policy ever could. Look at it this way: government reduces growth in exchange for some good, but if you had the growth & let that growth compound, in a few years wealth would have solved the problem anyway. And the wealth bit actually works. Go for growth, and the other things come along for free. Unlike government programs which rarely work & always have unintended side effects. Government is madness.
