Is it a coincidence that old people in care homes are dying in huge numbers in the UK and the US...

NO. NOPE. NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT.

It is reported today that at least 4000 people in care homes have died in the UK. Listening to TRMS yesterday the same is being repeated across the US and no-one is talking it about. So a Tory government who hates paying for social care, and a Republican government who hates paying for medicare, and many in this group are now dying or at risk of dying because of inaction.... gotta tell yah, coincidence is a complete and utter bollocks.

Their policy is to protect the herd and fuck the rest. They are horrific.

1. Indeed...😔

2. They only want the part of the herd that

produces their wealth. The rest are no more valuable that the elderly.

3. No coincidence at all. All deaths have been planned for and accomplished by the

powers-that-be. Let's all remember that the next time we vote...

4. Seems to be the case in many countries, as one would expect.

Frail people in close proximity.

With that said, I’m no fan of nursing home funding in the USA.

5. As a socialist and a Brit, I think it is ridiculous to suggest such a strategy to save on

care for the elderly in the UK. I agree they are dying because of inaction, but that is because of narcissistic leadership and a weak opposition. Same in America.
