(23,099 posts)Make us more stupid by ending public schools, make us sicker and let us die quidkly with no real medical cared and make us have babies, whether we want them and even if it kills us. Then they will have ignorant slaves/serfs who will work for virtually nothing. That's also why they plan on raising taxes on single parent families and giving everything saved plus more to the 1%ers.
And what's worse, they're trying to impose it all over the world (where it isn't already prevailing).
Their primary tool has been the media - particularly in majority-white countries, where they can easily use it to fan racial hatred. But financial sabotage or outright coups (typically something with a veneer of legality, such as impeachment) have also been employed against governments who refuse to go along.
The political figures that take over as a result always push for the same thing: concentration of income toward the top, punitive measures ("austerity" for the rest of us, and a heavy hand for anyone who dissents.

(11,686 posts)and health care I will ask them who they voted for and if they say trump I will tell them they just voted for their problem and they need to be quiet and deal with what they voted to happen to millions or others. I do not want to hear them talk because they are just garbage in my opinion. If they tell me they voted for someone else I will tell them they are part of the problem and if they did not vote at all and did not put their say forward they now have no right for a say.
I hope they remember next November.

(2,037 posts)As much pain as there'll be if Cheeto takes away people's health insurance, I wouldn't be too surprised if his goons stage some 9/11-style event just in time for the mid-term elections next year.
We all saw the effect the Ebola panic - which actually started in a Texas hospital run by rabid Republicans - had on the 2014 mid-terms. The panic literally gave them control of the Senate - and consequently the Supreme Court.
I just hope the voters won't be so easily distracted next year.
