It should be known by all Americans that more than half of the deaths in this pandemic were due to an ignorant and misguided effort to "save money" for the one entity (the federal government) that has no need for the money it creates at will. Death by disease is sad, but hardly to be blamed on any persons or institutions. Death by ignorance and political purposes, however, should never be excused and those responsible should be brought to justice.

I don't say this as only an indictment solely of Trump or conservatives, but against an evil political and economic system that panders to the ignorance of its victims. This is also not the end, or even the worst, of such death and misery. It is only a beginning and we "must" make all effort to change its course. Our very lives now depend on doing so.
