Gotta say, I struggle on some days to reconcile the fact that millions of Americans actually WANT to live in a country with viruses spreading freely, thousand of people getting kicked out of their jobs, billionaires feasting on the government & people being snatched off the street by secret police.

The IRS audited working-class Americans at five times the rate of the wealthy.

Meanwhile, billionaires hide trillions offshore—completely untouched.
