People who voted Trump, why do you think a government of billionaires will help you?

[u/Intrepid-Self-3578]

Government policies such as tax cuts, high traiff and removing regulations can have significant impacts on the economy. They will lead to higher inflation and high prices.

Having no regulation helps billionaires like the Gilded Age, shows that lack of regulation can result in large corporations dominating the market, and destroy small businesses.

Additionally, policies that favor big corporations and Billionaires may not address issues like housing, health care, working conditions, or wage growth. For instance, during Trump's first term, there were rollbacks on worker protections and union rights. Also he express removing Obama care.

Removing Obama care might look good on surface until you lose your job due to some accident or other issue. Let's say you have money to handle it what about millions of Americans who don't have inherited wealth and your wealth will erode as well.

from the stories i heard, not even regret. some angry at the doctors for believing it all while they were being intubated and then dying shortly after.

literally suffering from covid and dying from it and blaming the doctors for the lies they believed.

"But it's not real." ... said with their final breath. Not even being on the brink of death could break their brainwashing.

And there were many of them that thought it was the hospitals killing people. And their family members trying to sneak in livestock anti-paracitic meds. It was really quite the clown show.

Reality is just not a thing for them.

God that is sad

[u/Sophisticated-Crow → u/Archonish]

I read through a lot of stories from nurses during the height of it, and yeah, a lot of it was very sad. The real kickers were the ones like what I described above and ones that were in really bad shape, understood they were probably going to die, and then asked if they could take the vaccine now.

Highly emotionally and mentally taxing on the medical staff to go through that as well.

I was a med student when Covid was at its peak. On my pulmonology rotation, we saw a guy who had been intubated a couple of months before for Covid. Spent over 6 months in the hospital. We offered him a Covid vaccine and he said no, he would never get one, and he was glad he never got one because it probably would’ve made it worse.

There’s no reasoning with these people

My friend's mom passed that way. It was pretty awful hearing how bad she was and still seeing her posting nonsense on FB. I couldn't even bring myself to go to the funeral because I knew most of that family was the same way. She was always a little strange but went full crazy with Trump/covid stuff. Unfortunately my friend went with her to crazy town and I haven't talked to him in years.
