    Oh shit, they're going to use a disaster thats killing people as an excuse to wildly defund/deregulate/privitise infrastructure that people rely on? Fresh new ideas like this must be what people mean when they say capitalism brings innovation.

    Ask a socialist why they hate capitalism, and they'll give you a myriad of reasons. Ask a capitalist why they hate socialism and they'll describe capitalism.

    The UNITED STATES is now under the control of COMMUNISM. We have no choice but to OVERTHROW this corrupt regime and REPLACE it with a system that benefits the PEOPLE, and not just the ELITE.
