Not only are Americans finally receiving a wake-up call as to the reality of the bankrupt social order in which we live due to the Great Depression we are now experiencing, caused in part by a private profit healthcare system that cannot protect us from any pandemic, the children of immigrants including this writer, know what their parents did not see, namely that there is no future in this backward country, with the expensive private profit healthcare system being a primary problem. A young Vietnamese-American describes this country as follows at https://www.huffpost.com/entry/america-not-better-life-immigrants_n_5f1afce3c5b6f2f6c9f5b2cb
'I don’t want to be here anymore. I realize I say this as a very lucky person. Yet with all my luck and privilege I don’t currently have health care. My parents’ expectations are that as a grown adult I should be able to provide for myself, but with cheapest options available at $500 per month it feels like there’s no choice at all. "
"More than a third of young adults in America believe there are better countries than the U.S. I’m one of them."
There are lots of us older people who feel the same but we have nowhere to go, so we will stay and change this country, which is now collapsing all around us since the Republican Party refuses to pay for the safety net, meager as it is. The Democrats and the Republicans refuse to support Medicare for All, HR 1384, a form of socialized medicine that exists in the rest of the industrialized world, including in very poor Vietnam, which has 0 deaths from COVID19 because it has socialized medicine.
Nazi Trump is losing in the polls although he still has 38% to 40% support, but his election fraud team is everywhere, from the goon squad in Portland courtesy the Gestapo-named Homeland Security Department formed precisely to terrorize the workingclass at home right after the 9/11 Inside Job, to burning down the Arizona Democratic Party's office. See https://www.huffpost.com/entry/arizona-democratic-hq-arson-attack-phoenix_n_5f1be9b3c5b6128e68263d0c
August is the final kickoff of this year's presidential campaign, with the Democrat-Republican Party conventions scheduled for the last 2 weeks of August. It is also the month in which we will see a total collapse of this country if the safety net is not restored. For more on the ultimate result of this collapse, see https://www.globalresearch.ca/what-lies-ahead-permanent-job-losses-poverty-in-america-financial-and-political-instability/5718820
All aboard the freedom train to end the private profit system that is the cause of all our grief. Every end is a new beginning!
