Lol no, it isn't. You're absolutely delusional if you think the elite rich are wealthy because of labor exploitation. That might be how some people get to the middle class, but the elite rich are monopolists and rent collectors first and foremost with investments as far as you can imagine.

The main goal of the ultra-rich is to first destroy the competition by destroying the middle class (as they did in California) and their secondary goal is to convince poor people that they can never make it to the middle class no matter what life choices they make.

The stock market says otherwise. In fact, you can tell exactly who is making assloads of money over the lockdowns by looking at the discrepancies in public policy.

Small businesses can't have x amount of people in the stores, but you can have unlimited people in casinos.

Amazon is doing just fine with the elimination of competition.

Rich people don't give a fuck about you or Corona. It's just business as usual. Using the government to eliminate competition.

If only we could get the peaceful protesters from throwing ice bottles at innocent statues and accidentally hitting officer friendly.

Also, much of the rioting is going on in swing states. People are not going to support violence in November, and will remember (or be reminded) who allowed the riots to get out of control.

Lol, if the rich want to make money, they keep the poor at home and unemployed. That way they have no competition. It's the poor people unemployed at home that need to work for money. The rich can just live off of the unemployment checks the poor spend just fine.

It's in the rich person's self-interest to make sure as many people are not working or climbing the ladder to eliminate market competition, and they can use the government to force people to stay at home. Easy peasy. Big corporations are absolutely loving all the mom and pop shops going bankrupt due to quarantine. Easy monopolies thanks to the crony government destroying the competition for the rich.

Rich people still don't affect me personally since the government pays for my salary. If they wanna put millions of people out of business and solidify their monopolies, it doesn't affect my personal well-being in the slightest. I just feel bad for the other people who don't have jobs with the government and are not a part of the elite crony club.

The stock market is looking great for the crony elites right now... All that competition under house arrest. It's a scrooge McDuck paradise.

I guess you will be voting for Kanye then, since the rich win no matter who is elected in 2020.

Banning Ice bottles at peaceful protests will solve this confusion.

Great satire lol. We should reinstitute Chop where the only people getting killed and injured were innocent non-cops.

Rich will be as rich or more if Trump loses. Why even care about the rich?

Rich do nothing for or against me, Except pay my salary for my comfy lifestyle. I don't wake up miserable every day because someone a half a mile away lives in a mansion.

I really don't give a fuck about what the government does for or against the rich since I am not rich. I do care what the government does to me though.

Shocking admission.

And the cherry on top, a police chief injured.

"Few"..."Random"...attacks...what a joke opinion. Great satire HB.

I really don't care if Trump loses at this point. Liberal cities are on fire right now. No elite is safe. 

Every media outlet censors, and at the same time is never held accountable for pushing fake news. It's all political. Nobody in the media gives a fuck about you.

Making them go back to school for one. CDC overwhelmingly states kids are suffering massive health risks due to quarantine along with child abuse.

Censored scientists on Youtube repeatedly confirm this along with actual Covid numbers for children the MSM is actively censoring as a political matter.

It most certainly is political once the censoring begins.

This is a typical Trump "protest"

So what? Everything is censored. You don't know anything. I don't care about Trump when im living in the middle of a 1984 Dystopia.

I stopped caring about covid the moment Youtube started censoring scientists.

Read the article...there is a teir for death by pnemonia...a tier for death by covid...and a teir for death by covid on ventilator.

Didn't the Pope denounce Trump multiple times publicly?

This article explains why it has to be listed on the death certificate to qualify for CARES act monies.

I lived through the aftermath of Katrina, New Orleans; and the corruption as the billions of dollars of aid flowed in was staggering.

Contractors were actually going out and raising a house an inch and then charging the federal government 60,000 dollars per house lift while kicking some of the money back to the homeowner client.

Disgusting.

The whole deal about "probable case" is that any doctor can "feel" a death is covid related. When something is THAT subjective...and money is involved...you KNOW there is going to be a LOT of corruption. Such as in the case that the doctor "felt" that Covid might have been the cause of this man's motercycle accident. Who would be the person to say otherwise? There is ZERO accountability and oversight on this.

You are assuming that I am assuming.

It doesn't matter anyway. People with Covid are counted the same as from Covid.

Okay let's try this again. How does a hospital discharge a dead person?

Dude. READ-THE-BILL.

Hospital gets the money ON A DISCHARGE. A death certificate is a certificate of DISCHARGE. You can't get funding for just sending in a COVID test result.

I swear, the mental gymnastics your cognitive-dissonance goes through are positively astounding. Has your brain EVER felt a moment of prolonged uncertainty?

Guess what? It's actually OK for your brain to be wrong about things.

What is much more dangerous is pretending Covid is as dangerous to healthy young people as it is to Older at-risk people. It's not, and the numbers back it up. Yes it's much more dangerous for at-risk people. No, it's not more dangerous to children and healthy 20-40 year olds.

It leads to the continuation of policies that hurt young people as the CDC has constantly pointed out. The CDC knows what is dangerous, and irresponsible. The current policies of quarantining healthy children are.

Lol what are you talking about? You can't get a dead person to sign discharge papers. It's not like they can get up and walk out of the hospital. SMH. The funding isn't given on admittance. The funding is given upon discharge.

Not to children and healthy 20-40 year olds. Numbers clearly back that up.

It's immediate proof for the financial claim. A death is counted as a discharge from the hospital.

Well then you can easily take the contrapositive of your own claim. You are making risk assessments when you have no clue how fatal Covid is. Why would you listen to politicians who are lying to your face when they claim the science is on "their side?"

The fact of the matter is that there are DOZENS of preliminary studies that give us a very good idea about how Covid works, and we don't have to operate like a government agency and wait 10 years before someone in authority can safely tell you what to do with zero liability. Well you can I guess. Most people are much less robotic.

It's this bill sorry.

(Sec. 3710) This section increases payment under the Medicare prospective payment system, during the public health emergency, for inpatient hospital discharges of individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 by 20% for the uninsured and Medicare patients.

I love your assumptions of your own ignorance. Fascinating.

It's one thing to state "I haven't seen the research yet" and then quite another thing to form an opinion based on the belief that "because I have not seen the research, it most certainly cannot exist."

It is true that a section of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (or the CARES Act) calls for higher compensation from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for the care of patients with a primary or secondary diagnosis of COVID-19.  The measure is found in Section 3710, and the increase is 20%.

Covid is still very dangerous for at-risk people.

Asymptomatic people already have inflated the covid death numbers. Many dead people tested with even a faint residual of Covid got marked down as a Covid death.

You had to know that was going to happen when hospitals got rewarded with Federal dollars for inflating death counts of Covid.

That's a common misconception. The viral loads of infected people talking or breathing are far, far lower, almost undetectable compared to a cough or sneeze. 

Go look it up.

When masked people cough or sneeze, unless they have an airtight fit, massive jets of air coat the cheeks and face areas with the virus which everyone immediately then spreads around with their hands, gloves or no gloves. Scientists are just way too afraid to admit they can't really do much to stop or slow a virus from running it's natural course through herd immunity.

Sell immediately if Trump loses, unless you are in hedge funds. You can also swap over to hedge funds as well.

Think about ewhat happens when people in cloth masks sneeze and cough. It goes right onto their cheeks, and they almost ALWAYS touch their face with their hands RIGHT AFTER.

There's a reason why theres no conclusive science that cloth masks work at all to stop transmissions.

People spread it slower during normal flu when they coughed on their sleeves...at least they didn't transmit the infested saliva all over their hands then.

Did you see the data about the viral loads of know infected people normally breathing?

I heard Youtube censored videos of Fauci claiming there is no science proving masks significantly help prevent the spread.

Tell me about which experts we are suppossed to listen to again? Just the uncensored ones?

Sure.

Which ones? Cause some are a LOT louder than others. Some are censored more than others.

I'm all for states running themselves like a 3rd world country. We need something to laugh at. Why all the hate for States?

You should fall back on your good/bad schticks. The hoi pelloi likes that kind of satire.

Thanks for another round of satire with the ever popular DD. Noow, back to our  regular scheduled programming.

Basically you have to use common sense to figure out which "expert" is more likely to be right than wrong.

Buying lottery tickets is not working hard. They are taught the opposite.

Did you watch my 3-minute video on Learned Helplessness?

The Government of rich elites is represented by the rope in this video.
