Thank you for continuing to see clearly and report articulately. I myself would be lost without your Notes from the Circus. I am not exaggerating. I learn from each reading and I understand what is actually happening better. Thank you from both the bottom of my heart and the depth of my mind.

Why?

This is illogical.

Do they want lower income people to die? I'm asking seriously.

Why destabilize society?

Does it give them an opportunity to gain more political power?

I think we are ruled by a class of sociopaths. Are they stupid as well?

Yes, if poor people, older people die, social programs aren’t needed. Not only do they want more power, they want more wealth. For many the concept of enough is instead, never enough. They want more land, more minerals, anything of value to continue to line their pockets. They are insatiable & dRumpf is completely infected with that disease. After all, he is the 3rd generation of liars & grifters and learned racism, misogyny & thievery at the knees of his father & grandfather.
