What to look forward to from Gropey’s illegitimate ruling junta.
With this new government, most people will have very little control over their lives. Those at the top of government will have a lot of power and will probably take a lot of perverse pleasure in it. State legislators in what will become the minority party are not at the top of government and will have no more power than the rest of us.
So, no different than now, then.
What kind of changes will we have to endure? We will wear masks forever. There will always be a medical crisis mandating them.
Again: nothing new there.
There will be a war on combustion.
That’s poorly phrased; the war will be on internal combustion engines. There’ll be plenty of combustion out there, as BLM/PantiFa/et al burn White Suburbia to the ground.
We will be forced to drive electric cars or no car at all. Barack Obama began this effort in 2009 with his “cash for clunkers” program.
Don’t try to tell me you didn’t see THAT coming.
Thanks to new regulations, we will pay much higher prices for technology and medical care.
Already are, thanks.
We will have medical death panels. It is already starting.
We’ve had “death panels” since 2009, actually.
The first to receive the COVID-19 vaccine will be health care workers and nursing home residents. So far, the choice is palatable, but who will be the next one to be deemed worthy of survival? I assume that I will be dead last (pun intended).
I assure you I won’t be taking it at all—not ever, no matter what—so you needn’t worry about tripping over me to get it. “Survival”? Your concern is duly noted, but what with the Red Death’s less-than-intimidating IFR, I’ll tend to my own knitting there, thanks.
The war on combustion means there will be no fossil fuel to heat our homes. We will have to use heat pumps exclusively. Heat pumps require refrigerant. There is already a high price for refrigerant because of previous regulations. Expect the price to go higher. All of this will lead to rationing of electricity. There will be either rolling blackouts or central control of the thermostat. The latter already occurs in some people’s homes.
I’ll take “central control of the thermostat” for a thousand, Alex.
Government monitoring of our telephone calls and internet use will continue.
What, you really thought any of that was going away?
All guns will be confiscated.
They will certainly try. Jury is almost but not quite out on getting it done, though.
The state legislators will not be exempt from this horror.
Wanna bet?
I call upon all Republican state legislators in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to reject the 2020 presidential elections in their states as inconclusive and vote in their own slate of electors. Make democracy great again.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for it, ‘kay? As has already been too-adequately demonstrated, the Repukes are part of the whole swindle, just another cog in the dirty machine.
