Yep. And the poor in the US will not be tested because they cannot afford the test ($2000 if negative or false negative, and ? if positive or false positive) and told by their bosses that they still have to work. In the past, say 40+ years ago, anyone who was suspected of having a pandemic disease would be tested for free. This is vulture, gotcha capitalism profiteering off a disaster and assisted by the executive branch. When the POTUS gets sick from a pile of McDonald's cheeseburgers, that's karma.

Even with the modern capitalist system the vast majority of people will be better off than they would have been 40 years ago. Our poor in the US live better lives than billions of people across the globe. Your opinion lacks perspective.
- mx24 7y agoYou should try telling that to a poor person in this country. Your experience “lacks perspective”. This is the wealthiest and most powerful country on earth. How we treat our poor and sick says a lot about us as a country.
