Is racism covered under Obamacare? Do we consider it a pre-existing condition? Is longterm disability an option?

Why?

My first guess; Because those who are deemed to have a psychological/medical issue have fewer protections in the loss of rights and have fewer due process protections than those in the criminal justice system.

Second guess; Money. Probably lots of it to be had.

This new approach seems to have come out of the blue but I suspect it’s been planned. The question is, what’s the real plan? Are they being straight about the purpose?

Is racism contagious?

Are we going to have to lock down the country, but especially churches?

I live in a giant lunatic asylum, and the lunatics run it.

The biggest public health issue facing Blacks and other minorities is their dependence to the Democrat Party!

They may be onto something. Blacks and Hispanics are very racist against whites.

I feel it all the time when I’m around a group of them.

This is what they mean right?

Here is something NOT being reported. How many black cops have shot and killed whites? Were all human beings Black, White, Brown, Yellow. Red. Forget the race, let’s ALL get along.

If you have Facebook, look for Candace Owens’ profile and watch her recent video.

Here we go. The coronavirus template for government takeover of the economy is already spreading. Next thing that Democrats will try to declare a public health crisis will be climate change. Democracy will be replaced by Rule by Crisis!

You're onto something. This is a back door to reparations.

Systemic Racism:

You can’t do it on your own

You Need special democrat programs to help you, because you can’t do it on your own

You need Democrats to Control and Manage your life, you can’t do it on your own

You can’t learn on your own, you need Democrat help.

you don’t need to engage in traditional nuclear family life and raise your children with BOTH parents. Democrats are here to be your Daddy.

You need Democrat help to achieve anything,you can’t do it on your own

Without Democrats you can NEVER make it on your own!!!

Now, see, I interpreted it the other way. If I have a chronic condition, as a white person, that I am irremediably racist, then maybe I should go out on disability and sit at home and wait for my big government check. I’m sick. I need help.
