Why Conservatives Want Government To Fail Everywhere by Thom Hartmann

Will the oligarchs and their useful idiots win? Consider that  GOP governors like Greg Abbott & Ron DeSantis are, like  Bolsonaro & Orbán, willing to let children die to further their political careers. T he Peace Research Institute study found that the Covid pandemic further eroded faith in government  across Europe & the US. This is the capstone of “conservative” or neoliberal efforts to destroy faith in democratic governance in developed countries, an effort that goes back 50 years.  Progressives here and in other Murdoch-infected countries are doing their best to create functioning “will of the people” governments in the face of daily over-the-top and often based-on-total-lies attacks from elected “conservatives,” news networks owned by rightwing oligarchs, and online trolls funded by several foreign governments who all are heavily invested in seeing our form of government fail!"
