People need to realize the tax money the government's sunk into the military-industrial complex was extortion and part of a protection racket.

The government is there for us. It's there to do our business, not to serve as an organ for wealth distribution to the already wealthy.
We have been taught, through our biased, propagandist history and by social learning, that the government is its own entity removed from us and that it's necessary because otherwise we would be eradicated.

We have to remember the government is only sovereign because we allow it.
For the federal government to just do nothing to help during a pandemic, to horde our money for its own purposes while we starve and die, is a complete abdication of its responsibility to do our business.

This is a major thing and spectacle politics and militarism facilitated it
