Rightwing conspiracies swirling around coronavirus cost withoon
It is cruel to cover a senile old man in a crisis. It is even worse that he has not been removed by the Vice President. Behind the scenes, there was likely a battle between the Secretaries of Health and Human Services on one side and Treasury and Commerce on the other.
The debate was not about the common good but about workers paying rent so that the mortgage backed securities on their homes do not crash. Mnuchin and Ross are the landlords. This is why Mnuchin had the lead in negotiating the bailouts. He has skin in the game.
Evangelical pastors are more conservative than libertarian. They truly believe that not going to Church means going to Hell. That and huge mortgages on their mega churches do not pay themselves. Poverty is not their thing. They made their choice between God and money long ago and chose poorly.
