I spent a LOT of years working in private home health care for very wealthy families and these people never give their money away. They create foundations and their families and friends are on the boards and they pay themselves and each other and take "work trips" which are just deductible family vacations. They give away 10% in a generous year. I literally had foundations pay me to take care of their elderly family members in multimillionaire families. They just move all the assets away from that person in the family.

I mean I’m doing whatever I want with my money so why shouldn’t everyone else too. The death tax is like 50 percent I think so, you die the government get half your stuff like a bad divorce then your kids can have what’s left just because you died. That’s crazy why not set up a trust and have it all there so it don’t get taxed OVER AND OVER, you already paid income tax on it.

It could have been an accident, it could have been a planned warfare strategy by any country. (remember, it hit China first, at lightning speeds, so it could have been China, or it could have been any other country planting it there). Theres so many different angles to view the pandemic from, that i myself, have just given that thought up. Its over, its gone. Were back to work. Don't sweat it. Theres nothing we ordinary people could do about this anyways, since corruption is a certain thing in any country... And if there is something we could do, tell me, and i might tell you how that wont work, or consider it myself. Its an Either-Or.
