Sure.. That totally makes sense. Then we can make sure everyone is in constant fear all of the time from everything.

From the post:

>Do you remember the heat dome that settled over Washington and Oregon in 2021, leading to thousands of hospitalizations and over 600 estimated fatalities? Or last summer’s heat wave in Phoenix, when the temperature hit or exceeded 110 degrees for 31 straight days, accounting for most of Maricopa County’s 645 heat-related deaths in 2023? How closely are you tracking the potentially record-setting heat wave across the Western United States this week? In typical years, more Americans die in heat waves than in hurricanes, tornadoes and floods combined. Historically, though, the public, the media and politicians are quick to forget heat disasters — even where they happen most. It’s as if we have a will not to know about the brutal ways that extreme heat affects us.

Most of us know this is complete and utter bullshit. Think about all the people that believe it though. Therein lies the problem. You think you’re taxed to infinity now?
