You're advocating for collective punishment / victim blaming, and bigoted treatment of people as a uniform hivemind. That's the tao of divided-and-conquered mindset that doesn't help anyone. The only historical and perpetual enemy of the people is a small cadre of ultra rich, their politicians, and their lobbyists.
My voting record since 2008 has been Obama, Obama, Clinton, Biden, Harris. What do you think it is that I deserve?
Sorry I didn't mean YOU you, I meant the "royal you". As in we collectively in this country get what we democratically elected - myself included.

The American people have happily voted against their interests and we can blame no one but ourselves (again, collectively).
