And not just a few of those professionals - almost all of them. Apparently over 99% of these people devoted their lives to researching and administering healthcare at great financial and time expense, then decided to hurt people instead. But they're only murderous and immoral sometimes - most of the people who say they distrust physicians still want surgeries, help with pain, to be taken to the hospital in emergencies etc. It's such a contradictory mentality.

It's the power of propaganda. These people didn't get to this position naturally, they got there because of the billionaire funded propagandists undermining trust in the experts because they are saying "climate change is a huge problem, we need to regulate these oil companies" and "hey, we need to miss out on profits and quarantine for the public good".

Ever wonder why conservatives hate the EPA? A government agency that should be the least controversial around? Yeah, it's because billionaires can make more money dumping toxic waste into the public water supply than responsible disposal. So attack the agency preventing that as being too liberal.

The Koch's, Murdock, she the Mercers have fucked over multiple nations.
