Sacrifice

Earlier this week during a televised interview, when asked about whether the priority should be human life or reopening businesses, the lieutenant governor of Texas, a Republican, said the following:

"No one reached out to me and said, as a senior citizen, 'Are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the America that all America loves for your children and grandchildren?' And if that’s the exchange, I’m all in. I just think there’s lots of grandparents out there in this country like me" (details here and here).

So older people should be willing to die by coronavirus to ensure that the economy gets cracking again as soon as possible.

And this from the so-called "pro life" party.

No one's life is worth more or less than another. To suggest otherwise is abominable.
