Yeah, okay. Ask an indigenous American if there isn't a coordinated effort in the U.S. to privatize all land.
And ask a Republican if they want any public institutions at this point.

Also, the whole point is that it isn't harm reduction. Whoosh.
I would say "coordinated" is not the right word. It's just an orgy of greed.

Yeah.
