Right now, we are looking at someone stripping the last pieces of meat from the bone of a republic.
I think the government is using the authority it has under the DPA to make suppliers sell to it instead of to others. That's fine. But this business of seizing orders before states can buy them, giving them to private companies, which then auction them to the states -- that is fundamentally corrupt. If that's happening and a Democrat wins in November, I suspect people will be going to prison for that. Maybe there are qui tam suits here for private plaintiffs, too.
