There are different rules for survival in a place where corporate profit is more valued than human life. Health Insurance companies will kill way more kids than this guy and his sales pitch. The bar for survival is getting higher, ‘she knew the risks’ but couldn’t spot the bullshit: the people who can might survive, and (maybe) their kids.

It’s like Nestle’s formula division setting up shop in North America instead of Africa. The WHO stepped in during that crisis, but I think the USA abandoned that safeguard too.

This is what the majority voted for. Freedom to do harm to fellow Americans. Deregulation. No experts. Survival of the fittest style freedom.

They did their own research. Let them enjoy their freedom from ‘experts’.

The question can also be applied to why people believe in God / follow a religion. The notion of monarchy has (in the UK at least) been tied into pseudo religious notions of ‘chosen by god’ or similar, so it ties into that belief system for better or worse. (Historically the tie-in was to co-opt the obedience baked into faith, but that’s probably lost on modern monarchists and believers.)

People everywhere develop unhealthy relationships with those that are oblivious to them, or outright parasitic and damaging. This is another of those that’s been wrapped up in tradition and ceremony under the guise of ‘normality’ and the status quo. ‘Ignorance is bliss’ may apply.

“a secular government” in theory only.

Depending upon the age of the bios, it may not recognise USB sticks over a certain size. If you can burn your Linux ISO to a CD-R you might have more luck.

Historically, I had a callout to a place where the machine rebooted whenever a train went past: crappy PSU with a dry joint.

Also a machine with an underspecified PSU that couldn’t provide enough power. A physical or optical drive being accessed were enough to tip it over the edge.
