Several conservative commentators have made statements recently, in which they told their audiences that dying for the economy is 'patriotic', and they would gladly die of coronavirus for the sake of the economy.
Are you willing to die for the economy?
I pledge allegiance, to the Dow, of the United States of Economy, and to the stock market in which it stands, one economy under Goldman, indivisible, with globalism and coronavirus for all.
Glenn Beck told viewers of his eponymous BlazeTV program that older Americans should get back to work in order to “keep this economy going and working,” even if that means risking death by complications of the new coronavirus.
“I would rather have my children stay home and all of us who are over 50 go in and keep this economy going and working,” Beck, who noted that he is in “the danger zone” because he is 56 years old, said. “Even if we all get sick, I’d rather die than kill the country.”

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) told Tucker Carlson’s Fox show we need to get back to work now, level of death be damned, and says grandparents should be willing to die to save the economy for their grandchildren.
