That was weskers own goal
Spencer wanted to make an army he could control
Umbrella just wanted a fuck awesome killing machine they could sell

Testing shit on animals is what made all the creatures. Tyrants were the controlled infection on humans. Different strains created different things.
It's all pretty valid in it's sense.

Lisa trevor is the only unknown as it's not known how much testing was done and what viruses she was exposed to.
But she is the ultimate "unkillable" creature.
The tyrants were the furthest they got with development.

Zombies were never the goal of Umbrella, they used the T-virus to develop BOWs. A human has only a tiny chance of becoming a Tyrant instead of a plain zombie; pretty much all Tyrants are clones of this one Russian guy, I forget the name.

Zombies however will eventually evolve on their own into Crimson Heads and eventually Lickers. They can't really be controlled like a Tyrant and are undesirable.

I forget where they said it but one of the documents was to inject prisoners of war with it and send them home to infect the rest of the troop and turn them into zombies, so it kinda was a bio weapon.

>>
>>333198524
Here's the reason why with a few spoilers
>Spencer is a rich guy who wants to live forever and create a sort of "evolved aryan" utopia where he can be ruler
>creates a company to fund his research with a scientist named James Marcus
>finds a kind of viral strain in flowers only found in some secluded tribal land in Africa called "Progenitor Virus"
>The Progenitor virus has trouble adapting to regular humans because genetics
>James conducts a bunch of tests
>injects it into leeches and creates the T-Virus
>tests it on a bunch of people and some Russian guy wins the lottery
>manage to create a clone army of that same Russian guy resulting in Tyrants, but most people become rotting zombie mutants from T-virus because genetics. Also Tyrants are physically superior in every way but they're not terribly smart
>Spencer decides to sell them to Govts because they have uses as a weapon
>Marcus is replaced by Wesker, who was part of an earlier experiment with the Progenitor virus when he was a child and survived to become one of Umbrella's top scientists along with his buddy William Birkin
>Birkin creates the G-Virus from the T-virus, but it's too unstable
>Spencer grows too old to continue his dream and Wesker takes over his goal of creating a new superior race where he can rule
>Wesker dies
>Bio-terrorism
And that's a brief summary from humble beginnings. I also think the bioweapons angle was part of Spencer's plan of converting the human race.
>sell a bioweapon
>it gets used in some war
>everyone either becomes Tyrants, Lickers, or zombies
>new world order

Do you feel like weakening or relations with long-term allies and premeditated war crimes against our enemies will create a more safe world for Americans?

'Simplify the tax code' sounds nice, however, generally it's just a means to allow the wealthiest to take an even larger share of income in the guise of "well, you hate doing taxes right? well, we'll make it easy"
Well, yes, your taxes will be simple to do, they'll be simple for people who make massive amounts of exploiting loopholes (this is part of why taxes are complicated for large business, closing loopholes requires amendments to the tax code) or have just inherited large amounts of money from their wealthy family members, and have not and will not ever need to work to make their own money

In fact, doing away with the estate tax, or 'death tax', is a key point in his tax plan - something that has very little effect on the poor and is very important to the wealthy, passing on large amounts of wealth to your children

tl;dr - he makes you safer only in the immediate short term and his tax plan isn't awful but will certainly be used to fuck you and to let kids born into rich families continue to fuck your kids

Umbrella made the zombies to hold umbrellas

>>333205764
Sure, I agree. Never said otherwise, to survive it's necessary pretty much
But any other rule other than that one is right

>Do you feel like weakening or relations with long-term allies and premeditated war crimes against our enemies will create a more safe world for Americans?

Trump is the only candidate who doesn't want to stir shit with Russia and Putin. The US has been pulling the weight for our allies a long, long time (the reason much of Europe can afford to be so demilitarized is because we do all the heavy lifting for them). Demanding some more just compensation, or at least using it as a bargaining chip, isn't a bad idea.

The Estate Tax isn't necessarily terrible but depending on where you live it can be set way, way too low to be reasonable (especially since things like real estate count towards it). It needs reform and negotiation, which Trump can do.

Not start shit with Putin, react when Russia invades one of our allies or supports insurgencies that harm the US
The reason the entire foreign service, state department, and the sitting president have come out strongly against Trumps claim that we should be paid for our military protection is because our military hegemony is one of the US's greatest assets
For example, having military bases in Korea, the Philippines, and essentially control over Japan's defense is a much greater asset to us directly, and in opposition to Chinese dominance of the region, than we could ever get from asking for a couple million from the states we have bases in

Seriously, the US armies dominance in many regions is a massive asset - to turn it into a mercenary army and charge our allies for it (when the current state benefits us well and creating incentive for them to establish their own defense harms us) is a poor plan

Trump is opposed to the estate tax, not interested in reforming it, but abolishing it - this is on his website very clearly

It's a bummer seeing people say, 'donald trump is a racist, and he's a fascist' - because that's hyperbole and many of his supporters don't really care anyway - when there are much better reasons not to vote for him
ex. His internet policy and privacy beliefs are directly in opposition to what most 4Chan users would support
