For Those that Think COVID-19 is Like the Flu...

[Earth Wind and Fire]

Its going to play out like this.
1. Quarantine
2. Wreck the economy
3. Lift the quarantine
4. Virus spreads and kills huge numbers.
5. Virus killed who it would have killed anyway AND economy lies in shambles.

If this really is a war against the virus, we win by fighting, not by hiding.

From my prospective, the economy was wrecked a while, but nobody paid any attention to any of the warning sighs. We don’t have a balanced budget, the Fed was printing money like crazy to prop up the banks, the interests rates were in the gutter, and the dollar was devaluation daily, people were buying on credit without any discipline, illegal immigration through the roof, low paying dead end jobs, blah, blah so let’s roll the dice. Perhaps it’s time to rebuild. Maybe rob a bank ( just kidding)

Who cares what the man does with his horses!

He claims to be a humanitarian.

I'm telling you the numbers are inflated.

And where is your evidence to prove that out?

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

So many people: “Please save us, Mr. Government, from this virus! We’ll let you have any power and give up any liberty you demand.” Then, after Mr. Government crashes the economy in fighting the virus, “Please save us, Mr. Government, from this economic collapse. We’ll let you have any power and give up any liberty you demand.”

Who are you referring to as Mr Government?

 

[Earth Wind and Fire]

Who do we want in charge of fixing it when the dust settles? Trump or Biden?

Both are scary

Both are scary

To you.

To you.

To anyone with half a brain

The government. Just added a prefix to it. Personified it.

Read through the thread. I've already posted articles.

Touche...but let us not be flippant and indiscreet since you don't have even the minimum, you aren’t even there. Why then would you reveal your lack? Not surprising though, intelligence is way beyond you.

Don’t you know by now that the government is the biggest enemy to the people and that politicians are not born but excreted.

I will if there is solid evidence but not if there is conjecture.

Another genius commentary IC. Tell me all about your rat sightings in New Orleans and then plunge your own toilet

Just in case you were not up to speed, here is what Trump thinks about this issue as of last week.

But think of what would have happened if we didn't do anything. I mean, I've had many friends, business people, people with great, actually, common sense - they said, "Why don't we ride it out?" A lot of people have said. A lot of people have thought about it. "Ride it out. Don't do anything, just ride it out and think of it as the flu." But it's not the flu. It's vicious.

You think Trump is scary? This is how China keeps their numbers down:

Article pretty much begins by acknowledging they have no proof. That headline doesn’t care about such trivial things though. Goodness gracious. More panic inducing from the liberal media. Oh wait this is Breitbart. Whoops.

Trump is the right leader for this time. He's got a keen eye for finding the right balance. He sensed this was not just a normal flu. Maybe not that deadly, but highly transmittable and more deadly for that reason alone. He made the call, and it was the right one.

And now, the numbers are way down, and I give him the lion's share of the credit. The projections were likely high from the get go, but Trump's response lowered them even further.

Imagine if Hillary was in charge! Imagine NY and all other major cities with unrestricted China travel in February and March. Imagine the spin from the media defending her and praising her non-racist approach.

Now Trump has the task of finding the right time to open the country back up for business. I think he'll nail this one also. I predict it's going to be sooner than most think.
