As one of the sick people of the world, I'm not fond of how dismissive people are becoming about my life.

Kill off the rural people to #ownthelibs



Trump’s base doesn’t care that Dear Leader is screwing them as long as they feel that they’re screwing someone on the left.

I just look at it like its your issue to keep yourself safe. Not my issue to keep you safe. If you are one of the unlucky that are prone to have issues with this then its up to you to isolate, wash your hands non stop, wear face masks etc ..... I don't want you to get sick, but I want you to make sure you don't get sick.

I'm not going to see my parents because they are 60, I'm not seeing our neighbors because they have immune disorder issues, but the it should be squarely on their shoulders to keep themselves safe. I'll do my part but shutting everyone else down so some don't get put at risk seems crazy.

I know thats over simplifying things but I've got a lot of spare time to waste on pointless arguments right now.

Can explain to me what this means?

He doesn't want the country to sink into a depression with 30% unemployment next quarter. That would devastate millions of lives as much or more than the virus.

dying is worse than being poor. We can fix the economy with stimulus spending. We can’t bring someone back to life no matter how much money we throw at them.

The problem is nearly all countries in Europe end up in some form of a lockdown. Even Great Britian has started to change its approach after initially trying to go without stopping the economy. It seems like country after country begin with some mild restrictions but as the time passes they see that the virus spreads so easily that they can't keep it under control without imposing strict rules. So the logic would dictate to take on it drastically from the beginning as eventually you end up with a form of a lockdown which needs than longer time to give effects because you treated it too lightly in the beginning.
Unless the US has already knowledge about some promising treatment which with combination of the coming of the warmer weather may stop that thing.

If we lose hundreds of thousands or god forbid millions of lives to the virus we'll sink into a depression anyway.

unless all you care about is desperately trying to prop up your stock market numbers to win re-election.

If only we had evidence of trump acting unethically and desperately to win an election...

Remember @Zombie Alan taught us a few months ago that the potus can do whatever he wants. Any unethical or illegal action is justified because he’s potus. Even if the primary motive is selfish, it can also be considered “good for the country” because he’s potus.
