Sabres in the finals? The china virus itself is real. The scare is absolutely exaggerated, which is why I use the word "hoax." Had a guy doing a cost estimate in my house today. Offered to wear a mask, I told him I don't bother with that, and his beard meant it could not get a proper seal anyhow. He seemed to appreciate it. I see people walking outside, alone, with a mask and wonder what they think they are accomplishing. I do wonder if we are going to look like SE Asia, with lots of people wearing them long term. The reality is a vaccine may never happen and it has to be lived with. The masks are going to be just another dividing line in American society. If I heard correctly, PA goes before SCOTUS tomorrow to force an open. That would probably make other states fall in line if the opening happens. We are clearly at a point that more people want to open than stay home. We are near violent rebellion in MI. Open it up. People who want to work can go to work. Cut off the unemployment for people who want to stay home. The President is a fink. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25013 | Why do people keep saying the economy is in complete shut down? Not even close to true. 160 million employed people in the US, 30 mil have applied for unemployment, about 40 million total unemployed. That leaves 120 million still working. My wife's whole fam is working from home. So are my neighbors. Whole segments of the economy are untouched by the virus. Some of them are booming. I can still buy gas, go to the grocery store, get packages delivered 7 days a week. We are hardly in total shutdown, the media is just hysterical as usual. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

To righties, success looks like a 9/11 per day for months on end. Sad how far they go to demean themselves in service of the almighty orange one. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

He’s not worth it. They’ve completely debased themselves for somebody so undeserving of it. |

No Trump These pro Trumpers that believe the virus is a hoax don't believe any Governor They refuse to social distance, wont wear masks and shake hands Trump has influence, he can get these nuts to get with the program Instead Trump eggs them on and they will endanger peoples lives in this country regardless of lockdown or no lockdown Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

So it is only "Trumpers" out there violating the guidelines of the Governors, huh? I've seen pictures from areas (including around Houston) which don't strike me as "Trumper" areas, if you can define things like that. Trump does have influence. He is encouraging resumption of life and opening the economy under guidelines, but also maintaining social distancing and being as safe as practical. Some people aren't as willing to cede their freedoms to Government in spite of what Trump has said about how things should open up. ...but, of course, blame Trump for everything. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25013 | Last night Laura Ingraham had a long expose on the use of the malaria drug on the virus. She had doctor after doctor after doctor, who all together have treated thousands of patients with fantastic success using the malaria drug. None of them can figure out where the media is getting these doctors that're saying they're getting results killing patients. All these doctors are seeing the opposite. It's almost like there's a plot out there do trash talk the usage of this drug to keep the pandemic going for as long as possible. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Almost like? There clearly is. The malaria drug is off patent and can be sold on the cheap. So old it was part of a MASH episode. The drug companies cannot make their big profits off an old drug. Plus Trump heard of the great results and the TDS sufferers thus will never accept it. The President is a fink. |
