We’re always living on the edge of demise. That’s why we need to keep working; to hold off the demise.
We had better be controlled for anything and everything that causes deaths anywhere near and above covid-19 numbers.
Over-eating. Under-exercising. Smoking. Medical procedures. Accidents. Drinking. DUI. Suicide.
Better block us, penalize us and ankle-bracelet us to protect us against all dangerous activities.
No more trampolines and swimming pools, elective cosmetic surgeries, alcohol sales, chain and circular saws, off-roading, ocean swimming, driving over 35 mph...so many possibly deadly things!
Uncle Sam, please save us!!!
The point of the matter is, the lock down is a gross overreaction. Our People are Sheeple.
If that is your belief, then take no precautions against COVID-19.
That’s your choice and your responsibility.
The next time one of these fake epidemics is sprung on us, we ought to immediately seize all media outlets and the salaries of government employees and confiscate all their paychecks. The First Amendment obviously doesn’t apply to the rest of us, so why should these groups, responsible for destroying our livelihoods, remain fat and happy, profiting from the disaster they manufactured?
228,000 suicides. That number will soar.
Wouldn’t people who at at risk always take precautions, just like those at risk from the flu? It just doesn’t have to be over-the-top like this. The arithmetic belies the need for full scale panic. Or, are you numerically impaired?
Probably, when western civilization falls, the the primary culprit will be risk aversion.
Trump ain’t no fool.
We win. They lose.
I worry that the country will, in the future, react to any “flu, virus, or contagion” just like we’ve reacted to this....
I’m not in a panic. I will take precautions and have prepped for such an event.
Medical mistakes kill hundreds of thousands of Americans annually.
Bet healthcare professionals kill more people than WuFlu this year, too...
Flubros never give up. I’ll give you that.
At some point soon they are going to have to open the economy or the cure will be worse than the disease.
Also at some point in the near future CorornaVirus deaths will far surpass the flu.
Context BUMP! Cause of death recording BUMP Amplification by media and strength of platform BUMP! Lots of variables BUMP!
“The next time one of these fake epidemics is sprung on us, we ought to immediately seize all media outlets and the salaries of government employees and confiscate all their paychecks.”

Excellent !
I think our people and our nation can withstand a month of lockdown. If not, we were all living in the edge of demise.
....
Oh will you please spare us with your “demise” talk! Nothing worse than drama queens!
You do not seem to understand that a very bad and scary precedent has been set here! Politicians, at the snap of their fingers turned off the U.S. economy! This should scare the hell out of you! If this continues, not only will more jobs and businesses be lost, but retirements will vanish, and production will completely stop! You cannot NOT artificially shut down an economy as large as the US economy without serious consequences!
I cannot believe some have gladly given up some of their freedoms to politicians for a little safety!
WE’ll see how much you like this when the Dems are running the government and decide to pull this type of sh*t again!
Politicians will never give up this power they’ve tasted during this hoax of a pandemic!
“Politicians will never give up this power they’ve tasted during this hoax of a pandemic!”
This is not a hoax of a pandemic.
During the lock down I see a population boom!!
That, along with an abortion boom. They never tell us how many babies are killed.
States should be required to register positive test results with a person. The results should be verified if the death certificate is listing Coronavirus as cause. It is a money grab by states.
