I am there.
If it’s going to kill me, then so be it, meanwhile I’m going to enjoy living my life as a free person.
I can see quite clearly that the Left is pushing fear just as hard as they can, so they can go to Hell.
Model, Expert, Scientist, Study, Research, Consensus:
Rest in peace.
You were vigorous, alive, meaningful words, useful words, until the Left got its hands on you. For 20 years and longer they have beaten you and abused you and twisted you and malnourished you, wresting all but the last meaning from you, leaving you dawdling and babbling in the nursing home wavering between assisted living and hospice. Alas, came in the night the Covid. Rather than infect you, it merely lined you all up against the wall next to your pee stained beds and shot you in the head 20 times each. You have breathed your last meaning and have passed into eternity as mere apparitions haunting the rotted hallways of the collective conscience of the ghosts of journalism.
2 and 3 yes...1 a hard no...4 is a 6 pack away from yes.
Is it me, or do these writers conflate true physical distancing (staying the heck away from people you don’t know) with the state-mandated torture-machine rules?
A Penn Wharton Budget Model? Well, all righty then.
Garbage in...garbage out. These “modelers” have been exposed. Usually for lots of money they produce a wish list according to their bias. It has zero to do with “science” and a lot to do with guessing and modeling their own bias. I call BS on these models...and the anonymous, over-paid “modelers”. My model predicts that they will be hunted-down and, then, exiled.
How is it the previous models were full of BS and you're now somehow pure as the wind-driven snow?
How much gubmint money have each of these modelers taken?
We know the Globull Warming scientists were taking gubmint money, trying to make gubmint types (e.g., Bushes, Clintons, Barry) happy. It might have skewed their results, but maybe the difference wasn't significant anyway because they just don't know how to accurately predict much.
Come back after you've got 6 months of predictions that subsequently came true within a high degree of correlation. Don't ask us to gamble on your ability to predict the future without it.
What’s with these “broads”...very broads.
And just because all of the other the "world is coming to end" predictions about global warming over the last several decades were found to be wrong, doesn't mean the latest New Green Deal prediction of the world will be burnt toast in 12 years is not correct.
Yeah, I'm buying that BS. Not.
There really is no science about social distancing as a criteria.
What is the difference in terms of infection between “six feet” and “a mask”.
So if a mask works then you don’t need the six feet. But both together are redundant.
So what do the modelers REALLY know about “social distancing”, scientifically? Zip.
When assumptions are faulty, the model is garbage.
One more model, this time from a school of business. 5 million contracting the virus, not dying, not being hospitalized, no specific numbers for any of the possible use cases. Like the previous 2 million will die in a month fantasies, this is more panic propaganda to maintain tight control over the serfs. Just prolonging of The Year of Living Stupid.
People -- even the millions of men who remain frightened -- have to buck up and get on with things!
This one is just as accurate as all the others.

Fattening the curve?
If this was a broker/financial advisor selling plans based on crap models, the bastard would already be in jail awaiting trial for fraud. Why accept any of this happy horseshit as having any kind of validity.
-- Ronald H. Coase
These modelers keep putting out crap models, and suffering no consequences for being wrong. That needs to end.
Models that turn out wildly wrong should preclude the modeler from further grants.
