Yep. And you are in California, Gavin Newsome has unlawful dictatorial powers. When thousands become unemployed, thousands of businesses go bankrupt, what will he say then? Everyone unemployed, every bankrupt business should sue the state and every mayor that imposed this unconstitutional fiat on the populace.

First of all, the idea was to flatten the curve so that hospital personnel would not be overwhelmed. Also, some treatments are proving to be effective. Immunity is being achieved throughout the herd. It is a bad virus, but not as bad as originally thought.

Perhaps the virus and the economy can coexist.

No Eagle, I meant “in that event”, as in “if that comes to pass”. Sorry to have been unclear. :-)

That’s what our authorities said a month ago? Recently, it sounded like they are trying to stop us from getting sick in the first place, which is impossible.

Oh. No, that’s on me. My reading comprehension skills can be lacking sometimes.

It’s not done with roofing cement, it’s done with boiling pitch. Old style tar and feathers was a murderous process.

Overwhelmed, they weren’t doing anything and got sent home in most places.

You see the picture posted above? The one with the tar and the feathers? That needs to be in the immediate future of people who are still presenting the argument that the hospitals will become overwhelmed rather than the truth which is that Idle hospitals will go bankrupt.

We have few enough rural hospitals left in Texas after Sharia Rick Perry got through running the state through the ringer.

This entire bug was a scam of epic proportions! You pearl clutchers were pushing the 2.2 million American deaths until Fauci revised it to 100K-240K deaths! But when reality wasn’t matching Fauci’s bogus model, he had to revise it yet again to 60K! Each time these idiotic predictions were made, folks like you assured us it would happen. Oops! As it stands now, the US death rate from this bug is 22,115, and we’re at the peak of this! I’ll wager the US will not hit 60K deaths from this!

Hospitalizations are also way down, and they didn’t need the temporary hospitals they built in New York.

Sorry, but Fauci and the bogus models he loves so much have been wrong about every aspect of this hoax!

You’re going to have to find a new hobby.

America should be ready for 18 months of shutdowns in ‘long, hard road’ ahead, warns the Fed’s Neel Kashkari, president and chief executive officer of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.
‘This could be a long, hard road that we have ahead of us until we get to either an effective therapy or a vaccine. It’s hard for me to see a V-shaped recovery under that scenario.’


That’s just silly. We’d be better off with even 5% dead than the much larger numbers this would cause.

Most of the internet market and business websites, including the WSJ, CNBC, Marketwatch, CCN, Investing.com, etc... are far left Trump hating globalists.

Their coverage is extraordinarily negative, because they want Trump gone.

You’d do better to ignore anything printed on their trash sites.

Yes, I know it was. This is the 21st Century and I don’t have any pine pitch stocked up.
FWIW the roofing cement would have to be heated to apply it too.
It’s as thick as plumber’s putty at room temps.
