At some point, the layed-off are going to start asking, “Why are we doing this?”

Problem with that is that the ChiComs released it into their own country (not that they seem to value human life) and I can’t for the life of me figure out what sort of problem they had with Italy.

Italy has a surprisingly large chinese expat community/chinatowns. Going back to the '70s.

“”””What is needed is a payroll continuation plan to support those idled by wuflu.”””””””””

It’s called unemployment. As an employer I paid into the fund for 40 years.

That is it in a nutshell. Why didn’t recent outbreaks of measles or pertussis generate such a reaction?

Trump won’t be able to get ahead of him. As Megan McCain noted, this is the silver bullet that takes his administration out. Too much media pushing the story will overwhelm whatever Trump tries to do. I expect to see the DJIA at 15000 ...it will take years to get back above 25000. This is all engineered by the media.

What? I never posted that or said that. Maybe you read something about Prince Harry who said that about Trump and climate change, said Trump will have blood on his hands with regards to climate but I dont think I even posted that. My stance with this coronavirus from day one has been that the media is deliberately portraying this as something akin to a plague solely to harm Trump and the more they see it harms the stock market and brings about anarchy the more they are going to push it.

Yes, here is the Harry quote....

The phones went silent two days ago at my business. I’ll be having a talk with my employees tomorrow to prepare them. The thing is we’re like family and it breaks my heart.

PING

From # 8:

The WHOLE “discovery” of the new, unknown pneumonia virus in China in December 2019 is just too coincidental.

Isn’t it funny how the Chinese were able to build two complete prefab huge hospitals in just ten days in January? All those design drawings and plans, all those construction materials, all that excavation machinery, all those beds, all that medical technology, all the supplies...it all just happened to be ready to go a month after they “discovered” it.

And wouldn’t you know it? The election is just eight months away.

People who got denied unemployment would always tell me they paid into into. I would tell them no your employer paid for it. Some of them weren’t happy with that fact.

Good way to get rid of disidents and other undesirables while its main purpose was infecting the US

You’re assuming those “hospitals” aren’t just quarantine centers for the infected to die off.

A comparison.

Deaths from Covid-19 4,970 (may not be fully up to date)
Deaths from Measles in 2018- 140,000
Deaths from Tetanus in 2017-38,000
Deaths from Rabies (no single year given) appx 59,000 worldwide.
Deaths from Pertussis (as reported in a 2017 paper) 160,700.

I read there was a conference in NY (I think) in mid October to deal with “Covid-19.” It lasted 3-1/2 hours and Johns Hopkins participated in it, along with other entities. Weird, huh?

Crap.
I was laid off again in November along with 2000 of my closest friends... thought I would have had something by now...

Should have been running a training in NYC this week, but CoronaVirus...

and I’m a tech wizard...

Bloody hell...

At least I threw my entire retirement (IRA) into the SPXS when it was $13.05... but I can’t yet touch it...

Might have to bite the bullet to pay the damn bills.

Real estate prices could drop by half, too. Between wipe-out in the stock market and wipe-out in real estate, lots of people are really screwed for retirement.
