Our kids will be going back. They are finalizing the plan but it’s essentially all systems go with a few precautions.

Same but with the option to go physically or distant.

many districts (most?) will offer an online/virtual platform.

My area is having nobody return to school for AT LEAST the first 9 weeks of the school year. It will be done all online.

Anyone else happy with the TSA numbers right now? Cases are at an all time high and yet we still don’t really see decreasing numbers. I’d call that a win.

Maybe we are (slowly) getting better at navigating this.
Maybe people ae realizing the Vid is about 1/20th as dangerous as originally thought. Unfortunately there aren't alot of places to travel. Disney isn't Disney at the moment. Tourist destinations aren't fun at the moment. Businesses and people are saving their money just in case everything craters economically (more so than it already has). And many cities have civil unrest. Who wants to go to Portland or Seattle?

That's all well and good but if you look at the actual numbers YOY and the graph I posted earlier today you will see that the numbers ARE DOWN.

What do you mean when I complained that they have no right to get involved? YOU brought up the Portland issue, no one else did.

In any case, you're talking about two issues as if they are the same. I support a federal role in responding to a national emergency because this crisis transcends state borders. No single state will be able to contain this virus acting alone. That's a fact that must be recognized. National coordination among the states is best facilitated by the federal government.

I do not support the use of federal officers being deployed to a city against the will of locals and local officials, especially when they are arresting people without cause and denying the most basic constitutional rights. Frankly, anyone who cares about the constitution should be concerned about this attack on the 4th amendment.

If you think this makes me a hypocrite, then believe what you want to believe.

we don't see any growth beyond 25-30% level either. God forbid it drops back to 10% but I say that is unlikely.

not sure how many of the heads counted are first class or even profitable tickets. TSA is just a body count.

to "win" you have to have a game. you also need to define what a "win" is.

steady growth and past 50% by late summer might be a win

we are nowhere close
