If you lose $20 and then find $20 on the street are you $20 richer?

We got the jobs back that we lost due to the pandemic plus a little more. That’s not growth. There are more jobs than employees because of the vaccine mandates.

It’s frustrating when people don’t remember how we got here.

You can’t fix stupid. I wouldn’t even bother explaining that to him.

The FBI director was in front of congress under oath calling right wing extremism the single greatest threat to our republic and Fox was broadcasting MrPotatoHeadGate 24/7 instead. I watch Fox so I'm not a massive hypocrite, and to get different viewpoints and its just the most absurd propaganda and nonsense sandwiched between adds for reverse mortgages and adult diapers. They get away with not outright lying sometimes by simply not covering stories that paint them in a bad light. The opinion shows get away with lying by going into court, and stating under oath that they are just entertainment and you would have to be a total moron to actually believe them. (Tucker Carlson did just this.)

The "truth bubble" folks live in willfull ignorance, but insist they are the most well informed.
A lot of truth in this post. But it will be lost on most.

Really? Maybe it’s because we lost a million Americans to Covid. Maybe, it’s because it’s been more difficult to find care for young children. I doubt the vaccine mandates had anything to do with it. Whatever tucker tells you.

Well, approximately 2.85 million Americans died in 2019. Approximately 3.45 million died in 2021. That's an increase in deaths of over 20%. I guess those extra 600,000 died with COVID for no reason at all.

I assume this is in reference to my FIFY edit. Can you point to anything I wrote that says those million died for “no reason at all” or is this you just making up sht? No doubt chynaflu contributed to many deaths. But there’s a difference in something like this virus causing a million deaths and merely being a factor in a million deaths. Since you seem to like stats, can you tell how many of the above 600,000 you cite died with no other health issues other than covid…in other words…died from covid? Can you tell us how many died with covid, and/or diabetes, and/or cancer, and/or previous cardiac issues, and/or trauma, and/or a number of other factors? When you do, please go take it to another covid thread and take this garbage out of the class drop thread.

All this because of embraerpilots beyond ridiculous stance about economic growth in the last year…what a joke. No use in this thread getting derailed by leftist lunatics any further, so I’m out until it’s back to class drops.

Total US deaths per year was pretty stable year after year after year. The deaths per year didn't jump up and down 20% from year to year, they were statistically stable. Then COVID, and you see a dramatic jump in annual deaths.

No doubt Americans prior to 2020 had diabetes, cancer and cardiac issues, yet deaths were stable. If you look at the statistically significant increase in deaths in 2020, 2021 and 2022, I have no doubt you will find approximately 1 million deaths more than would have been statistically predicted before the pandemic based on the stable year to year death counts.

There really is nothing more to say on the subject frankly. That pretty much is the final word anyway, so back to class drops or hiring or whatever.
