I thought you were just optimistic before. But the quote above is delusional. Maybe you haven’t seen these signals before from up close.

here’s they funny thing about humans. They will rise up right until it affects them. How dare my company send me on a business trip! They don’t care about my health! Corporate greed!!!!!

ok then I won’t send you on your trip and you can stay home and not get paid.....

but, but, but......send me on the business trip because I need to go to the spa next week.

we are to soon into this for the normal people to feel any pain. When they do they will come back and fly again. There isn’t enough dead people that aren’t old and sick to cause a lasting effect. The presidential debates will kick off in a couple months and you won’t see corona virus on any front page.

Sure you will. Each party will be blaming the other for everything. This candidate went too far, not far enough, exaggerated, minimized, etc.

Spas and presidential debates are going to have people wanting to buy plane tickets quickly? I see. I get it now. You’re gonna have to learn the hard way.

Read up on what the countries you mentioned think of BS calling them socialist. It’s not a matter of opinion.

This exactly. If 80000 deaths a year from flu hasn't crippled us, how can Corona, without the media panic And our airports take payment from CNN to broadcast this garbage

Only 2000 folks in the USA have been tested. Unfortunately, I don’t think this will be like the flu. If you apply the Dos Equis 19 fatality (estimated) rate to influenza, the numbers are staggering. Hopefully the worst case scenarios do not take place.

I heard a report (looking for a source) that Chinese crematories are stacking up bodies.

It’s time for a good change don’t you think so? The green deal would be great for the environment.
Not a sarcastic post btw.
Are you saying we should be all white Lutheran's?
