To all people with common sense, who have watched events unfold over the past two months, and have made the attempt to read and inform themselves, carefully weighing data, and keeping an open mind, only to ultimately conclude that COVID-19 is not the Black plague, or even a Screaming Blue Meanie, and are mad as hell about it!
Mad about the inaccurate predictions. Mad about massive government overreach. Mad about the scare tactics. And most of all, mad at the easily manipulated sheeple and the naked attempt by politicians to use this flu as a last ditch attempt to defeat Trump.
So here's a way to be heard. Every night at 6 pm, let's open our windows and give a round of applause to the one Western nation that didn't reflexively join the wild herd. The one country that ignored all the noise and used their own judgement.
Sweden will be have the last laugh on all the masked doomsayers. Until they let us go back to living our normal lives, I consider myself to be an honorary Swede!
That’s an interesting possibility!
Lots of luck with that. They the Democrats will already have dismantled the United States Constitution.. They are doing that now right before your eyes...
Because Wyoming was better than Sweden! And Wyoming followed the federal social distancing guidelines.
This too shows limiting the comparison to lockdown or not commits the fallacy of too few alternatives.

Obviously.
That is my point the entire time.
Thus is what I mean by don’t be too coy or clever or you’ll give the wrong impression.
“the survivors have antibodies “
Any data on antibody testing results in Sweden?
If I own a dine in restaurant, I would just close it down for 2020 and then reopen either in 2021 or 2022. If we survived the Great Depression, we will survive this. Consumer confidence is key here.
You own the building your restaurant is in you still have to pay taxes on that building plus water, light, sewer.. If your renting you business would be out on it’s ear if you didn’t pay the rent...
“This is just a ploy to keep the economy of the United States shut down. Why? To finish President Trump off.”
Exactly why Trump’s actions have been brilliant. They never thought he would “listen to the scientists” and close the economy. But he recognized their trap. Now we are opening, Trump beat them at their own game, again.
Remember this began with your post two comparing dpm in Sweden with three other European countries, and a statement which implied Sweden’s policy was the reason for the difference.
That was logical fallacy or cherry picking.
Is it your contention that it is not logical fallacy or cherry picking to judge Sweden solely in contrast to those three countries cited by you in post 2?
No thanks. Cherry picking posts is as big of a waste of time as cherry picking numbers.
Sweden 256 deaths per million
Denmark 78 deaths per million
Finland 38 deaths per million
Norway 39 deaths per million
Sweden is clearly “winning”!
******************************************
So, dynoman, what are the stats on “possession of COVID-19 ANTIBODIES “ per million of those respective countries?
After all, Objectivity is the essence of intelligence.
Any link supporting the theory that antibodies have to be measured to exist?
Because if that is not true then your post was anti-intelecual garbage.
“possession of COVID-19 ANTIBODIES”
So House Atreides, can you post any comprehensive COVID-19 antibody test results from Sweden?
Thanks.
So, you answer a question with a question?
Very few restaurant owners own the building they operate in. If it was me, I would say “screw it” to rent, furlough my employees so they can collect unemployment. Them I can get a job working at Amazon for a year or two. Ha.
Separate Detroit from the rest of Michigan please. It’s barely hit anywhere else other than Detroit.
Yes, for an obvious reason. Can you answer?
“Separate Detroit from the rest of Michigan please. It’s barely hit anywhere else other than Detroit.”
Absolutely true which only underscores the point.
Sweden has Stockholm.
As for MI - the Detroit region is going to keep spreading it to you.
We just don't have the cultural reasons, the proximity, nor the lifestyle habits to make it boom like it did in Detroit.
We know so much more about how this transmits, and how to stop it.
Witless (governor) is a moron, I hope she gets the veep nod. She will have a wonderful target on her back with what she did during this time.
Maybe she's dynoman's wife.....
Yes, for an obvious reason. Can you answer?
******************************************
I see. You asked a question because you didn’t want to say that you didn’t know. Regarding my question in #69 above, do you have a conjecture or hypothesis of what those countries’ respective percentages of COVID-19 antibodies penetration may be?
Remember... Objectivity is the essence of intelligence.
And, no, I don’t know the percentage of antibody possession of those countries.
Please don’t interrupt the newfound conservative infatuation with Sweden with facts and logic.
