How Long Will Americans Tolerate Corona-Madness?
American Thinker.com ^ | March 19, 2020 | Lloyd Marcus

Posted on 03/19/2020 9:45:14 AM PDT by Kaslin

A usually level-headed Christian conservative lashed out on Facebook, scolding everyone they thought was not taking the coronavirus seriously enough. Fake news media has successfully infected many with irrational fear.

Hearing Gov. Larry Hogan on my car radio announcing his executive order to close bars, restaurants, gyms, and theaters sounded like the script of a 1950s horror movie. “We will stop the spread of this deadly disease!” dramatically proclaimed Hogan. Litle more than 100 have died in the U.S. and under 9,000 worldwide. According to the CDC, during the 2018-2019 flu season, an estimated 16.5 million people got sick and 34,000 died in the U.S.

When Hogan mentioned plans to restrict church gatherings, a chill went up my spine. In the United States of America, government is mandating that people not attend church. Wow!

CDC data confirms that the martial-law-light mandates steamrolling across America are disproportionate to the threat of the virus. Some governors and most corporations are responding to media-mob pressure to halt life in America. Others see an opportunity to land a death-blow to the Trump administration.

Insidiously ignoring the CDC's no-need-to-panic-data, fake news media created and is gleefully fueling corona-madness. Using their huge bully pulpit, fake news media says anyone who dares to contradict their you're-all-gonna-die narrative will be dragged into the high tech public square, stripped naked, branded an irresponsible idiot with a hot iron and their career will be canceled.

If this keeps up into tick season the next panic will be over Corona and Lyme.

The new deaths by day recently, 7, 11, 17, 26, 35. Doubling every two days. By the end of next week we will reach 800. In a day. Two days later it will be 1600.

It is already happening.

They will have to send out the military to enforce their bull shit and when that happens..

Right now it is mostly voluntary.

A majority of Americans will tolerate it, especially if they keep tossing $1,000 per person every month or so.

Coronavirus VS the Flu

Worked out this forecast earlier today.

March 19, 2020
Data from Google

Population of USA 327.2 million people
Population of Italy 60.5 million people

The USA is 5.4 Times Larger in population

Italian Coronavirus Cases 35,713
Italian Coronavirus Deaths 2,978

Assuming that the US healthcare system
is the equivalent of the Italian system. Ha Ha

Projected
USA Coronavirus Cases 192,850
USA Coronavirus Deaths 16,081

CDC estimates that in the 2019-2020 FLU season
22,000 - 55000 USA deaths will occur due to the FLU

The Media and the Politicians are tearing up our economy
and civil rights over something less than the
Flu that happens each year.

We’ve groomed a society full of little snowflakes. Keep them scared and this can go on for a very long time.

I am so stealing that! That’s some funny stuff.

Remember - this really went into effect after the weekend...everyday billions and billions of dollars of trade, job wages, etc...is going down the toilet. After this weekend I think people are going to collectively start pushing back.

Add two more weeks at $1000.00 per person.

If this goes on until summer, as some are predicting, there will be riots in the cities.

Within a few months, all of humanity will be dead. Math is awesome, isn’t it?
