President Trump understands that America's productive engine needs to be switched on as soon as possible. That will help, but the debt explosion and the increasing dependence on government are much more dangerous to our Republic than the Wuhan virus.
My observation is that this is over after the peak in April. But Drudge and others will continue to push the fear headlines. Like US tops China. Troops are infected. So people are going to be in denial and pushing the fear for a little while yet.
America’s biggest problem is the political left.
Period.

In the last 1.5 hours I’ve gone by two large local hospitals emergency rooms in Houston. Nothing is going on. Empty.
Democrats ,all of them are the biggest problem
Maybe a good outcome from the pandemic will be that young people will come to understand that wealth does not equal money. Having a million dollars is worthless if there is nothing to buy.
I do see plenty of businesses coming up with alternative ways to function. For example, I am getting emails about crafts to do at home, from stores offering a service where you can order materials from the craft store, go to the store and call them and they will put your purchase right in the trunk, no human contact required. Our local vet has a similar arrangement, where staff will go to your car and get your pet for its exam, rather than having you come in and encounter other people. Etc. The longer this goes on, the more ways people will find to adapt.
Since this is a cold virus, the numbers might start to drop as we approach summer. However, the Southern Hemisphere is entering winter, creating the ideal environment for the pandemic to propagate. Research is on-going; hopefully by the time next winter rolls around, we'll have some effective treatments.
Excellent article!
Thanks for posting.
Absolutely right! Well said! Too bad the folks out there would never understand it.
No one is asking where the money is coming from or how it will impact the economy. It scares me. When the federal government collapses who can we turn to then?
