Need to give her a tour of the homeless encampments around Los Angeles and ask her how many multiple of that she is good with.
In the case of Trump the statement is demonstrably false.
When you premise your propaganda on a lie, then it really isn't anything but fake news, and not a contribution to solving a serious, worldwide problem that is causing a lot of suffering.
How many deaths so far from regular flu that’s not being reported?
To a liberal, everything is about the extension of liberalism.
So, here’s the question for this one:
Who cares about liberalism when people are dying?
“What do you think the Russians talk about in their councils of state, Karl Marx? They get out their linear programming charts, statistical decision theories, minimax solutions, and compute the price-cost probabilities of their transactions and investments, just like we do.”
-Arthur Jensen (Network)
Communists spent most of the 20th century starving their citizens to death and otherwise murdering them. It seems like they are off to a good start in this century as well.
This headline should really read: “Who cares about people dying in a destroyed global economy when our ideological goals are coming to fruition?”
And what evidence is their that "small government offers no cure"? None whatsoever.
Actually, using her dollar metric, so far smaller governments seem to be doing a pretty good job. And the largest, and most intrusive of governments like the one in China are actually at least partially responsible for the problem existing in the first place.
When wealthy people are so concerned about the dangerous whatever that they stop caring about their wealth, then I’ll be more concerned too. Otherwise...dangerous whatever is maybe not so dangerous. If they can make money in the market, then I can too.
Full of BS
These people must think “stocks” are like doubloons that Uncle Scrooge has piled in his basement amidst the coins and jewels and bearer bonds and currency piles.
Hey. Stocks=Economy. Who cares if the entire world goes into a deep depression. Starvation, Disease, Pestilence, War. Aren’t there thousands of square miles of locusts swarming in Africa now?
Yup. The heck with “stocks,” Kate, you’re so woke!
Bull crap. Everything is an optimization problem with multiple aspects that have different cost factors. You cant ignore the nations economic security or other aspects for a single issue. You have to thread the needle so that the overall cost is minimized. That cost is spread over lives, economics, and other social factors of importance, like freedom.
“How many deaths so far from regular flu that’s not being reported?”
Actually I saw a report. Deaths worldwide this flu season estimated to hit 80,000.
So, meh.
Brilliant !
If I looked anything like her wouldn't take the dare.
Seeing people suffering in hospitals is unsettling, but seeing people starving to death all over a nation is much worse.
Keeping the world economy running is essential, because without it the level of suffering that will occur is much, much higher.
Is this an entry in that Purple Prose Contest?
Thank you for your merciful service!
“And for those redundant old folks who are watching the investment income they count on disappear. Please just die already.”

Lunatic. More people will die if the economy collapses. Death, disease, & misery.
