Like hundreds of thousands of people across the world, the super-rich are preparing to self-isolate in the face of an escalation in the coronavirus crisis. But their plans extend far beyond stocking up on hand sanitiser and TV boxsets.

I agree 100%. These are the people we love to hire service workers from foreign countries who dont have the pernicious American belief in equality and who have a decided lack of deference to people like them. Now its biting them in the ass.
I am satisfied to go with the percentages. We are told day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year that some horrible calamity is going to befall us all. This is egged on by the media, and the Democrats especially are wishing with every fiber of their being for a disaster that can pin on President Trump.
Global Warming hasn't worked, Russian Collusion hasn't worked, and a bunch of other things haven't worked. More people in this country have died falling down in their bath tubs in the last month than have died from corona-virus. Yet the Democrats and the media have found something that is actually scaring people... they are going to milk it for all its worth. I worry about the damage they are doing to this country, not the virus. If you choose to get caught up in the hysteria that is your problem.
Ask the professionals and rich if they stocked up on grey poupon. Don’t forget the wagyu beef and sunblock.
Interesting...
I do recall within the last 2 years South Hampton residents building these bunkers to protect against gangs.
Hmmmmmmm.....
