Bannon highlighted that we ate about to spend ten percent of GNP to deal with the virus and economic issues. How can we do so and survive? Is this really needed?

We can survive because of the plans driven by our stable genius president. It is a serious concern with any other ungodly man's hands running the show.

One thing I would love to see resulting from this ridiculous TP panic is for more Americans to conclude they need to stop living in debt. Choices need to be made to stay prepared, avoid living by those danged plastic rectangles. Choose a home you can afford and hope to have paid off well before retirement. Save money and pay cash for vehicles instead of paying the bank 3x the price. With better personal money management the vast majority of working Americans would not be dependent on Congress to settle on an immediate handout. /soapbox

I had to have that discussion with my granddaughter last week so it's on my mind.

The questions that needs be asked:

1. During the Cold War, a great deal of federal money was constantly spent to ensure our hospitals were ready and able for any biological or chem attack. Where was all that money actually spent?

2. After 9/11, the same.

3. After each of the previous “pandemic flu” outbreaks, the same.

Obviously, none of it was actually spent by hospitals to ensure they were pandemic ready.

Your soapbox rant was excellent.
