“ take care of you”
Snort
Thats not how this works. Thats now how any of this works.
Essential industries already are “ taking care of people”
When kids start dying we’ll see how noble sacrifice for commercialism seems. We don’t even know yet what damage this virus leaves on the “recovered” or what happens on the 2d or 3d phase. But yeah, lets get the restaurants, clubs, tanning salons and malls open and let the WuFlu burn through the young and invincible rather than take a month off
No this isn’t how it works
The economy is all interrelated. If we are not paying in,
Not paying taxes, utilizing benefits like unemployment and food stamps and welfare, not producing, not paying our health premiums...
The health system gets destroyed. Impoverished. Venezuela style.
We need to work. We don’t have slaves here. People in the health care industry from the doctors to the janitors to the clerks to the drug manufacturers to delivery to food service to laundry to insurance to HR need to be paid. Paying people takes money.
Our work pays for the the health care of those who need it.
"Sometimes the truth is difficult, even impossible, to comprehend and even harder to accept. The liberal noise is so loud; has so cluttered the conscious canvas, that it is difficult to see the true picture. The INDIVIDUAL and his rights must be supreme." Cannoneer 2/23/2013
Suicide is a choice. I consider it murder.
I think it’s a desperately weak argument.
So was stopping the economy. So are smoking, overeating, poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle. Based on those choices, lets get everyone back to work and let Covid run it's course. Then we won't not make ventilators available to people with COPD, obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart disease. When they complain we'll say, well it was your choice.
