No bother, Vermont Lt. To be, or not to be over. The real question is government and propaganda vs the citizens.

Thanks very much for your work and effort to inform FReepers. It is much appreciated. “Governments” do have a history of lying to and murdering their own citizens. It’s just an opinion. Mine. I’ll take responsibility for my actions and opinions. I am very sorry if I offend anybody.

FReegards. What a Free Republic!

Nursing home my wife works at is shorthanded every Fri night. The young people call in “sick”. They just want the night off to party. My wife picks up their shifts all the time.

“Imagine being caught right now with 3 days food and $20 total available cash”

$4.94 - 10/lb bag of chicken quarters = 8 legs and 8 big thighs
$3.87 - 3 lb pork roast ($1.29/lb)
$2.24 - 5 lb rice
$1.98 - 2/lb beans
$1.78 - 2 lb pasta
$4.80 - 10 canned vegetables (.48 each)

Total = $19.61

Save the can liquid off the veggies, boil the meat bones, throw in the leftovers and you’ve got a pot of soup.

FOX was reporting last night the government got a contract with someone to start cranking out masks in the US. Hope it that TX company someone posted about a day or two ago.

Tests pending is how we got another case or so from the Princess. Now, in San Antonio. The CDC is as incompetent as ever.

“worked at same restaurant”

Let me guess, they’ll never publish which restaurant.

“They” is the CDC which means us taxpayers. We’re also probably the ones having to pay to get the mall and hotel cleaned.

Just an anecdotal observance from the Twin Cities...

This morning on the express bus to downtown Minneapolis, I saw a guy wearing a mask. It looks like one of those surgical masks. He was a white guy perhaps in his early to mid 60’s.

Not sure if he was being overly cautious or perhaps he had a suppressed immune system and was thing “Better safe than sorry”. Maybe he works with a lot of Asian people at his job.

But other than seeing some shelves at my local Target looking a bit picked over (Clorox, disinfecting wipes, etc), this is the first really tangible evidence I’ve seen of anything happening here.

And 3 days later for everyone they infected. And a few days later for those the following group infected. Rinse and repeat.

One week ago today I saw a woman at my local Safeway wearing a mask, which I thought was weird since I live in the mountains. HOWEVER, just yesterday we had a confirmed case a little over an hour away from here.

I came across a website called "MCM Network (Make News Meaningful")

I never heard of them, couldn't find out anything about them...but their lead article claimed that the Pope and a couple of his assistants have Coronavirus and are confined under quarantine in Rome..

Anybody know anything about this? Is this a Fake News internet outfit?

yes. the potential long-term impacts are beginning to sink in. also throw in decent odds a major war starts at some point in coming years. this is an extraordinarily destabilizing event.

i have not seen a coherent argument AGAINST annual epidemic from this, which is so bad it will by definition change our country and society into something directly out of post-apocalyptic fiction.
