Smaller grocery stores in my area are fully stocked with the exception of water and toilet paper. There are missing some cuts of meat.

It allows doctors and nurses not to work to exhaustion. It allows for the slight possibility of a ventilator if you get sick or maybe just a bed with care.

Nothing to me and my wife.

Preppers that talk like you do are typically like the neighbor who wants to show off their new shiny toy.

Much more respect for preppers who prep quietly and modestly.

LOL. Ignorance is not a desirable trait, but it can be cured.

I don't talk about preps except with family and a couple of close friends who prep.

We know you prep as you threw it out there.

Like I said, much more respect for preppers who do so quietly and modestly. We'll never agree on this, so nothing more to be said.

Well, the homeless dotting our street corners and pooping on the sidewalks will probably not “stay home”.... I am guessing the hookers, drug dealers and criminals will still be about their business as usual as well.

“No, it’s not like that everywhere. If it’s like that where YOU live, that’s a problem specific to your area.”

That statement will upset the pessimists because they want everyone to be as miserable as they are. Furthermore, you’re upsetting the survivalist orthodoxy that everyone and everything is the same everywhere.

Politicians don’t know what runs an economy.
But - IMHO - Trump comes pretty close.

I love to see him paling around with the movers and shakers in society outside government, giving them props. Comes Election season, when Biden complains that Trump was slow getting tests out for the virus - and simultaneously claims that the government should nationalize the health care industry - Trump will be ready.

Because in reality the bureaucracy was what SNAFU’ed the tests - and would still be dragging its feet if Trump were not promoting faster-responding labs not in government.

Governors and lower-level local officials should rule unless it is really critical.

Does it make sense to make the same rule for Alaska as it does for NY City????

A two week quarantine is not to stop CV, it is to slow it down so hospitals aren’t swamped. It gives them some time to catch up and get supplies so when you and your family gets sick, there might be beds and meds for them. If not, you can kiss the family breadwinner and little Suzie goodbye.

Do you read English much? Our shelves are full. So’s the ammo shed so dickheads on this site who itch for martial law can take a dirt nap.
