I expect this will lead to a full-scale political crisis in America some time in mid to late April.


The economy will never be able to continue its path until April. The stock market will be under 10,000 and many companies will be defaulting.

This is the story of the little boy who rang a bell in the city center. When asked why, he said to keep away the elephants. When told there are no elephants, he said, “See? It works!”

This is the communist using this “crisis” to implement communism, to keep the elephant virus away by ringing the communist bell of handing everything over to the government.

Phase 1 was gaslighting the sheeple into thinking they will die without government intervention.

Phase 2 is control the people and shutdown of their businesses.

Phase 3 is government providing payment for business rents and payroll.

Phase 4 is the government simply stating that since the government already pays for everything that the government now owns the businesses.

Communism complete: Total control of the sheeple and a complete takeover of commerce.

The liberal States of Washington, Pennsylvania, California, Colorado, and New Jersey have implemented martial law, selecting which businesses must close and that the people must stay indoors. This isn’t a quarantine; this is martial law. Just because the communists are using the virus as an excuse doesn’t mean it is not martial law. When the government can tell you to stay home, implement curfews, and shut down businesses, it is martial law. Trump is in on this communist takeover. He is encouraging States to go into martial law and shut down businesses and lock everyone into their homes.

To get the people’s cooperation, the government is buying their cooperation. Each adult gets $1,000; $2,000 per couple but only if they make under $150k. Great, huh? Get taxed to give other people free money. Colorado is giving people a pass on parking tickets as though people can no longer seem to properly park.

Just as we were moving manufacturing back to America, the communists are closing those businesses making us rely on foreign imports again. Since Trump has surrounded himself with the communist healthcare workers, he is pushing the narrative and supporting “free” money which means both conservatives and liberals, alike, support him and this effort to take over the country by the communists.

We are past the tipping point. Americans are fully endorsing any and all measures. They actually want more closures. The drama queens are begging to have all their liberties taken away in the name of safety. They are begging for their businesses to close, thinking somehow Uncle Sugar will hand them money to live on instead of having to work.

For those of us not so stupid as to fall for this communism propaganda, we have the right to take on jobs and visit businesses of our own free will. This is the liberals taking away our right to choose.

The WHO estimates between 250,000 and 500,000 die worldwide from the flu. China had 81,000 infected of a population of 1.4 billion and have now lifted their quarantines and claim to have no new cases. South Korea with 8,600 cases likewise has seen a tremendous drop in new cases.

This virus so far is the typical flu level symptoms and treatment. Nothing to be taken lightly, but nothing to go and shut down the country for either.

Hillary only needs to wait until the July democrap convention to show up and say, “See? I told you Trump would screw things up! I’m here to save you from that idiot!” She has been preparing to enter the race (notice new face lift, makeup, hair, clothing), and she can win when 30+% of the country is unemployed, a million small businesses have been closed by government dictators, the people are living under martial law and cannot travel, and basic necessities are no longer found and people are wiping their butts with anything they can find.

Anyone feel stupid yet?

Prior to going to WV, I was up io my dad’s family turf, Big Cove Tannery, PA.

Seriously rural mountains.

The guy who worked on my car said his wife saw county sheriffs running off people who were trying to go to church.

This will not last much longer there.

After a few of these tyrants are killed off I think their weak hands will have played out and they’ll quit. But it is going to take that.

Your post is spot on.

Notice that -- by far -- the most stringent measures have been enacted by rat governors. They are TRYING to crash the economy.

“the most stringent measures have been enacted by rat governors. They are TRYING to crash the economy.”

Yes! Thank you for noticing! Primarily the Rat politicians are overreacting and pushing for communism by calling for the “control of production”, the very definition of communism.

Never had auto-correct screw with you?

11 years doesn't seem to be so much of a newbie either - starting to sound like one of them liberal colleges where all forms of thought are oh-so-not-welcome around here...because of some of the same folks who would slam them for not tolerating another's input....

Ignore asshats who think 11 years makes you a newbie - we have all kinds here and many have lost their friggin' minds these days...

I've gotten dinged for my own 2 cents worth over the last month:

“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.” ― William Pitt the Younger

Kind of ironic - we know that the Deep State and others use fear as a way to steer and control the people - we had the commie/nuke war threat until the Berlin Wall came down then it wasn’t viable anymore and up pops Globull Warming, which has many in fear that we’re gonna destroy the Earth even as we do less harm than past generations and none of the data actually supports anything but the earth’s climate and Mother Nature do not now, and never did have a “balance” and even if they did, we have no idea of how to maintain one or ‘fix’ things...all our efforts end up causing more harm....the coronavirus scare is no different - the panic-induced knee-jerking will cause more harm than the virus.

Folks who would be up in arms if the government decided to tell them they could not move freely are now begging that same government to lock them, and everyone else, down....I’d wager if, after doing that, the story ‘evolved” they would also go meekly to barb-wire surrounded camps/tent cities because the “latest info” said that’s the only way to stop it. Even though we know that they use fear to guide and control us, so many can’t see it through the red haze of insane panic....they not only welcome the government controls, they beg for them...

And the fear mongers will try to leverage it...

Reminds me of a saying that many FReepers, who are now acting insane, used to showcase:

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” Ben Franklin

What are you going on about? I was just having a little fun over a misspelling. A tried and true FR tradition.

Uhhhhh. Yes. That was the whole point. It is what people who were born with a sense of humor call a joke.

Oh. One other thing. By virtue of the fact that he felt the need to aks for gentileness, indicates he or she was aware that there are asshats out there ready to pounce at the slightest opportunity. So, lighten up, eh, Snowflake?

The "newbie" statement tagged on to the terminology error, caught my eye - and if the spelling is worth commenting on, perhaps the rest of the words might also rate a thumbs up or down...

Don't know about you, but many here will go nuts over a headline w/o reading any of the story.

I'm the king of that.

But it's funny how often the content of the story doesn't bear any resemblance to the headline. Sometimes they're a hook to get you to read the story. I spit the hook out.
