So we focus on that class, mainly the aged (I am almost 68) and infirm and do the mask route for the rest as the go about their business, in the interest of the long term.
On the other hand, this crisis bolsters Trump's arguments for protected borders and bringing manufacturing back to the U.S., for example.
Consider the paradox. Conservative argue for border restrictions due to criminals and un vetted persons causing bodily harm, spreading disease and or burdening the system, while liberals espouse open borders, and protest the separation of children from parents who are caught illegally entering the country, and attack the President for now helping the most vulnerable.
But liberals do not favor allowing open "freedom of entry" into society of the most vulnerable if "border control" wants to kill them, that is via abortion, and justify such "terminations" by arguing such would be an unnecessary and unwelcome burden.
And when Americans foreigners do present a danger to society (if infected with a disease an est. 80% recover from without medical help) then they quarantine households, shutdown entire cities.
So we focus on that class, mainly the aged (I am almost 68) and infirm and do the mask route for the rest as the go about their business, in the interest of the long term.
People in their 40's and 50's are dying, too. In any case, whatever the country decides to do, I'm staying home (as long as possible).
Trump is saying we'll see where we stand in another week or so. Maybe then the states will ease up on their lockdowns.
