Yep - and all those who bought into the full panic mode helped insure we are where we are - teetering on recession with a potential depression peeking around the corner...
Funny how a bit of perceived personal risk changes the folks from FReedom loving Constitutionalists to those begging for slavery...if we had the same mix during the Revolution, WWI or WWII, our nation wouldn't exist.

The Wu Flu Panic is just the latest proof that we went from the Greatest Generation to the Greediest Generation.

so very true. astounding what we’re seeing, even out of perceived conservatives. This is the hoax of all hoaxes and so many fell for it. Trump’s initial instinct, that it was a hoax, was right on the money. Then he got steamrolled. And I would bet big money Ivanka is one of them behind it.

That's it in a nutshell. The number of my acquaintances who have come out demanding that the government protect them from people who dare to leave their houses is shocking, frankly.
