It begins?

Barely a difference between FR and when the MSM finds a dead homeless person on the street and blames it on the the nearest Republican.

As long as the blood can be wiped up in a shirt and flung around, there will be sick people on both sides busily looking for some.

Thousands of places hiring with signing bonuses.

You off yourself because you got laid-off = you get no sympathy from me.

Jobless clams will be huge, but millions more are expected from the ‘earthquake shaking the whole country’
PUBLISHED WED, APR 1 20205:31 PM EDTUPDATED AN HOUR AGO
Patti Domm

Economists say millions filed for jobless claims for the week ending March 28, but many more millions are still expected in the weeks to come.
Many economists expect the claims to be about 4 million to 5 million when data on unemployment benefits is released Thursday at 8:30 a.m. ET.
Friday’s March jobs report would normally be given more weight by the market, but the government conducted its survey for the data in the middle of the month, too soon for the biggest impact from the coronavirus shutdowns.
Still, economists expect April’s monthly report to show the loss of millions of workers, and the total of job losses could be double those in the financial crisis but over a much shorter period.

Not everyone you talk to who claims they are God, is God.

Good point to ponder when they start talking about you murdering people and committing suicide.

This needs to up your own security levels at least two notches.

They can snap anytime and you may be around them when they do.

I have no idea how the banks survive. When housing crashed last time that almost did it. That was 1 sector out of 11 and all 11 have fallen off a cliff. There isn’t enough money in the world. This will be a restructuring of the economic model of the world. Capitalism is in trouble here, and this started in China. Two facts that are not in dispute. The virus may be a bio weapon. That is on open question. Whatever it was, it killed the world economy. Its dead, it just doesn’t know it. The virus will be gone, but the economy will still be dead. As they say “The economy isn’t like a piece of meat you can put in the freezer for 2 months and then take out.” it’s more like a human you can put under water for a minute. Do it for 10 minutes and its game over.

And then there are pictures of the Depression where families hung together to survive.

Yes.
But it took a terrible toll on society. and families
Some economists are forecasting even worse unemployment rates than in the great depression, if these lock-downs go on much longer. And all for what?

What give you that idea? But to answer your question, no I do not. He is all we have. Once he is gone, it will be them and us. I have been following the reporting on this virus since it was in China and other places. President Trump was on to it.When Nancy was handing out Impeachment pens, President Trump was appointing a Commission to combat the virus. Yet , according to the media and Democrat politicians, he has done nothing. Every question and comment by the media has been designed to discredit President Trump and drive a wedge between him and the public.

If obama was still in the White House or Hillary Clinton was in the White House, the public would not know that there was a virus. Because there would not be a peep from the media. They may have reported locally that people seemed to be dying from some unknown illness, but there was nothing to worry about.

Nah, you got it all wrong, man! Don’t you know that we’re “just staying home for a few weeks”? C’mon, it’s nothing. It’s for the GOOD of everyone. /s

It is maddening. I don't even listen to the news anymore. I read the news and there are 4 shows I listen to when I can. Rush & Chris Plante for national news and then Jamie Allman/St. Louis...he's on the internet and then a local station KLPW, covers my geographical area.

No I asked you that because when I read your comment on #28, it said it was a reply to #20 and that's why I asked.
