Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

Just 2 weeks, as of now. Obviously that is dependent on so many other things.

I'm salary, so I'm not laid off. But who knows what is on the other side of all this ignorance in 2 weeks.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully this madness wont last much longer.

Do y’all think this includes remodeling as well or just new construction?

Since the police or anyone else isn't going to start pulling people over to check where they are going, you'll be good.

Va schools are closed for the remainder of the year

I think Georgia schools have also because the school system(Cobb County Georgia Schools) that my nephews go to had called off the school year two weeks ago.

Me too. The hourly people in this economy are facing a beatdown. The salaried middle class know they aren't very far ahead of the monster either.

Update on Tennessee COVID numbers

I'm as anti-welfare as they come, and if I were ever president I would take industrial grade garden shears to that budget on the first day.

However...

This isn't welfare. Paying someone who cannot support themselves is quite different when it was the government that literally forced them to be fired. If they can't even provide help to those people, then fine. The only moral thing to do is end the quarantine right damn now.

I’m fine with a 2-3 week quarantine in the interest of public safety, but not much more than that. Everything else in your post is spot on.

Thankfully it hasn't touche us yet. But just here in Gallatin there have been 300-500 people laid off that I know of and I'm sure there are more to come.

What’s the division in the Coronavirus Stimulus plan?!

That’s a pretty solid summary statement. I hate what this will do to the Fed balance sheet. But none of the companies or the employees want this situation to occur. The government forced this upon both. It’s pretty clear there is some liability here I’d guess

The question was in the context of airlines, but I did not hear him limit it to them. Makes no sense.

If companies are going to be given hundreds of billions of dollars the money needs to be used to maintain the business long enough to overcome the virus. That's it. Pay your employees, keep your infrastructure in place and in working order.

Anything other than that the money is wasted.

Reasonable.

God it hurt to say that

Get the relief package done.

To the Republicans:
No stock buybacks
No C-Suite raises

To the Democrats:
No infrastructure or unions
No environmental regs
And for the Love Of God - leave PP out of it

Coronavirus initiatives only. Get it done.

He's right.

California police to use Chinese-made patrol drones with night-vision cameras during coronavirus lockdown

I think every drone I've flown has been Chinese-made... not sure there is any other type other than military.. Kinda sad.

Looks like you've gained weight.

GA has not closed k-12 for the year. Our district is just closed through March 31st as of now.
Cobb County closed until further notice.

Teenagers might not know much but most know how to open a bedroom window.

Valid point.

I'm even smarter. My 17 year old is on 2nd floor, on the high side. And we are in BFE in the county, so anyone sneaking in would have to pull up in drive. Other parents may not have the luxury.

 

[evillawyer]

Uhhh, why not? Seems like something absolutely nobody needs.

 

[volfanjustin]

Virginia has 2 also, not mandating anything that extreme yet.

I heard ole black faced went full tyrant for a 30 day shutdown, that true?

Because they employ people, are good for the economy, and they pay taxes?

With Mayoral EO, Chattanooga businesses have been shut down and all public gatherings ordered to halt, including worship services, etc.

Pfff who needs that, didn't you know money grows on trees
