Mine too, but if they were living, the last thing I'd do is roll them into a church on Easter. They wouldn't have been in that much of a hurry to see God.

I wouldn't either, I fully agree older people and sick people should stay home but the rest of us should be free to go grab a beer and burger at our local bar

Yes, that's what I'd do. I'd STFU and defer medical questions that weren't real estate agents turned tv reality stars.

You know what I mean.

That's what you would do if you were him but you are not. Instead "Trump said . . ." gives you ample ammunition to post here, demonstrating your sardonic wit. If he stfu, you would just have us to poke fun at. Target rich I know, but the biggest target and supplier of ammunition, would be removed.

Except you dont know about COVID-19 at the level his briefings are, you have no idea what labs are doing or even the quality of the testing and people who specialize in this are communicating to Trump. He has significantly better sources than you on this virus and what's being done for it. So sounds like you should "stfu" too. He also hasnt promised a vaccine in an unattainable time frame.

Truthfully dude, I don't think trump canspell "CDC" so I'm fairly certain he's never been to the website for qualified info, he is likely busy doodling on post-it notes during the briefings and couldn't articulate the difference between bacteria and a virus if the nations life depended on it. I have little doubt that the people who are telling Trump what's what are insanely qualified, my issue is that they are talking to an imbecile whose only goal is to remain in power. Again, I have a background in healthcare, but one should need that to know they shouldn't take medical advice on treatment from a qualified healthcare professional.

I can't disagree with much of that.

I'm challenged to see the issue with these statements. Let's go back a few years. When ACA / Obamacare was in hot discussion, there were a lot of unknowns about the final law. Some debate was centered around how other countries approach socialized medical care. Some of those countries have to make decisions to ration care. Older folks can be/are denied certain procedures due to relative life expectancy versus expense to the system. Death panels were also debated (to jog your memory).

If grandparents were fated for premature death or discomfort to not drain the economy of socialized medicine and that was just or noble, why is it outrageous for folks to claim grandparents fated for premature death or discomfort to not drain the economy of an entire country/world?

Still happening around here, at least the burger part, although almost everyone is having their conversations from a car-length away, and packing disinfectants. I carry IPA in a spray bottle and try to be responsible by spraying my cash and hands before and after making a transaction. I do cash, because I know these businesses need it. It's a risk in itself though.

When we have the goods to do these things responsibly, I say proceed with caution. But we just don't, at this point.

If it came down to me risking infection or my granddaughter starving, guess what I’m going to do.
