Well now, this is part of the hospital system I used to work at. One of the smaller community hospitals that was bought up by Sentara. More tards. Some of the ICU nurses that work there have been picking up at my hospital.

I'm just messing with you. Sipping some gin and come across it.

It's way better than the others in full PPE outside.

Abortion Funding, Surveillance, Mail-in Voting: Progressives Unveil Wish List for Next Coronavirus Stimulus Bill

Increased abortion funding. Stimulus checks for illegals. Permanent housing guarantees. Mail-in voting for elections. Minimum wage hikes and more union access. The large-scale release of imprisoned criminals. An extensive national disease surveillance program.

These are just some of the far-left, Big Government proposals being peddled by influential progressive organizations for Democrats to include in the next round of emergency stimulus funding, which the groups say should be at least as large as the $2.2 trillion CARES Act.

The Center for American Progress (CAP), which functions as an idea factory for the Democratic Party, compiled its wish list for the next round of recovery legislation during the Chinese coronavirus crisis.

The CAP recommends the construction of a robust surveillance program, including the following (below are direct quotes from the CAP plan):

    • Surveillance testing (including training volunteers) and to build tracing teams.
    • App development (or funding for state licensing of the technology if privately developed) that will be necessary for instantaneous contact tracing.
    • Additional funding for developing a national disease surveillance program going forward.
CAP wants to use the pandemic to fundamentally transform the voting system, requiring all states to “significantly expand vote-by-mail opportunities; implement at least 14 days of early voting; adopt online and same day voter registration.”

Here, CAP, which is funded by billionaire activist George Soros, joins a slew of other Soros-funded progressive groups seeking the expanded use of mail-in balloting for elections by citing fears that coronavirus makes it too dangerous to vote in person.

These packages shouldn't be about progressing but maintaining what is taking the hits. I hate politicians.

Some people are nuts. I have a neighbor. She sells high end steaks to high end restaurants. Obviously they have taken a hit. So she emails out to the neighborhood fantastic deals on steaks. I bought some. She sold almost $10,000 worth of product in our neighborhood alone. Probably saved her job she says. We went to go pick it up yesterday. Our time slot for pickup was 3:30. Showed up, paid, and walked away. Some dbag neighbor tried to shame neighbors on Facebook for participating. Never more then 10 people at any point, which is our governors recommendation, and far safer then being at a grocery store.

Is the dbag neighbors name Karen?

This country is more and more starting to resemble a Chinese technocracy. They're already tracking smartphone movements. Kushner is pushing for a database to track individual coronavirus cases and what people with coronavirus patients are doing or where they are going. Crackdowns on worship services. People getting arrested for surfing. Government forcibly shutting down businesses and charging businesses who don't.

It's easy to give people rights when things are going well. When things get tough, we should still have constitutional rights. Why even have a Bill of Rights if hard times gives the government justification to violate and trample all over it?

And none of what you just said is the fault of Trump or his administration, right?

We have Nextdoor which is made for passive aggressive Karens to complain about those around them. One woman posted recently that while walking she saw a house with six(!) cars in the driveway and she could hear laughter from the backyard so she knew an illicit party was being thrown. I don’t know how she knew more than ten people were there with only six cars. She reminded everyone of the very important rules. One guy responded that his family has six cars and laughing is how they enjoy themselves.

I do blame Jared for pushing such an intrusive government program.

Can you bring yourself to blame the Trump administration, and by extension the dude that set this policy, Donald Trump, for doing the exact thing you oppose, which I will quote now:

Think about how many schools have milk contracts that they’ve stopped. And that milk isn’t being bought at the store now. But you still have to milk the cows.

Schools are still using milk because they’re providing free meals.

I’ve got a grandkid staying with me and I pick up her bag at the bus stop every morning of breakfast and lunch, it’s got a pint of white milk, a half pint of chocolate milk and orange juice in it with the food. My neighbor has 4 kids in school so she gets 4 of the same bags every morning.

Last I checked, neither Trump nor his administration has issued an enforced "stay-at-home" order banning everything. It's the tyrannical state governors doing so.
