    Just take your hydroxychloroquine and you'll be fine for when the second wave hits. We have all seen how well you grasp science.

    Name me one time when cutting taxes on the wealthy ever helped an economy. Or when tariffs ever helped an economy. You are one of those types that thinks about the economy in completely backwards ways. You don't build a strong economy from the top down. You build it from the bottom up.

    Covid-19

    Everyone knows that covid isn't the most deadly thing out there.... but it spreads like wildfire and no one has immunity it. This is why we take these steps we do. You can get a huge death toll when things are left to spread unchecked. Hell parts of the US tried to take steps and it's still out of control. Bottom line, to hell with the selfish assholes who just want to get everyone sick and let fate decide if they're the unlucky ones who have to die. It is reprehensible behaviour honestly. Why risk lives when we don't need to?

    No there are lots of cases of young healthy people dying. Like everything the old and sick are the most vulnerable, but pretending that there aren't people outside those groups affected it simply pants on head ********.

    I think (tho I'm not 100% versed in this) that the difference is, Italy and Spain took it very seriously, but caught it too late and by that point, it was uncontainable. Brazil and the States just said "this is nothing...let 'er buck!" I know with Italy, for example, they didn't realize it was in the country until someone had died from it, and by that point, it's just way too late. They had government enforced lockdowns with police and army patroling the streets 24/7 to keep people in their homes. Bodies of all ages piling up in the morgues and makeshift morgues....

    Youngest age group? Talk about hedging. You said old people were dying. I said younger people die too. You called me a liar and then posted a link showing I was right. You’re really a piece of work.

    This is a much more contagious flu, with no vaccine. It's the level of contagion that really makes COVID scary. Because it is so contagious, that many more people can get it, increasing the risk of people getting severely ill and needing hospital care, which then has the potential to overwhelm the health care systems and causing more deaths. THAT is what the measures were put in place to prevent.

    Spanish flu killed 500,000 plus. Ten months. Covid over 100,000 in what 2-3 months with massive lockdowns and social distancing. The comparison is real.

    Here's another idea. Call it "a modest proposal". Let's just kill all the billionaires in the US and take their net worth and split it equally amongst every US citizen. No, hear me out. There are only 614 current billionaires in the US (see Forbes magazine for all numbers). That's a far sight less than 100,000. Their combined net worth is $2.9 trillion. Divide by the 328 million Americans (less the 614 of course) and you get $8,841 for each and every American citizen (not just the working ones - every single citizen left). The per capita disposable in the US is about $45,600. That of course includes the incomes of the billionaires, which skews the average up. Get rid of them, and the per capita income (before taxes) is about $36,700. So by giving the survivors a split of the billionaires' fortune, each person now has almost 3 months of income to put away. Lock down the country completely for that time so that the virus can't spread ans existing cases get isolated and treated. Eliminate all cases. And if anyone breaches the total lockdown, they get shot and killed by the government forces to prevent them from possibly spreading the virus. And we take their money too to split evenly amongst the rest. Kill the rich, eliminate the threat of the social distance deniers and call them collateral damage (or "the cost of doing business" if you will) and let the rest of us get on with it in 3 months' time. Sure, billionaires will die, including titans of industry, media moguls, celebrities, and a current sitting President, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. And for those who step outside to enjoy their personal freedoms in spite of the threat to everyone else, hey, it wasn't like you weren't warned. The threat must be eliminated. Hey, that's not being uncaring, that's just being practical.

    Yeah pal. You confirmed i was correct that younger people have died. Which you called a lie. You’re own link proves it. Look you can pretend covid isn’t happening because you’re an alt right (and everything that obviously goes with that) but your schtick is getting old.

    My experience has been that some get a real sense of joy with confrontation and feel they are winning when they think they are triggering others with aggressive and/or passive aggressive tactics. It’s how they are wired and how they have been conditioned over time. Self awareness is not their friend.

    There’s also that scenario that if it weren’t for all that spending, there would be less generations who would have to pay for it. Literally, I was posting this very thought..^
