chinese do it now
why cant we?
sure kids will be a problem but teres nothing we can do about that.
rapid tests, temperature sensors at all cafes, retaurants, clubs
and all will be working through social mobile apps
if someone that visited your favorite restaurant is infected everyone will know the date place and time
you will know the exact temperature of the cook that cooked your food and the server who served it(if we get that far)
its a new world ma nig. better embrace it and you will be ahead of the pack otherwise you will get left behind
its time for americans to realize life will not be back to normal for a minimum 18 months
face it accept it and make plans to enjoy it best you can
I'm just hoping they open up non emergency medical services here in canada. I wanna have kids soon with fiance, inshallah. :lol...So ultrasound, blood testing etc.Quote:

So at this point, they take to twitter activism and start posting Don't Tread on Me pictures and talking about "Big Brother."Quote:

Um, your fuckin' forefathers did CEDE SOME OF THEIR RIGHTS to the government when a common enemy needed to be fought. Let's start with World War I.
^Now I'm completely against that draft, since I don't think any foreign power during World War I was a threat to the US. World War I was mainly a European problem, but it illustrates how the government has suspended "freedom" in order to "force" people to act against a common threat, whether real or perceived.Quote:
The Draft in World War 1. When our nation got involved in the First World War, we quickly realized that relying chiefly on voluntary enlistment wouldn’t cut it. We needed to raise more manpower in order to have enough men to fight. In reaction to this need, President Woodrow Wilson and Congress passed the Selective Service Act in 1917.
Let's look at the Spanish Flu of 1918. Restaurants, churches, theaters were closed up for a year, and in many cities it was illegal to go outside without a mask.
World War II. Americans were forced to fight against a common enemy that was certainly a threat to the entire world. So in this instance, we could argue it was justified to "force people to fight." I'll still never be comfortable with the idea of a draft, but I can see the argument.
The Red Scare in post-War America. An untold amount of Americans had their reputations and livelihoods destroyed for merely being suspected as communist sympathizers. This Red Scare mentality led to Americans being drafted in the Korean and Vietnam wars to prevent the domino theory from happening.
Since these events, Americans haven't been "forced" to do anything, which is why the Vietnam generation is the last generation to have been forced into collective action against a real or perceived threat. Gen-X and younger have basically lived the "fat and happy" life their entire lives and now can't handle the prospect of suspending some "liberty" for safety in the short term, as pretty much all American generations have done at one time or another.
And are we asked to go abroad and fight in a war? No. We're basically asked to sit on asses for awhile (and it might not even be a year). And we're too spoiled to even do that.
It wasn't for that choir in Washington where lots of people got COVID-19 from airborne spread.Quote:

It is would be hilarious if it were in a movie. It is not, and it is not.
The mask is only really useful to collect your droplets so you don't unknowingly infect people as an asymptomatic carrier. It's not much protection against other peoples' droplets unless you have an N95. And I still see so many people out without masks. It pisses me off so much because I'm wearing one to protect them every time I go out and I should be afforded the same courtesy. I hate wearing them because they're hot and they fog up my glasses but I don't want people getting sick from me when I could be an asymptomatic carrier and not know it.Quote:

I was so pissed I wanted to tell to shut his mouth when I'm walking by but figured I'd get one of those angry boomer yelling rants full of droplets if I did say anything.Quote:
