Coronavirus is one mutation away from infecting millions

[midnightpulp]

Also, how can any "conservative" argue against social safety nets after this? This pandemic should fully reveal the lie that is "bootstrapism." happens to people on an individual level all the time that throws them into massive debt and poverty. Now we're seeing that happens phenomenon on a nationwide scale. Countless small business will probably have to shutter. Unemployment will soar. The hospitality industries (food, hotels, etc) will basically crash for the next couple of years. And it was through no fault of these people. Yet the billionaire class will essentially see no lifestyle changes.

Hmm, maybe if we actually taxed the rich relative to their income and built up such a safety net over the past couple of decades (and cut defense spending), we could've thrown 20 trillion into the stimulus package instead of 2 trillion.

I can practically see Darrin crapping his pants after reading that, while I’m in the shadowy corner of the room watching.

No idea why democrats aren't running on replacing these heels in these courts. They never mention how republicans have hijacked the courts all teh way to the supreme court.

Maybe it's time to run on those issues..

Trump gets re-elected and the whole court system will be republican. How much longer can RBG hold out? Not long.

Do people with lupus dieing because if inability to get Hydroxychloroquine go on the COVID-19 death count or are they in a special category, Americans killed by Trump?

Eisenhower was the last pres. worth a . Warned us about the MiC. We didn't listen. Tried to implement universal healthcare. Was blocked. Since then, whether D or R, it's been constant overseas conflicts, whether Nam or the Middle East, destruction of the middle class, a disgusting rise in wealth inequality, a distrust of science and experts, a credulous acceptance of conspiracy theories, news media that is more concerned with entertainment and echo chambering than an impartial presentation of facts, and a huge rise in divorce rate, substance abuse, and mental illness.

Are you going to tell me these people aren't purposfully doing that? They are.

Why would republicans/conservatives be against min wage earners making more (you don't think it's re ed that some moron can make millions streaming Fortnite, while the grocers and fast food workers are literally risking health to keep society running?) and less reliance on foreign manufacturing (hasn't that been a "promise" of Lord Trump?).

But yeah, you'll never be on board with universal healthcare (yet you're on board with a universal national defense that costs trillions upon trillions upon trillions and has done little more than play cowboys and Indians with goat herders).

I agree with less reliance on other countries (especially China).

No, I don't think it's re ed that entertainers are able to make a lot of money. Highlighting a form of entertainment that on paper (and imo although I've consumed a fair share of it) seems absolute garbage doesn't change that.

They are risking their lives during a pandemic. Should they get a wage boost during the pandemic? That wouldn't be unreasonable.

Agreed, we should not be wasting money on pointless wars. We should have a strong national defense.

Actually without bull regulations such as building codes that require certain sqft housing and better decision making then most people would be prepared for things like this. This pandemic does reveal that people are not making great decisions and the government stands in the way of that in many occasions.

Maryland is considering leasing ice rinks to use as temporary morgues, part of its preparation for an increased number of coronavirus deaths. Officials stressed it would be a precautionary measure and no leases have been signed.

I'm sure they put the masks on just their mouths on purpose.

I just want these people to have more power.

I think it is re ed but I don't think it's unfair. Simply because there's nothing stopping anybody else from doing the same thing. Funny you mentioned fast food workers, I looked up some guy who became a Fortnite millionaire and he was literally doing fast food right before he became famous.

Does anyone think this virus was accidentally leaked out of Wuhan Ins ute of Virology? Possibly a researcher became infected? And, how wise is it to have a Biosafety level 4 lab in a city the size of Wuhan?

There is a CDC biosafety level 4 lab with lots of infectious viruses and other pathogens in Galveston, which could be wrecked by a hurricane at any time. And no, this was not accidentally leaked.
