Did you get one of these?

Just about every state governor shut their state down. But even if they hadn’t, we’d be in the same situation. Few people are going to go out to eat, travel, go to movie, if their is a highly contagious virus prevalent. That is what Trump and his supporters don’t understand. Until people feel safe they are going to stay inside.

Complete and total waste of time and abuse of the cell phone emergency alert
Neither me or the Doctor I was in with read it once we realized it wasn’t an amber alert.
I find it interesting that libs demand that everyone wear a mask to avoid spreading COVID, but don’t demand that people take birth control precautions before a woman gets pregnant.

Because that is how you minimize a highly contagious virus from spreading and overwhelming hospitals and killing massive amounts of people.

That’s not what I asked.
Which party supported and supports shutting down? The Democrat Party. And Joe Biden is the Democrat Party. So if he gets blamed for it, the blame is appropriate.
And you know it.

People just aren’t going to do that.

The economy would have sucked whether or not there were shutdowns. Look at the OpenTable statistics for restaurant attendance before any states had shutdown.

If it takes that long when will Trump quit lying about it? It sounds like his project lightspeed is project cut corners.

I’m truly glad we could agree. There is a difference between natural causes and murder. Coal, oil & gas, bars.
The government should not be in the murder business.
It doesn’t exist among libs.

If we don’t open up there’s a good argument that homelessness which contributes to malnutrition and disease might become the #1 cause of death.

I’d be interested to see that data
From the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 site the total is now 229,544.

I am referring to the millions who are on mortgage forbearance and renters protected from being evicted. What happens when these programs come to and end? The banks are not going to do this forever and many of the rentals are by people who just have 1-2 properties and now they have seen their money dry up they were using to live on or to pay for another home.
Because they sure as hell didn’t cancel property taxes.
I most assuredly did not. It was an extrapolation of what the potential could be with a rate of 2.4% for the entire USA population. There have been several posts from me quoting the totals from the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 site particularly in the topic comparing the USA with other parts of the world.
The CDC infection fatality ratio at cdc.gov
0-19…0.00003%
20=49…0.0002%
50-69…0.005%
70 + …0.054%
The survival rate for the over 70’s is now better then 98% based on knowledge of the virus and the successful therapeutics. What is hard to understand about that?
The science is telling us that we have a handle on covid with a vaccine right around the corner. 
So how much credibility does Biden and the rest of the Dems and MSM have with their constant covid fear mongering, asinine lock downs and mask mandates? Not a bit, IMO!
