I said 100,000 by Monday. But it actually happened within minutes.

I pulled money out of the bank and filled the car and cans with gas today. People are getting tense and edgy as this trap closes on us. Hope they wake up and realize we are gonna eachother before desperation starts setting in. Keep waving and saying hello.

A paltry $1200 check is all it takes for the masses to be pacified while $1 trillion+ goes to real estate developers and others that are using this to fill their pockets with treasure. It's disgusting.

Sadly it is less than most will be paying additionally due to 2019 tax code changes.

They look like the population density or economic activity graph maps I remember from school. All that is missing are the labels in German.

All that is missing is megatons, they look like targeting diagrams they showed us in Elementary School.
Resistance is futile, don't have to duck and cover. Sound familiar?

They called them fallout maps here. Useless now. The entire planet would be subjected to fall out today.

Lets hope not. Its was similar shenanigans pulled by these characters in the aftermath of 2008. The trillions spent to prop up banks and corporations was one of the main drivers for the rise of movements like the tea-party and occupy. And i think it can be argued it also played in a hand giving us Trump. These fuckers dont seem to understand the kind of fire they are playing with. Americans arent that kind of stupid. I suspect we can expect a rise of both left and right populist movement in the next few years. Americans will recognize the looting taking place.

Edit. Ooops , i did it again, sorry, forgot no politics, won't happen again.

You mean you're not acting like these idiots on spring break a week or so ago? They were laughing about it as if it was a joke. Facebook, Instagram, youtube influencers, reality television, etc... This is the future of America and it doesn't look bright. The dumbing down of America marches on.

I feel fine, so there is no problem.

This sort of complete self-absorption was drummed out of my parents’ generation. Sic transit gloria somebody.

In the day of MIRVs, it looked neater. The circles overlapped like fish scales over centers of population and industry. I despise a sloppy Armageddon; it offends my mid-European sensibilities.

It's a stupid game, and stupid leaders are basing their prestige/careers on an artificial score. Any halfwit knows the # of cases are mega higher than the present 100K. We only test if the person is very sick and likely to have it, elites not withstanding. It looks like they intentionally don't test to keep confirmed numbers low. When the death rate climbs how will they explain that?

Don't forget, the MIRVs were deployed in concentric rings to match the altitude of any escaping B-52's/ Backfire, up to 50 miles from every SAC base and major city.

Titans were Ground Zero city killers, big stuff:o

Blame it on somebody else?

Isn't that the new American way? Lol.

I miss the "ask not what your country can do for you" and "the buck stops here" days myself. That mentality has sadly been gone for decades.

It was nice when we had three networks that reported the exact same news too, also gone for decades.

perhaps @curious2garden could talk about this. I found these 2 articles, one from the Ohio Dept of Health and the other from a Texas hospital CEO

"said he had read that between shift breaks and staffing changes, treating a single COVID-19 patient might require as many as 40 masks per day"

"DOH reports taking care of a patient who is in intensive care for a 24-hour shift requires:
  • 36 pairs of gloves
  • 14 gowns
  • 3 pairs of goggles
  • 13 N-95 face masks"
I had no idea health care would go thru that much PPE. I can see why there are shortages. :neutral:
