For someone you proclaim to loathe, you are pretty obsessed with him.Does the president affect your life that much?
Very liberal of you.
do you think we should not have any speed limits because death is inevitable?Do you think we should not have drunk driving laws because crashes occur anyway?
Let’s see. Record unemployment, tanking stocks, economy shut down. Um yeah. Hopefully you really meant to post that in teal.
We tolerate 40,000 auto fatalities a year in this country as a cost of doing business. We have laws in place so that number isn't 60,000 or 80,000. We can be practical and do the same for this virus to protect the most vulnerable. I'm old, my earnings curve is ending and tied to dividends and interest. For many of you and for my kids (in their 20's and early 30's), this has implications that I don't think you all grasp to the fullest extent in my opinion. If you are infected between 18 to 44 years old, less than 1% need hospitalization and less than 0.1% die. Those odds are lower than things we allow freely to happen to those age groups every day in this country.
They’re also a weak indicator since everyone with a fever doesn’t have COVID.
You must have an alert for every time I post - you respond almost immediately as a rule. Meanwhile, you still haven’t answered Eng’s question. If you had I wouldn’t have made my admittedly snarky post.
And it’s beyond reason and a miracle the markets have hung on as well as they have considering our economy has all but shut down for two months.
It's not a miracle. It is called the Feds printing money to buy securities and place a backstop on the economy. Trillions in securities bought so that there was less risk of corporate bankruptcies, and no other place to put money that could generate any sort of return. The economy is dismal. The market is absurdly overpriced, and expensive. It is because of fed actions. Actions that eventually have to be undone. At some point, we will pay the price.
The 1969 Pandemic that killed more than a million globally and 100,000+ in the United States. The Hong Kong flu. My dad had it and we was extremely sick.It barely made the news. We did almost nothing, life went on as normal. Contrast that to today.https://nypost.com/2020/05/16/why-life-went-on-as-normal-during-the-killer-pandemic-of-1969/Woodstock was in full bloomNo school closingsShamu was ill with the virusThose of you old enough to remember might enjoy this read. I was a teen still and other than my dad having the flu, it didn't register.
You’re seriously suggesting the current economic environment is the fault of Trump? Never let a crisis go to waste I suppose. And it’s beyond reason and a miracle the markets have hung on as well as they have considering our economy has all but shut down for two months.
It is not hero worshiping, it is acknowledging what they did and I doubt any future generation in this country will ever do again. It is my opinion and memorialized by properly for people that have come later who have little idea the gravity of the situation or the sacrifice people made then. No idea.
Where is the Tea Party to be outraged by the Fed's fenagling and the multi-trillion-dollar deficit spending? Where is Joe Wilson to stand up when President Pandemic is stumbling his way through a teleprompter speech to shout, "You lie!"
Mike, man to man, can we stop the “President Pandemic” nonsense? The partisan nature of all of this is unavoidable and I can accept that, but that’s as annoying and distracting as people calling him Cheeto Man or other stuff on Twitter. I know it’s meant to rile a certain sect up, but you’re better than that Speaking of the HK Flu, amazed how well they’ve handled this. But I suppose they are experts in infectious disease combat by this point. Plus it unintentionally quelled all the protest chaos
I bet you were an "Obama's ecomony" guy until January. You used to be rational, dont know what happened to you.

No, I thought the economy was artificially propped up by a trillion dollar a year addition to the deficit should be better than it was when we were actually reducing the deficit.But are you seriously saying the actions of trump doesn’t impact your life?Are you part of the trump tells it like it is guy or you have to understand what he means not what he says guy or a fine people on both sides guy or a build the wall and Mexico is going to pay for it guy or a lock her up for a private server even though ivanka is doing the same thing it’s different guy? So hard to keep up these days.I’m more of a wwjd guy.
No.Wait, my taxes went down. I think about that sometimes.WWJD? What would Joe do? Sniff hair and grope minors.
