Its not a right wing or left wing conspiracy.

its a play by the wealthy and powerful, this will be a huge wealth grab world wide.

That is the one I am thinking of creating a web site for,,,,,,, now I just need to figure out a name for these new villains.


Oh we do need a sarcasm button because the words above are. Lol

It's Nature. Somehow humans think more of themselves than we really are. It's hazardous living on this planet sometimes, some stuff we just can't do much about; hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, plagues, fires, drought, floods, et.al.. Nature is complicated stuff, we're trying to prescribe political discourse and flawed thinking into something we have limited control over and just don't fully understand yet. Those who know it all and have it all figured out don't. Focus on helping people now and I'm sure the lame blame game will be in full bloom later.

A lot of the rules that further isolate us were the result of idiots thinking the virus isn't highly contagious. The virus is slowing due to distancing.

So we think we can control nature by staying at home, shutting businesses down, un-employing millions. Ok. When all these people on lockdown are released and “cases” start to rise again we’re going to shut everything down again? The virus isn’t just going to go away because of distancing or staying at home.

I get that some people will die prematurely due to Corona.......but if you are 87, bedridden in a nursing home for 5 years then were you really "living?"

So if we deduct the "seriously ailing" from the 18,000 deaths in the US so far how many are we talking about then? 500K cases/18K deaths is 3.7% death rate.

Cancer kills 600K people a year, 50K a month.
Gun related deaths 15K annually (suicides excluded, but guns are used in 62% of the 50,000+ suicides).

So in the big picture, if you live in a low populated area (VT has 623 cases statewide, 23 deaths) then the corona hype isn't likely going to effect you.

So what the F does cancer or guns have to do with a highly infectious disease? So lets knock off the sick and ailing...do you understand what you're saying? Where will it stop? The semi-sick? The soon to be sick? The I'll be sick someday crowd? Man...I had asthma as a kid...so I'm expendable too.

Do agree with density being an issue but that just means that if the rural get infected it'll just be less people...oh well?

So NYC has 18 million people, 3.7% is 660,000 and that's ok? So lets let 'em run around because our "rights" are being trampled? When do we get concerned?

For our Trump derangement Syndrome folks:

When will the sheep realize the Shepard is their protector? Maybe they should pay attention to what really lurks in the pasture?

Have not seen him in awhile. Love that boat and it is a true wave crusher. Last time I saw it go by , he had tamed down the exhaust some...
