Whatever happened to influenza? Seems like no one has died from that. According to the cdc average death toll was between 45k and 65k people a year in the U.S. Not sure what the world wide numbers have been.

Might want to look at the state of Florida. Unlike California and New York, our businesses are open and responsible Americans are living their lives and their businesses are doing well. Our numbers are as good and typically better than states that are sheltering in place. Im NOT saying this is a scam but I am saying it was blown out of proportion and was weaponized politically.
Recession? You cant be serious... The market is at 31,XXX today and if you are a naysayer that the market is not an indicator then explain to me what sectors are doing poorly. There is no point in history that 100% of the country experienced exponential growth. Assuming the COVID pandemic, the economy is doing extraordinarily well.

If you go back and read the news from November - and I mean the kind of news that people whose homes don't have wheels read, not what some guy posted on Facebook - you will learn that crude prices started increasing in November for three main reasons:
1. US production was lower than expected (I.e. expectations that supply would be lower)
2. There were positive news about COVID vaccines (I.e. expectations that demand would be higher as life returns to normal)
3. The US dollar was weakening, and oil typically moves in the opposite direction to the US dollar
It is not a scam. It has claimed more than 500 000 lives in America and more than 2 500 000 lives in the world overall. That includes people I know.__PRESENT

OMG!!! I just left my neighbors house and saw on tv the damn democrats are now turning on each other! I bet that Cuomo wishes Trump was still in office. He wasn't scared to grab a kitty from time to time.
