OK people enough is enough. I used to have a 1972 El Camino. Nasty hot rod. Very fast. But if that fucker sat too long and I didn't drive it, it wouldn't start. And the one time it sat way too long it cost a fortune to get that fucker running again.
If you get sick, you get sick. Deal with it. They are going to kill everyone to save a few.
On Monday March 30 end all quarantines. End all shut downs. Start this motherfuckerr up again!
We are setting a horrific precident. We are saying, "The best thing you can do is do nothing. Sit at home and do nothing." Doing nothing is never the answer.
Start this motherfuckerr up and get this economy and entire country running again!

I don’t mind the government controlling my life, as long as I get free healthcare and they send me a check every month to live off of.

Who's going to take out your garbage? Fix your plumbing? Put a new roof up over your head?
I have not yet seen one robot able to do any of these things. So what you are expecting is totally unrealistic. Nothing is free because energy is not free. Plants can use the sun for energy but humans can't. We can harness it but it is not free. Somebody has to make solar panels, the energy can't be stored, the sun does not always shine.
Shutting down the economy will be much worse than a virus outbreak. Pretty soon the cure will be more damaging than the virus.
I predict the shit will hit the fan if these lockdowns are extended every 3 weeks indefinitely. And it will start with the Dindus who can't control themselves. Then people will start defending their shit and before you know it mayhem breaks out.

A lot of people on here dont understand the benefits of a robot based society. A robot is just another tool like a wrench or a drill.

Construction and home repairs are considered essential services.
Home Depot and Lowes are remaining open so you can fix your toilet.,
My neighbor had a new roof put on Sunday.
Liquor stores are considered essential so you can get drunk.

Lt Gov of Texas Dan Patrick who’s turning 70 soon just said that everyone should get back to work and not to crash the economy due to uncertainty lasting for the next several months just because senior citizens are at a higher risk, and he’s right.

SF, It sounds like you should have joined the military and retire at the age of less than 40.
Otherwise .... you're shit out of luck .....along with a monthly retirement check.... and full medical coverage.

Are all building departments open? Construction for new projects can't proceed until plans have been reviewed and approved. Yes I know not all contractors get permits for roofing for example. But commercial project do require permits. I am not hearing any construction going on in our neighborhood.
The economy is going to be fucked soon. I know some people that already lost their jobs.

Agree wholeheartedly. Why shut down the economy when only like 20% will die. Fuck em. You smoke you dead, you got aids you dead, you got lung issues you dead. Too bad too sad. Can't sacrifice everybody cuz you got bad genetics. Out with the old and in with the new my dudes. R.I.P..
I bench like 300 lbs fools, I'll be fine.

You know, there are some really smart people with relevant formal training who are working with Coronavirus in one way or another. Let's call these people Rorys.
Apart from the things I mentioned, Rorys are normal people with social media, post on forums, etc. They're very easy to find on Twitter.
Every Rory I've seen agrees this is a big deal.
To claim you laugh at "the losers who buy into this bullshit" is such a narcissistic and idiotic post that makes my blood boil.
I really hope you're right that this is all BS, but chances are you're not.
PD: Someone may argue that my observation about Rorys is biased, since alarmist news spread easier and thus there's a bigger chance of crossing across them, but when all of them are bad news, it would be foolish to not take them seriously.

One way or another economically we have to slow down or we risk the value of the dollar skyrocketting and making our goods undesirable to other countries. This country is not an island we are intertwined to the rest of the world. Its called a global economy. A 2 trillion dollar stimulus might work, im not an economist, but i believe (this is my uneducated understanding) the slowing of our economy is actually vital long term. We could also lower the cost of our goods overseas to match deflation but then youd have to lower wages and then lower costs of living and essential goods and services ( rent food electricity water) and oh my lord is that complicated.
Basically i believe Trump is keeping us in balance with the rest of the world, which is hurting bad. I have faith both in God and our elected president. Hes not an idiot.
I am very interested in Trumps attempts to give aid to nkorea and iran. I see massive upside to the pandemic if trump can parlay correctly. The president of nkorea is young, the time is right he could make allys with the US and move his people into the 21st century. End the standoff with skorea. He would be remembered as a hero forever and ever. Imagine how stabilizing that would be, for the whole world. Trump is eyeing the opportunity i think. I really really hope hes succesful.
China fucked up big time. They literally depend on us for food. We can manufacture cheap goods here or in mexico. Right now every casualty of the chinese virus was someone to someone. When the world has the pandemic under control, a lot if very hurt very angry people all over the world are going to want payback and no one is going to forgive and forget that china tried to keep the outbreak from being known. They put the world months behind. They should have closed their borders in december when the outbreak started. China should have handled the situation responsibly and kept it from spreading. Instead they let their problem become everyone elses problem.
I could be wrong but i think the powers that be (in china) are going to regret their decision.

Lack of USA consumer demand even for a month could cause regime change in China. The generals installed by China run North Korea. When Trump meets with Kim it's understood just a China proxy.

The potential seriousness of covid19 lies mostly in the unknown. We are always at great risk when a virus jumps species and was not previously known to do so. Evidence of said seriousness canbe seen in the uk where they are basically allowing the virus to run its course in the interest of developing herd immunity. So if the virus does mutate and become much, much worse, at least mankind will have a stronghold that will have been exposed and stands a better chance of survival than the rest of the world which has zero immunity whatsoever.
In all honesty, id probably infect myself if i could right now. I dont like to gamble, and betting the virus never mutates and just goes away is probably -ev even though natural selection favors weaker mutations the spanish flu proves viruses are unpredictable and id feel safer with any modicum of immunity versus nothing.

This country is not the only country involved. It is a worldwide pandemic. The market is down everywhere. People are staying home from work everywhere. Folks are getting sick everywhere. Think globally, not just locally.

We are racing toward a great Depression at warp speed. The government spending a Trillion it can't afford to spend won't help the economy in the long run. The government has no money. Only the money they take from the workers and prints claiming they back the money. We have to weigh the cost of the virus vs the collapse of the country. Pneumonia killed 50K last year in the US. No fear or hysteria. The common flu killed over 20K in the US this flu season and no hysteria. We have under 500 Corona deaths in the US. People are losing their life savings in the stock market. Double digit unemployment is going to be announced soon. GDP is going to be shocking low in the quarterly report. People's savings are being depleted. I predict when Trump opens the country for business Democrats are going to fight to keep it closed then blame every death on Trump for political reasons. Cuomo has already said he thinks the country might have to be shut down till the next election. What does that tell you?

Brother I'm with you 100 percent it's a global situation. If I could speak and write other languages, I would. I can only write English. Plus I'm not sure how "nasty hot rod" would translate in to Mandarin. :D
Stay healthy my friend.

World leaders will be forced in to deciding between the economy and saving lives. It's a dammed if you do and dammed if you don't situation.
Comparing COVID-19 to the common flu and pneumonia is fine as long as it is a fair and honest comparison. Your calculations are missing one key factor and that is how quickly COVID-19 has spread. We don't yet know what the numbers will be over the the course of a year. How many people died from the flu or pneumonia, (not related to COVID-19) in three months last year or even this year during the past three months which is how long COViD-19 has been publicly known about. So the figures of 20K and 50K are false figures right now. Make and realistic an accurate comparison and post your findings on Getbig.

This shit should be winding down soon. They got the $2 trillion stimulus. The Fed promised unlimited QE. There’s no longer a financial incentive to keep the scam going.
In his press conference today Trump signaled that he wants to get things going sooner rather than later. If you think he’s gonna listen to that little shit Anthony Fauci, think again.
I suspect the tipping point is going to be Thursday when the initial unemployment claims come out. It’s going to be shocking.
Then we’ll see if people really care if a bunch a decrepit old pieces of shit kick the bucket a year earlier.
All countries afflicted by this are promising huge amounts of money to be thrown at the problem. Massive amounts relative to each country which has both relieved and surprised people. Are you saying that this whole thing was done so countries could borrow vast sums without the normal process? What is your position?

We are being held hostage by concern over elderly, sick people. Enough cases are around to know Corona it's a flu, like the seasonal flu that kills 10,000 people a year in the US anyway. You can go to work, you can exercise precaution, and if you get it, you are sick for a couple weeks then have immunity as Corona has no mutations yet. The media has dishonestly not covered who is actually dying, as the population that is dying is the same population that dies from seasonal flu every year.
It's not worth destroying lives, destroying small businesses and destroying the United States.

Most world leaders are elderly or nearly so. Do you expect them to make decisions that jeopardize their own lives? What do you think the response would have been if COVID-19 almost exclusively affected infant mortality?

I've seen some data that suggests seniors are just as asymptomatic as the young.
The deaths are related more to comorbidity.

Yep. The primary cause of death appears to be failure of the lungs to absorb oxygen. If you have diminished pulmonary capacity you are at very high risk. Just like every other influenza before this.

I’ve been saying the problem was used as a pretext for currency devaluation. My scenario even explains why so many draconian measures had to be taken. Had there been a sensible approach of say isolating the sick and elderly and the rest of us just washing our hands and not coughing on anyone, that wouldn’t have required stimulus and massive QE. The economies had to be disrupted.
In fact, now that the deed has been done, Trump was on TV today recommending my approach.
Come on. We’re talking about trillions of dollars here. You have to be pretty naïve to think it’s all on the up and up.

I’m 59 & well aware I’m in the last quarter or so of my life, I don’t consider myself old & worn out
As I still train hard & intense & have a Decent 230lb Muscular Physique- I know others older than me
Who are also very strong & Muscular- I’m a Father & Grandfather.
Why the total disgusting disrespect for older folk for you - Do you not have any grandparents/ older relatives ? Do you Dislike them & wish them dead also.
Agree there are some young & Mostly older people who are underlying very unwell & Weak
Should they not then receive any care or Treatment ?
If it was you or your family members would you Think Differently ?

I was out of line with that last bit but the point is the response has been completely over blown and it was done for a reason, to devalue the currency. The elderly and the sick just need to be isolated. The rest of us need to wash our hands and not cough on anybody. We didn’t have to shut down the entire country. In fact, all of this fear and hysteria has made things more dangerous to those who are really vulnerable as everybody with a little cough is now reporting to the hospital thinking they have corona. I’ve heard that of the people showing up over 95% don’t have it.
The United States stimulus bill is up to 2.5 trillion. When you’re talking about that kind of money there’s always going to be a lot more going on than meets the eye.
