Who is "we"?
We the cautious ones.
Who is "we"?
I don't give a Fuck what the State or Federal Government says .... I'll OPEN when I want to ... and NO ONE going to tell me when I have to
Out of a country of 325,000,000. That's less that 1%. So we should close every business in the country because .03% could die?
Were you recommending we close down every winter because of the flu?
[h=1]Jobless rate soared to 14.7% in April as U.S. shed 20.5 Million Jobs[/h]The U.S. unemployment rate jumped to 14.7 percent in April, the highest level since the Great Depression, as most businesses shut down or severely curtailed operations to fight the deadly coronavirus.
Over 20 million people lost their jobs in April, the Labor Department said Friday, wiping out a decade of job gains in a single month. The staggering losses are more than double what the nation experienced during the 2007-09 crisis, which used to be described as the harshest economic situation most people ever confronted. Now that has been quickly dwarfed by the fallout from the global pandemic.
President Trump and numerous state and local leaders decided to put the economy in a deep freeze in an effort to minimize exposure to the virus. This led businesses to suddenly shed millions of workers at a rapid rate never seen before. Analysts warn it could take many years to return to the 3.5 percent unemployment rate the nation experienced in February.
The sudden economic contraction has forced millions of Americans to turn to food banks and seek government aid for the first time or stop paying rent and other bills. As they go without paychecks for weeks, some have also lost health insurance and even put their homes up for sale. “This is pretty scary,” said Lindsey Piegza, chief economist at Stifel. “I’m fearful many of these jobs are not going to come back and we are going to have an unemployment rate well into 2021 of near 10 percent.”

There is a vaccine for the flu, and the flu kills less in 12 months than COVID did in 2 months.
Since when are "pro-life" people willing to accept even a percentage of American deaths? When they become so tied to Trump that they must...
Most all of these articles are from January and February, while Trump was getting classified briefings about the severity that they weren't sharing with anyone.
Yes I am absolutely infuriated by the fact that the CCP and WHO covered up the Wuhan outbreak for two months costing millions of lives and the collapse of the global economy, thank god we have a nationalist President willing to go after these blood thirsty globalist pigs unlike the bought and paid for Chinese asset Joe Biden
If you don't like it open up the economy. Not hard. I know Illinois is still on lock down. We have guys in our Chicago office we're on a daily call with who talk/complain about it. One dudes on a theater board in Chicago and said they've shut down everything for the remainder of the year. Sounds like Illinois can't host athletic events the remainder of the year either (over 50 people I believe). If these numbers bother you your states contributing greatly to it.
Edit: To be clear I'm not suggesting everything open up tomorrow like none of this is happening. We still need social distancing and still need a lot of precautions. But, we continue the shelter-in-place and the economic harm is only going to increase.
few months until what?
You cannot open up without people getting Corona and dying. It is impossible to not increase the chance of getting it. I suppose you are assuming that people will stick with the guidelines. Well, many have already ignored them. That is while we have been under lockdown.
The opening will not have much impact on the economy. People have been without work for over 2 months. How are they going to start buying? restaurants and stores have to separate customers. That will chop down sales. Opening up in an abbreviated fashion will not accomplish much and opening up completely will not happen.
I read in Texas they threw some chick in jail who owns a hair salon and kept it open during the shelter-in-place. Seems a pretty extreme measure. I believe you said you own a business. Not sure if it is deemed "essential" but what would the penalty be in Ill if you opened up early and got caught?
If you open your business they will throw you in jail because of the virus. If you are already in jail they release you because of the virus.
Makes you want to vote for Trump even more when November gets here, doesn’t it?

what makes you think I would want to go to any of those blue states?
Eat Shit FAG!
Don't worry, the virus will come to you. You do not need to go to NYC, or even China.
