Actually, the economy is not doing fine by any stretch of the imagination.


yea, people equate the stock market to the economy to casually.

THAT’S ENTIRELY RATIONAL: 

 

CBS News Poll Says 70% Of Americans Would Wait To Get COVID-19 Vaccine, Or Wouldn’t Get One At All. 

 

It’s a rushed vaccine for a disease that isn’t all that dangerous in most people.

 

It’s not like an Ebola vaccine. And did I mention it’s being rushed?

 

Unless you’re at high risk, the vaccine won’t change the odds much for you even if it works perfectly.

 

And when you factor in the risk that it will be dangerous — did I mention it’s being rushed? — people aren’t crazy to forego it.

 

And I say that as a guy who gets vaccinated for everything.

 

It’s just risk analysis math.

 
 
 
 


who is rushing it?

Clearly the point went right over your head.  The frustration isn't so much about John Lewis, it's that for the selected few chosen by the political class of the left, it's ok to break the "rules" as long as it is a cause they support.  Such as protests and in this case funerals.  Whereas, for many many people a big complaint about these lock downs is that they haven't been either to attend a funeral for a loved one or that it was limited to a handful of people.  That's the criticism, it's not about just scoring "political points".

 

You just continue to keep missing the point or parroting mainstream analysis without any ability to critically analyze things.   It happens on a daily basis with you.

 

It has to be intentional because he's proven that he can at least provide some coherent thinking from time to time here.

 

Unfortunately, this is the norm for leftists: instruct, accuseor blame the right for doing things that the left is literally doing while they instruct, accuse and blame.

 

Obama stands in a crowd to tell people they shouldn't stand in crowds, and the left's response to the obvious stupidity of what Obama is doing is "Well, you're missing the point..."

I'm not sure what people expected after an entire quarter of businesses being required to close under threat of arrest and fines...

 

The stimulus checks are masking a disaster in the making.  Nobody knows what the employment situation will be when the states reopen and how many small businesses will be around or how many more layoffs will happen at the large companies.    the longer the lockdowns linger, the worse the outcome.

Anyone who thinks the economy is doing fine should probably stop thinking out loud. The number of small businesses being wiped out is horrible. The number of people who relied on that small business job will find it extremely difficult to land a similar job when things open up because millions will be lined up for crumbs. It'll take years to get this corrected, and you don't need to be an economics major to see this.

 

But hey...if we can save one life from a virus that kills less than 1% of the population, it'll be worth all the overdoses, suicides and abusiveness that came in its path.

More from Osterholm.  With a straight face, he inadvertently tells us the goal was "get rid of the virus."   Ummmmmmmmmmmmm............

 

This is the absolute worst..worst in Monday Morning Quarterbacking and why "this is full on political now" and that should tick off everyone. 

 

If states "opened to soon" can we stop with full national totals and just do a "we think these states did it right" total and a "these states did it all wrong" total?

 

 

Dr. Michael Osterholm, epidemiologist at the University of Minnesota, told MarketWatch’s Jaimy Lee in an interview that the U.S. effort to contain the virus has failed because victory was declared long before it made sense. Early hot spot New York and neighboring states succeeded in getting their outbreaks under control by strict lockdowns that were followed by very gradual reopenings. Other states did not follow suit.

 

“This virus has been poised to be transmitted in our communities, and we thought we had done enough to get it down. It’s like a fire crew. “I only put out half the forest fire but you know, I put out half so we’re done.” And then look what happened. It’s burned more acres since we gave up than it did before we gave up,” he said.

why?  Fauci said right away they increase the spread and that he can’t comment on restrictions on protests.  
 

jordan guy Is pandering to you (hey, it worked!).  He knows damn well the government can’t restrict or limit these protests.

"Fooled" says the guy most likely running around in a mask afraid of the flu.  Anyway, he's not pandering, just pointing out the hypocrisy and inconsistencies.  Fauchi is a liar who can't answer a simple question because he knows he's a puppet and doesn't want to be exposed.

If you can stop people from going to a ball game, to church, to a gym, to a funeral, then you should be able to stop protests. Yes, protesting is a protected right, but so is going to church.

the right to go to a church is not anywhere near as strong as a right to protest in public.  
 

like it or not, that is the way it is.

Both are peaceful assemblies as far as I can tell.

Oh he also said the virus will dictate if we have football.

 

He had no problem opining on that.  

 

This whole thing literally is just going to go away on November 4 and we're going to live like it never even happened.

Um yes?  The conservative-majority Supreme Court just said limits on church is within a state’s right.

 

and there’s a reason no state has placed restrictions beyond curfews (see, some restrictions are okay!) on protests.  It would be shot down instantly as unconstitutional.

 

cry about your constitution, this isn’t a partisan point.  Did the government shut down the conservative protests?  Genuine question.

Which of those 2 rights are protected by the FIRST Amendment?

 

Oh, they both are?

 

Holy cow, you may be an intelligent person in real life, but you sure do love to play an idiot on the internet.

Wifey made a good point.  IF Biden wins, it doesn't go away in November, it goes away in early February so he can claim he "fixed it."
