The hospitals are not even close to overloaded they were sending doctors and nurses home. Saving lives at what cost? My mom is 90. She stays at home (common sense) Again use common sense. Shutting down is stupid. There are states that stayed open why didn't death rates soar. This is way overblown. Saving lives wtf at what cost? Your born and you die its life. Time to move on and its not about convenience. Its about getting back to work. All my crews were sent home in the middle of March. Did they get stimulous checks? A couple but most are taking advances out of my pocket just to eat! They...We just wanna go back to work. And we work outside. This is nonsense
i would have zero objection to opening everything back up for anyone 35 or under, if they were able to totally stay away from older people.
problem is, there is no way for them to, and even those who don't live or work with older persons, live next door or across the hall from them.
no, it's not fair the young are suffering with the old who gave them life, raised them for free, and paid for their K-12 education.
but sometimes life calls for sacrifices, of which today's young have never been asked to do in the slightest till now.
everything today's young have, they have due to those older than them and who passed before..
it's only been less than 2 months of being cooped up with the internet and cable tv.
not even in the same universe of sacrifices of generations before, so the probably vast minority of young who are whining, stop with the non stop whining.
no, it's not fair.
it's also not fair that the older have to deal with all the young have to deal with, and the morbidity factor as well.
everybody is going crazy in lockdown, including myself and all other older people.
but it's a sacrifice that needs made.
as for the economic side, that could have been addressed so nobody got ruined economically.
the Wall St owned govt didn't want it done that way, so get all over their asses on that and vote them all out of office, rather than doing their bidding for them by wanting to force things open, which is what Wall St wants, rather than forcing them to apply rent and mortgage and loan pauses retroactive to March 1, which are absolutely doable, and allowing us to get testing ramped up, and a grasp of who all has it, and more importantly who has already had it.
if the economy opening back up is dependent on universal testing being available, then the whole testing clusterfk would be cleared up immediately.
they won't clear it up without that gun to their head.
