OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

Id like to ask what you think would hurt the long term economy more? American Companies having to replenish 1% of the work force(a few hundred thousand). Or America having 10% of it's businesses close down for good?


I'm pretty sure I know what the answer is. Unfortunately and as cold as it sounds, its a numbers game. Alot more could go without jobs if their companies cant open back up.

 

Gyms can reopen if they can maintain social distancing....LoL. ya that's happening.

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner don't think the coronavirus rules apply to them

 

Is it that big a deal to go from one house to another?

 

This is already in the Orange Man Bad thread.

 

Plus, those 600,000 people with heart disease will continue to die, with or without a boost from covid19. In fact, I would think that many of those heart patients who may have otherwise survived another few years, will die because of covid19.

 

Couldn't resist checking out that thread, eh?... lol...just jerking your chain, man.

 

Lol I think it was the first post.

 

Ugh, that story reads with the most whiny, insufferable tattle-tale tone.

I mean, is CNN really still claiming to be a news outlet? This is nothing more than partisan political commentary, same as FOX news (had to throw that disclaimer in there so the dolts don’t start screaming wHaT aBoUt FoX NeWs?!?!?)

If someone agrees with these ideas, that’s perfectly fine. People are entitled to an opinion.

But to present these stories as news, and for these outlets to claim they are engaging in journalism, is really just shameful and unfortunate. Especially for the lesser-informed people in this country who think they are being provided a necessary service.

 

100% this. This is why I’m so hostile towards media. They truly are the enemy of the people. Been that way since the late 80s. It’s not about reporting news. It’s about reporting a narrative.

 

I’m not a journalist. Neither are you. We can express our views.

News agencies are supposed to be unbiased. Calling balls and strikes. Giving equal vetting to anyone or anything they report. They are the ones screaming from bull horns they are honest journalism. That’s so far from the truth.

 

Hey, I gotta confess, I also checked out both of those "orange man" threads.

I'm guessing that they were sort of a joke by @Sly but I'm sure all the mods would love to see us contain our points/views based both of of those threads...but then again, I'm sure that the mods know damn well that we are incapable of restricting our posts/views/comments/replies to just one of those threads while staying out of the other one.

And I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the first offender.

 

Just my 2 cents...as far as transparency and unbiased factual content, the media is no worse than social media.

 

I'm on record as saying if we are gonna go down its by this creating total chaos and anarchy.

Where is the truth anymore? No one knows, so they follow who speaks the loudest opinion they agree with.

We have lost the fundamentals of physical labor( when I say we, I mean the general average modern day American 30 and under who knows nothing but gadgetry) and communication and social behavior.

We are all locked up in our homes staring at screens with a disconnect to reality. Its sooo easy to comment on videos, because the emotions and the nerves don't set in as if you were on site at the scene.

Sooo many people with such stern, immovable opinions based on what they watch on youtube and read on facebook with very little credible research and disconnect to the struggles and or tension they are often commenting on.



Its real easy to say fuck your free speech. When you never had to live the life of fighting for it.......


The media is the biggest evil we face.

Following the loudest voice on FB/twitter/etc without any research is the second biggest...

 

New guidelines are from the best science and the best common sense...LoL BIG BULLSHIT!!
