Could be but like the threat itself it really depends on where you live and personal experiences. If you're living in NYC the Covid threat isn't being overblown, damn near everywhere else it's highly exaggerated. If you work in certain industries or have a small business closed down this is a disaster, for those yet to be impacted it's really not much more than an inconvenience at this point. Covid will be managed soon enough. The true measure of this economic shutdown is still unfolding and will be well into next year before we can get our heads around the extent of damage done. One word comes to mind. Taxes, soul crushing taxes for years to come.
Yeah but the panic of COVID and the panic of the shutdown is being sold nationally so I am not looking at it regioanlly.
But national media and DEM and GOP leadership is playing a shit game of tennis of selling what a global catastrophe Corona is versus what a destruction of economies and families were are creating with nothing in the middle to simply handle the issue which is a purely medical one.
I fele both sides have overblown thier argument because neither side gives a shit about what is actually happenning...only winning a point.
Damage is done but our government get swept up in the "I am right" game rather than address this issue head on like we saw in Soouth Korea, taiwan, Japan and numerous other countries. From Trump down to the Governors it was like watching a bunch of children bitch and moan about everything with our cheeto wasting so much time trying to prove he is right (wrong) and governors try and prove they are right (wrong) and the rest of us got screwed.
In addition to Trump talking out of his ass daily and lying, you think I also needed to hear Gov. Cuomo get 60 minutes of air time to create some of the most runny verbal diahrrhea I have seen in years?
I would like to see Biden win in 2020 to remove the useless shit we have now and I also would love to see McConnell, Pelosi, Schumer, and the other GOP asshat in HoR I am blanking out on removed from power and marginalzied. Anyone in those camps or Bernie's camp not needed.
The government handled the crisis like a bunch of camp counselors in a Friday the 13th movie.
U.S. has hit a low in political culture.
With the luxury of speaking to clients in Malaysia, Japan, China, Panama, Dominican Republic, Mexico and a few other places, the U.S. is being laughed at in how they handled this and the constant jumbled and confused messages that was put out by all the media (yes all the media) and the people in power of both parties.
A simple 45 to 60 day strict protocol enacted at the end of February would have us in right now by Stage 3 of the opening process with half the amount of federal aid needed to assist those affected.
Instead we are getting almost 90 days of this fuck flea vagina circus.
