Gee... doesn't feel like it does it?

Why again did we shutdown our economy?

"Oh look, our projections on the extended curve, that we pulled out of our asses, is a lot lower than expected."

The extended curve, instead of the massive spike, was a projection due to social distancing and shutting down the economy but the real numbers are extremely low. To the point they are laughable. None of it smelled right at the start and it's even worse now. It pisses me off the more I think about.

I get most annoyed when I see the people celebrating the shutdown. Like we are doing some great service to our country by keeping people out of work.

Agreed. I'm also getting annoyed by people that hang on every single word coming from the talking heads. Forget all about them being proven to be agenda pushing fuckwads because now they say everyone is all dealing with this together and everyones going to die unless they bow to authority.

I'm also getting annoyed by pensioners that don't have to worry about a strong economy and finding a job...

Funny how the people spreading this the most, the media and government workers, are all drawing checks.

I'm working myself, but at least I can have some perspective and see this madness for what it is.

And yet people are still terrified of imminent death.

These people must be afraid of their shadow.

It's like they're under a spell. Really hard to explain.

idk if it is a product of public education, too much MSM, or what. I'm sure those two factors aren't helping.

I can understand if you have an underlying respiratory issue, you're old, you're fat, yes you probably should shelter in place. For the rest of us that are reasonably healthy. We need to get on with our lives and deal with the 0.1% chance of death.

More like the gas crisis/oil embargo of the 70's.

Let that sink in
