Just a snippet:

quote:

We’ll get no BREAKING NEWS alerts for the regular flu deaths (so far this season, more than 23,000, compared to 533 from the coronavirus).

Nor for the more than 3,000 people who die every day of heart disease or cancer. No alerts for the hundreds who die each day from car accidents, illegal aliens and suicide.

Only coronavirus deaths are considered newsworthy.

Trump has done all he could. We have to be in it, to win it, now.

I am generally not too concerned about catching someone's cancer.

Complete Denial on Day One or Blind Panic Now
Does anyone wonder what about the American psyche renders the majority of us incapable of NOT responding to any stimulus in the most excessive manner conceivable?

If we started a fuss about this, the meat & dairy industry would raise hell because they the ones causing the majority of these deaths. And politicians don't want to piss off the people putting money in their pockets...but Coulter likely already knows that.

How long until a national economic collapse makes its way to your neighborhood? Your industry? Your profession?

You think banks will forgive mortgage payments/loans for more than a few months?

Bankruptcies can be VERY contagious.

Were ate what 14 days of any significant lock downs?

If we are still isolating 3-4 months from now I would be a lot more concerned.

There is a reasonable middle ground in a crisis. Its not shut everything down for a year and it isn't let this thing run its course the economy needs to move forward.

I feel lucky this whole thing happened, because I’ve been in complete denial I still have a job in the oil industry.

She is a reasonably-rational person. She gives props when they are due and criticism when IT is due.

Yes. 14 days.

Did you notice that we now have the largest number of unemployment insurance applications this week? Highest number in the history of the nation?

I hope so. She could not get off the boarder issue. Which was not the Presidents fault. Would love to have her back in the fight.

Wow, imagine still believing a low fat diet is the answer in 2020.

There was an ad on the radio the other day that 3-5k people die annually from food poisoning

What's your answer, champ? Just compare this to vaguely similar issues that cause death in the country?

If mouth breathers like yourself reduced the amount of meat & dairy intake, this particular statistic would drop. Hell, the majority of these pandemics come from people eating animals.

Reduce eating animals, reduce heart disease and global pandemics.

How about the comparative reaction to the seasonal flu?
Does it seem a little hysterical to you or nah?

They force absolutely no one to partake of their products. Thought I'd mention it since you seem to be confused.
