The safety net wouldn't stand up to having to borrow trillions of dollars monthly. The result would be hyperinflation leading to mass suicides and civic unrest. Lifestyles were vastly different then as opposed to now. People today are spoiled compared to then. We live in tech bubbles, lack physical skills, most lack land and many live in small apartments they can barely afford. Our religious structure is far different. We do not farm and rely on spending money to get pleasure. Throw in 30% unemployment over a few years and I cannot see how we will cope. Our inner cities are already murder and crime ridden, that will greatly increase. Our drug problem to treat depression and mental illness will greatly increase along with addiction.

So because life is easier now than it was then more people will die now.....got it.

Interesting read. Doesn't seem to be biased, but I'm sure some will disagree.

www.theblaze.com

Some states have refused to issue stay-at-home orders for COVID-19. Despite media criticism, their coronavirus projections are improving, too. | Blaze Media

New data shows those states have had their death toll projections revised downward

crap article from a crappy biased source. The opinion piece Was junk. All over the place and based everything on estimates from a model.
Social distancing works end of story. Even the crappy article says social distancing works but drags on with how great trump is.

Lord you Trump haters are losing it. You cant even find anything decent to ----- about anymore.....Get outside today and get some Vitamin D. It helps!

Or how about you get some Vitamin A and improve your eyesight because we aren't bashing Trump 24/7 because we aren't kissing his feet on everything he does. It certainly beats this thread from becoming an echo chamber of one opinion.

Just making an observation about how weak the Trump attacks are getting. Didn't call anybody out personally. It is the political thread right?

Yes this is, but I also was commenting on how people are blindly following Trump and giving nothing but praise. Leaders need criticism to keep them in check.

I have zero issues with Trump bashing. I enjoy the banter. I do find it odd you only seem to come down on the blind Trump followers and not the blind Trump haters....No worries here though. I can take it!

Just as I find it odd you only sing praise for Trump all day long. But hey, as long as both of us can take it, it's fine.

It sounds like you hate it because is doesn't agree with you opinion, which is expected. I believe trump is mentioned twice, once to reference Americans adhering to the social distancing guidelines put out by trump(didn't seem like praise, just the fact those guidelines exist) and a second time in the quote below:
The president has also repeatedly maintained that a national shutdown is not the best option, even as he has opted to extend his social distancing guidelines through the month of April.

"States are different," the president said during a White House press briefing last week. "There are some states that are different, there are some states that don't have much of a problem."

"So you have to give a little bit of flexibility," he continued. "We have a state in the Midwest, or if Alaska, as an example, doesn't have a problem, it's awfully tough to say, 'close it down.'"

So if you hate the article for not bashing trump, then you are spot on. But to say "it drags on about how great trump is" seems to be pretty disingenuous.

I also expect to see disdain for modeling/forecasts that predict anything but mass sickness or deaths because it doesn't fit the "trump is doing a terrible job" narrative. The good thing for trump haters is if the infection rate/death toll turns out to be much lower than originally predicted they can fall back on "well if trump had acted earlier it wouldn't have been as bad as it was".

the Blaze is a right wing media source. The article was written as an opinion piece. It sucked.

He says that to distance himself from the blowback. It doesn’t work though. Everyone knows he’s full of shite.

Good to know, though I don't see much pointing to that being an opinion piece, other than you not agreeing with what it reports. I guess if you disagree with something, the only way to refute it is to claim it's an opinion vs a report. But that is probably something we all fall prey to at one time or another.

This is a serious reach. Do you "know" everyone you have stood next to? How about do you really "know" everyone you even work with? Now if he had said he never met the man then maybe you would have a point, however if you met someone once do you always remember them, if you do you are much better at it than I am.

There is bound to be a website somewhere, where you get sent a link to the " I hate Trump for this reason" ( today's date)……..I guess this was April 9, 2020
 
The Blaze is Glenn Beck’s website, so it’s definitely right-biased. Keep that in mind.

Yeah, I was aware of that. But hell, even left-biased websites publish unbiased articles/reports once in a while. But the way it seems right now is that right-biased websites/new orgs seem to publish articles with positive findings about the future of the rona(hey, check out these statistics/models that show things are looking up and trump was right, nobody needs to freak out), while left-biased websites/news orgs appear to publish articles with negative findings about the future(more gloom and doom, sky is falling and it's trumps fault). One side may end up being right and the other wrong, but I think it will end up somewhere in the middle. Take all with a grain of salt.

Positive people get results.....Donald Trump. The left loves misery, doom and gloom and they are still losing to Trump. Now that he has the virus headed in the right direction we can get the economy back rolling, people's jobs back and start taking care of the problem that started this....CHINA. What will the left and Trump haters do now? Find something else to lose at

Not only China, but also the European Union. European travel around the globe, in addition to the permitting of domestic air travel and boarder crossings under Schengen policies was greatly responsible for spread we saw in Europe, North America, South America, and Africa. It's been scientifically demonstrated through covid-19 samples, including tests in New York demonstrating that over 50% of cases originated in Europe. In fact, Mongolia had successfully kept coronavirus from spreading to the country by shutting its borders and restricted air travel from South Korea and Japan, but a French national spread the virus by entering through Russia.

Biden is a rapist that I've personally witnessed sexually assault women on television. It's not just talk with him. He loves groping underage women in his spare time, giving them creepy shoulder rubs while whispering "daddy's home." Just ask Mellisa Mylano. She is a supporter despite being sexually assaulted by Joe Biden. Don't believe Joe Biden's a creep? Why don't you check out the many videos of the all the Joe Biden unwanted sexual advances, and go check out the pedophilia statements Joe Biden made about having children sit on his lap and rub his leg. I guess he took notes from the other rapist Democrat President, Bill Clinton, who loved to rape minors on Epstein's sex slave island with presidential candidate in 2008, Bill Richardson. I wish we could have learned more about this incident, but they murdered him. And that's okay cause Democrats don't really care about murder and rape. They practice those things often. Cheating on his wife? Clinton accomplished that feat a mere 25 years ago when he took advantage of an intern in the oval office. Hillary Clinton didn't care. She played her role while her husband was raping and assaulting cause they promised her that she could be President one day.

Then there was the Bush that lied us into a war so he could kill people, and Biden helped out with that cause so his family could profit. There was McCain and Obama, who were responsible for arming ISIS cause they were a "moderate" muslim group, and then Obama just sat by when things got out of control and chemical weapons were allowed to be ignited in Syria. They said it was the government of Syria. wink wink.

So many depraved acts. So many murdered and victimized. And the mainstream media just ignored most it. Those politicians on the left and right are allies of the corporate entities and partnerships for whom they work.


Tell me what Trump did again? He loves porn stars? Cool. He cheats on his wife? Well that's never been a problem. He loves money? Yeah cause money is sweet. He cheats on his taxes? The countless Democrats that have cheated on their taxes is immense.

You really think he hired the guy? Trump relied on former political operatives from the Republican Party to hire much of his personnel, especially in the early years. In fact, Dems like you criticized him for that. Now your saying he knows all these guys?

I literally hired a contractor that hired a bunch of subcontractors that hired a bunch of laborers. I didn't know the names of every employee, and I didn't know some of the subcontractors. Get real.

Does no good to try and have conversation with him. He’s right and everyone else is wrong in his world. His response says it all.

Yes.....There are so many appointments in an administration. Was this a position the President would be personally tied to? Im sure he knows his name but know him? Its not surprising that Trump said he doesnt know him. Its also a quick way to move on from another question that is less important than lives and the coronavirus. The entire thing was a cluster
