The ideological obsession on the part of the administration and Senate to put protection of the stock market before protection of our people is what has put the United States so behind the curve in dealing with the coronavirus crisis.

In order to catch up, we must be willing to shatter that economic paradigm. It will be no good to save a business if the people forced to show up for work are spreading a potentially deadly disease. The only way to save our economy turns out to be by saving our people.

If this were a “foreign enemy” attacking us, I promise you there would be more than an $8.5 billion emergency expenditure. Right now we have a $738B Defense budget while the CDC budget is 1.5% of that. Do the math, see the priorities, yell like crazy. Politely, of course :)

Unpopular opinion: With a finite amount of resources (land, food, jobs, etc.) it might not be a terrible thing to let nature shrink the global population a bit... After all #COVD19 only prunes the weak old branches on the tree of life.

Initially the number from Trump was $2.5b. Schumer, Pelosi, et al complained that wasn't enough and needed to be closer to $8b. Trump raises the number to $8.5b. Complaints like this follow. There is literally nothing he can do to please you guys.

You're so awesome. I hope you have a position in the next administration. We need all of the economic populists we can get.

Why don’t we just shoot the coronavirus with bullets? Problem solved!
