DOD should build field hospitals. Nat’l emergency measures should be taken to manufacture ventilators, respirators & testing kits. Get this GOING. They’re afraid to go full on “This is what govt can do overriding private sector during a crisis” cuz people will like it & want more

Our government is too corrupt. They can't even pass paid sick leave for more than 20% of workers after they exzempt their donors. This forces the working class to show up for work sick. Spreading pandemics is our governments super power.

Yes..when the government decides to be for the people as much as it's for the stock market and its' donors. Easy to forget it's our taxes footing the bill to protect private industry sectors.

Defense Department ready to test civilians for coronavirus, but hasn't been asked yet, general says

The director of the Defense Health Agency said Thursday that while Defense Department labs can perform “tens of thousands” of tests per day for civilians, so far nobody has asked them to do so.

Also, everything citizens need to prepare for a month long quarantine. Including but not limited to immediate UBI. I don’t understand why this is being dragged out. Intervention needs to happen immediately to minimize the consequences.

I agree, I would just like to point out there have been field hospitals in the USA for years in poorer parts because many Americans already couldn’t afford life saving healthcare.
