The answer is not to reopen the economy; it's to freeze the economy. The government should provide everyone with the economic wherewithal to survive this period without leaving home. It's criminal to make people have to choose between their livelihood and their health.

That is our problem. That we aren’t being cared for in the same way other countries are caring for their citizens. There is a disinformation machine being funded by far right oligarchs like Devos that are weaponizing angry poor people. We must understand: youtube.com/jO0YNXCLVtE

I guess food will magically materialize on your table, the lights will magically turn on, water will mystically appear from a faucet, the computer you wrote this on will magically work and transmit data to a special magic ether... such a typical utopian leftist/socialist view.

Corporations are just blatantly stealing our tax dollars at this point.....

It amounts to: their livelihood or their life... Basically, they're asked to lay their lives on the line for the economy, to behave like good soldiers "for the greater good"... (which is what has ALWAYS been asked of them, only before it was masked... the irony...)

I can’t believe how many people think this is outrageous or criminal.

what a genius idea, the government can change the numbers in the bank computers and we will eat the bytes, I can't believe you weren't nominated for president
