And, yet, many people are still more concerned about the 0.5% that MIGHT die than they are about the millions of people who could possibly end up homeless.
People need to wear masks. And wearing a mask does not mean using it as a chin diaper. We never should have shut down in the first place. But that is old news. Wear a mask and there will be no more shutdowns.
We don't need more bailout and helicopter money. We need people to get back to work.

How about each one of us decide if we should wear a mask or not, those that are afraid welcome to stay home with lock door and if needed blanket over their head.

Hmmm, ok, then don't complain about the economy. So much for personal responsibility, just ridiculous.
There is a reason why they say to have an emergency fund. Also many Americans are living beyond their means. When you live beyond your means and you don't make an extra effort to put any sort of money into an emergency fund, that is a recipe of disaster. At one point in time my husband and I brought home 3,000 a month. We did everything we could to put money into our savings.
Even now, with him gone, we live on a tight budget and still manage to put money away.

Our service members are still currently fighting. Still training and still going to schools to make sure they are trained for anything that may come our way.

We do need Governors and mayors to open states and towns back up with safety guidelines in place. That is what is hurting so many right now. It's sad seeing businesses that have been in business for 30+ years shutting their doors permanently due to local government shutting things down.
I do not care about personal responsibility except to my family and my friends. Each person for themselves.
Well you should care about your personal responsibility. And no, not each person for themselves. We are the United States and should always look out for and take care of each other. Otherwise, we should be called the divided states. This virus is killing us and our economy. Trump has no idea what to do about it.
Reality is that a lot of people are hurting. And the lower half is hurting the most. All while Putin's puppet Pelosi plays politics with people's lives. But she doesn't miss her maskless trip to the hair salon.
Ive stated my job here before. I will explain it in simple words. I write software that tests software.
There you go. Ive also been a Sr Software Engineer at Intel, and a Sr QA.
Im rarely surprised when you folks go for the personal attacks rather then discussing things like facts, or truth. Sort of fascinating seeing attempts to derail the topic and attack a politician instead. Which ironically if you worked for the GOP and were a paid troll ..... now that....That would be amazing. Cause then it would be the most messed up nonsense I have ever seen. Alas, I will never know.
LOL. I notice the Democrats passed stuff to help folks months ago. Republicans? Chirp....chirp. And then....OMG its the democrats fault!
The Democrats do not pass ANYTHING, without the Republican controlled Senate, & Presidency.
You do know that the people in need got only ~20% of the $3.5T, and the top 1% got the rest...right?
Have you done the simple math? I have...read my posts, and you'll learn something.
