I don't want to hear anything from centrist dems and GOPers about bailing anyone out. LET THEM EAT CAKE! That's what you voted for, NO SAFETY NET. And LET THEM DIE! No medical care for all. If you can't afford to be saved then just go die. That's what you voted for, NO SAFETY NET. LET THEM STARVE! No freebies for the freeloaders! If your big money job shuts down and you get sent home to fend for yourself, do that bootstrap thing you love to talk about! That's what you voted for, NO SAFETY NET. ...  if only somebody wanted to radically change our government to be prepared to handle things like this and invest in programs that would have mitigated this kind of disaster while preserving the value of our markets. But that would be extremist radical socialism nonsense... Who needs safety nets?

Markets down a huge amount this morning. Hope your toes are still attached 40. Like I said. Impossible to time markets. If you had investments in before the first CV created crash you were stuck. If you didn't have investments before the CV created crash you missed and amazing early 2020 rally.
The more things change the more they stay the same.

Nah 88, I'm just pointing out facts. Everybody is jammed up, so now socialism is great and they all want it. I just spent months being villainized for backing democratic socialism. Called everything under the sun because people like me have the common sense to think ahead and be compassionate all the time, not just when our ass is on the line.

I dunno what’s more entertaining. Trumps useless rants, or OCD’s Bernie bro rants.
I’d pay for that debate.

I am not going to go round and round on all the particulars with you.
Live in fear or man up and live with precautions.
Exactly. I hope he's so scared he can't even breathe! I'll continue to go about my regular life. He reminds me of one of those people who don't walk at night or doesn't travel on vacation because he's scared of terrorism. I sure as hell wouldn't want him on my side in a fight. Got to love the overreaction though, especially from yourself and the left. It's all very typical. The Democrats haven't done anything since the 1990s. yes I’m the scared one. Lol You literally scream and cry illegals are bringing diseases into the country, then when a disease hits the country you wanna act like it’s not big deal. Hey, weird how trump was pretty scared last night huh? Pffft, your about as intelligent as the crust of those boogers in your eyes you get when you wake up.

If you didn't have investments before the CV created crash you missed and amazing early 2020 rally. What I’m finding interesting is precious metal prices are dropping. Usually in times of uncertainty they go up. I guess with manufacturing down the use of gold and silver (electronics, medical) is down. Just a week or so ago gold was over $1600 an ounce, silver around $18. Both have been on a steady decline since.

Nah, I'm overblowing all the names I got called for the last few months, all the nasty things said about socialism, all the thing said about Americans don't want that, and how those same people don't have a thing to say about their guys using FAT socialism to mitigate disaster. If you don't see the irony and hypocrisy then you are blind or just another mouth talking BS with no personal integrity or true belief to back it up; just another mindless establishment dem parrot.

So I get the European travel ban trump implemented.
What I don’t get is why is the UK exempt from the ban? Boris Johnson is his clone.

See, this is the thing that bothers me. We are having a hard time getting folks tested.. That means we really don't have good numbers to judge where this is headed. What you don't know won't hurt you? #trumplogic

Trump says a lot of dumb things, and most of the time, makes very little sense anyway. Why people even listen and expect anything different is beyond me. People give him this excuse like it's some kind of pass all the time. It's Trump, he lies and doesn't know or use facts. Let Trump be Trump... Well that's okay if you are talking about the idiot at the bar who desperately wants to fit in to the point that everything is an exaggeration or defensive posture to try and make himself look good/normal... But they elected this fool as President of the United States! The office demands more and demands accountability! Nobody holds Trump accountable, NOBODY! Well now we are going to see the obvious flaw in that logic play out in a freakin' pandemic! And this isn't a we/them/left/right thing because this virus is apolitical. I think you're misunderstanding me. What I am saying is that 3+ years in, and people still seem surprised by the things he says and the lies and exaggerations he speaks. It says as much about the people who listen and think they will hear something otherwise at this point, as it does about the man Really? I think the people who ignore trumps lies and exaggerations tell me everything I need to know about them not trump. Keep speaking up America! We all know who trump is. Pfft the trump era.

I haven't read through this thread, but decided to post here because I think the answer to my question might be political. So, can someone tell me about the availability for test for COVID-19 and do so w/out being snarky? LOL

As of yesterday, 5 out of one million Americans have been tested. That's the lowest of all nations reported. The next lowest is Japan which has tested 66 out of one million. The highest tests reported per capita is South Korea at 3692 per million. So while I can not directly answer your question as to availability, I can give you the numbers on how many people are being tested. https://www.sciencealert.com/here-s-how-many-coronavirus-tests-per-capita-have-been-completedThere are many reports from several different parts of the country that they're having trouble getting test kits.

From what I understand the USA decided not to use the World Health Organization's testing procedures and developed a USA version of the testing procedures. Pence is on it. In the meantime wash your hands. Oops ... snarky ...sorry.
