    @Germ
    How many rt. leaners will want a gov. Check? I can tell you straight up, no one in this family . Why because I was taught , husband was taught and we taught our kids to make good. choices. Everyone that works outside of home is working. Job choice, no matter the degrees. All have several different assets in several different arenas. No one is holding huge debt.. There are many rt. Leaning folks just like us. We know NO ONE IN THE WORLD OWES US A THING. The lefts of today think EVERYONE OWES THEM, for a absolutely nothing. Can not deny that they publicly proclaim it daily. They will be the first in line hand stretched.
    Before you go where I think, I grew up in a Kennedy house hold Democrat for Over 40 yrs. Hubby politically active, office holding Rebublicans. The only true Right here was Self Respect,Good judgement, and common sense.
    Great you support Trump employees credit for some common sense.

    It's my view if you are on a taxpayer health plan then you are going to need to follow a plan set by your doctor and if you don't then your health is your responsibility.

    Absolutely, now if I go see my mom did she assume the risk to be exposed to a large group? Or when I need to go shopping did the teller assume the risk of the large gathering? Basically that's what I would be doing in this situation after I put myself at risk at the party. Anyone I come into contact with is at risk for my choice to go to the party.
    See that's where we go down a rabbit hole I don't know the answers too nor am I smart enough to understand.

    Maybe this a selfish viewpoint. But the way I see it, with all these spending bills. We are going to see massive inflation. So whether I take the check or not, my money in the bank will be worth less in a few months than it is now, so I mine as well take the check.

    I'm not sure if there's been any mention to liability from the party or not. Haven't seen any mention anyway, be interesting to see if several ppl come back positive. There's also no mention of the type of party is was. So idk if it was some sort of "official" function or just some idiots decided was time to party.

    I do know a few bars were doin some sort of one last party type thing. But pretty sure by the time these two mentioned happend the stay at home order had already happened, so bars woulda been closed.

    Hopefully they know what they are getting into. Last Wed. at work was talking to my supervisor, his daughter is a nurse and text him that she is highly leaning towards going to NYC for a few weeks. She told them they are offering $10k pee week.

    Not sure how true the monetary portion is, but if true, I hope people are not expecting an ewsy paycheck.

    I just wonder how all of the overworked healthcare professionals there now and have been from the start are going to be able to pack up and head to other states as Cuomo promised.

    Actually, it's going to be something if Cuomo can keep half the promises he has been making the past week.

    If someone were to need clothes in the next few weeks, they are poor planners. Who doesn't have a couple tv's and radios?

    And mascara???? Bwahahaha. ANY woman who wears it will NEVER run out in a month of Sundays. They have at least 3 in the bathroom, couple more in the second bathroom, a few more in the dresser, a couple in her car and at least one in every purse she owns.

    LOL.

    My point was there are places open where a person can get most everything one "needs" not "wants".

    If people would just bite the bullet for a few weeks, we will see the light at the end of the tunnel. But because of all the me, I,I,I, me me me people, this is going to go on longer.

    “I can tell you I am shaking hands continuously,” Johnson told reporters in a clip that has since gone viral on Twitter. “I was at a hospital the other night where I think there were actually a few coronavirus patients and I shook hands with everybody.”

    Wonder if anyone will shake his hand.

    That I fully understand, so it originated in bats, who knows exactly how it was able to make the leap to humans,(I have my theory and hold to it steadfastly) but now it may be transmitting from human back to other mammals and potentially able to jump back to humans again.

    How many mammals are asymptomatic? Next you'll be hearing about avian carriers or mosquito/tick transmissions.

    I don't actually believe that will be the case, but I do believe that China created this. Not originated there, but was created in a bio-weapon manner and escsped. Who the hell knows how they modified and engineered it.

    I do hope one thing though, that when it comes to light what happened and how China screwed the world they are held accountable with severe punishment by the World as a whole.
