Sick burn.

We will print the money just like we did in 2008/9. It is crazy that Romney is suggesting this. Relax.

yup.

We did put cash in the hands of low income folks. Romney is already pushing for cutting a check to every family. Which is crazy.

It's not theory. It is what is happening all over the world. It is being observed as we speak.

Food supply is an essential service that would not be interrupted.

Bought today. If the market is down again tomorrow I will buy something. Basically buying at 1,000 point intervals of the dow.

We agree. Lock it down and then prop it up with stimulus. If this were in political I would have some more caustic comments.

Maybe but I would bet against it. Once there is any sign of recovery we will need a huge stimulus package. In many countries like in 2008 and later. We have to prop up airlines, create a small business packages an maybe send everybody $1,000. The underlying economic data has been very strong. And we have fixed most of what caused the great recession in 2008. Many were predicting a natural correction in the market and we certainly got one. This seems like it would be more of a V shaped recovery based on the economy overall. But I can't predict anything in the market. I'm buying equities all the way down and hopefully more equities when the recovery comes will pay off. If we are under quarantine until November you might be right.

Idiot

I had a small supply. Wanted a bigger one lol.

Somebody suggested the federal government can't mandate a quarantine. But my google seems to say it can through the CDC. https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/aboutlawsregulationsquarantineisolation.html Hopefully someone smarter than me can clear this up.

Here is another source. Slightly different numbers but the point is the same.

Bough $400 of liquor today. Bring on the quarantine!

Please take this garbage to political so the grown ups can continue this thread.

^ There aren't going to be riots and nobody is advocating for martial law. We need to do what the rest of the world is doing and stay the hell home. In the USA we have too many people who think its business as usual. Don't need tanks in the streets but fine people for going out for no reason.

I don't care to whom you are referring. I will bitch a about this country as I like.

My anti-American sh* is not passive at all if that helps. Neither is my pro-American sh*t.

good contribution.

PA is closing some its state run liquor stores. I know where i am going tomorrow.

Agree. This is why we need the federal government to make some more definitive decrees.

We don't know the long term affects of the virus. Maybe those who got Covid when they were you have an increased risk of cancer later. Also we may not know the exact mortality rate but young people are dying. This article suggests at a rate similar to SARS (.2%).

This isn't terribly different than what is happening here. Just slower and at a state and municipal level. Schools are closing and almost all sports cancelled and many companies are encouraging working remotely. Problem is we don't have the sense of collectivism. Some politicians are encouraging people to go out. Heck I got lectured on here by some dipstick yesterday for self quarantining. "Gubmint can't tell me what to do! This is America damnit!

Nah. Here is what is affected. https://freethoughtblogs.com/kriswager/2020/03/12/shutdown-of-denmark/
