1. It is a purely psychopathic approach to the problem. These people deserve hanging.

2. Hunter, could you post totals for the South?

3. Post the corresponding unemployment numbers and I will be impressed.

   • Come on goyim, get back to the grind without any concessions in health and safety protocols. ZOG’s GDP demands that you sacrifice yourselves to Mammon.

     • Come on goyim, stay in your homes and starve to death without complaint. You’re unessential.

       During the Spanish Flu epidemic, the United States amassed an army, sent it to Europe, fought a World War, brought the army back, and they didn’t shut down the entire economy nor jail people in their own homes.

       Why would anyone believe that Donald Trump and the Democratic and Republican governors give a damn about public health? Do you really believe they are doing this because they care about Americans?

       • I linked to a podcast about the Spanish Flu the other day.

         During the Spanish Flu, it was even worse. The federal government denied that anything serious was going on because admitting it would have undermined the war effort. Newspapers downplayed the epidemic. Business interests protested modest restrictions at the height of the second wave. Woodrow Wilson ignored the problem. There was an “Anti-Mask League.” The death toll was much worse than it could have been for precisely the same reasons that that 90,000 Americans have died from it today. In contrast, Japan was much less impacted.

       • And 600,000 died. Hurrah! America didn’t shut down its economy during the Spanish Flu. The coffin business must’ve been booming.

           And what is happening now is better … how?

           Locking people in their homes hasn’t stopped the virus. Closing down small business while allowing Walmart to stay open hasn’t stopped the virus.

           Quarantine is isolating the sick and vulnerable. This “lock down” is not a quarantine.

           It’s not being done for public health.

         • The lockdown at this level was caused by Blompf’s jewish advisers recommending that SARS-2 CoV-19 be treated like the flu and not closing the borders back in January (recall that the CIA knew about the virus last November and promptly informed their masters in Tel Aviv) to all flights coming in from China and later from Europe when the coronavirus broke out there.

           Since the federal government fumbled their response to not ‘spook the stonk market,’ it should be their responsibility for the fallout of playing with fire and getting burnt.

           In the first ten days of “The National Emergency,” the (((federal reserve))) pumped 2.2 trillion shekels into the securities exchanges.

           The closing down of small businesses was heavy handed and completely unfair, but again, the financial impact to those businesses in the country would have been a paper cut compared to a gunshot wound had the federal government taken preventative measures against allowing the virus to enter and spread freely back in January when blompf and his Israeli advisers were pushing for war with Iran.

           The federal and at a lesser degree individual states should be on the hook to bailout John and Jane Q. Public with proportionate assistance that the “fat cats” on Wall Street received. Will that happen? Of course not, but that is where all this misdirected aminus should be aimed.

           Italian PM Conte stopped mortgage payments almost immediately, as CoronaChan was taking souls.

           My original point is that there should be concessions made to returning workers in pay, medical coverage, and PPE provided.

           I find it laughable that some have suggested that we sacrifice the over 60 population for the economic benefits of the millennial and zoomer generations. Millennials and Zoomers are the most homo-phillic, pro-miscegenation, open borders, and advocates of cultural marxism in American history. Those generations need to be forcefully reeducated or severely culled. That goes for my pos niece and nephew too.

         • Banned, if you are so worried about ‘Murrica’s economy, you and your best bud RamZ(ionist)Paul can volunteer to take public facing jobs at Walmart and supermarkets.

           I hear jobs like that are plentiful now and they are getting $2 extra an hour danger money. That extra $2 should cover their $100,000 medical bill, if they have go to the intensive care unit for a month.

           All you have to do is convince RamZ(ionist)Paul to leave his isolated compound in the Ozarks. Oh and you will have to get over your paranoid fear of actually living in the USA.

       • The stay at home orders were not to stop or cure the virus. They were put in place so as not to overburden the healthcare system (i.e., flattening the curve).

         Nobody really know when or if there will be a cure or treatment that prevents cascading damage done to SARS-2 patients neurological, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, and pulmonary systems. As a Swedish reader of OD opined, there has never been a vaccine for any previous coronaviruses (e.g., SARS, MERS, and the common cold).

         I don’t know about the rest if you, but I have been to three funerals for workers that died due to SARS-2. One was elderly who had recently beat pneumonia, another was a 31 year old physically fit USPS employee that have given birth to a beautiful baby girl one month before, and a 44 year old security guard at the local high school that had hypertension.

         Don’t worry, you will get your wish soon. The nation is reopening. I’m a pessimist by nature, so I’ll just watch as the chips fall where they may and practice social distancing, wearing of a mask, and good hand hygiene.

         p.s., in my neck of the woods, many small businesses have reopened in a “speakeasy” fashion.

     • Sweden’s GDP is tanking, too. Conservatives are just delusional thinking there was a scenario where GDP would not be negatively effected while allowing a pandemic to kill hundreds of thousands of people, put many more than that out of of work for a month or more, saddle millions with unpayable medical debt, etc. The American economy, based on neoliberal rentier capitalism, was a house of cards waiting to fall. The virus just happened to be the trigger, but it could have been anything.

       The irony is that those who took the virus seriously and eradicated it have been able to get back to normal much more quickly. Five months from now, the USA will still be dealing with this and our economy will still be in the toilet, while New Zealand, Australia, etc. will be doing relatively well. The USA had the opportunity to take a couple of months of pain to eradicate it, but instead chose the potentially years long ordeal of “herd immunity.”

     • Poste Haste. The Economy Needs Him and His.

4. When does 2nd wave start exactly? Thats when the bodies really start dropping. Corona chan is really hitting Brazil hard right now bolsonaro is equally retarded like potato Blumpf and his health minister resigned yesterday because like the gop bolsonaro hates spending money on health care or prevention. Brazil has 12 thousand deaths alone so far

5. Lesson for today:

   See that guy or gal with the essential job?

   Don’t be non-essential.

6. The (((bad guys))) have been looking for any excuse to “shut it down” and send us all back to the 90s, when CNN was a thing, everything TIME magazine wrote was gospel and we all gathered in front of our TV sets to watch prime time network television.

   War(Syria, Russia, China etc.), moral panics (Charlottesville) and now this unfortunate plague.

   The internet and the changes it has wrought has the rats scurrying in terror.

7. Some facts to ponder. Blacks murder about 1000 whites a year. Flutherism will kill 100000 whites in an interval of months, more than blacks will have killed during the next century, and the first act isn’t even finished. We’re holocausting ourselves with individualism. Terrible.
