Education is the only industry where we consider diversity of products and services, primarily provided by the private sector, is a bad thing.

Surprise! We spend a fortune for very modest results. And no, the problem isn't money, libtards, we spend considerably more per child than any European or Asian country that is beating our asses.

Which is precisely why people should have 3-6 months of expenses saved up in an emergency fund. Also why: Fuck big daddy government, they aren’t there to save your ass, they shouldn’t be, and you shouldn’t be relying on them to do so.

To those who say “There is NO Way I can save up that much money;” you have some critical thinking to do, choices to make, and math skills to sharpen.

president fuckface did not want to shut everything down, it was more librul individuals who want to close all businesses and think that money grows on government decrees, and that you can print food.

The allure of living in an “urban hub full of culture and diversity” will be lost once people realize the stores in the City no longer have food on their shelves. I guess they’ll have to move to flyover country with those rednecks so they can have space to try to become self sufficient.

Easy to fix! Cannibal Anarchy!

Librul City folk eat yer own. We ain’t got no food for you no more

FACTS!!!

There is no east way out. You trade off economy for dead.

The real danger isn't anyone injecting Lysol.

The real danger is people believing the MSM, again, even now after they have been caught in a transparent lie for the 10,000th time.

The MSM is Lysol injected into the brain.

They don't seem to have reported any dead there, just an increase in "cases" which we all know now have been vastly under-estimated anyway, by a factor of something like 50.

MAGA!!!

marcus says

At least I'm smart enough to know that you don't know which came first. I don't either, but the Merkel one is very old

What we need is a real good pride parade. Because “love and anal” cures everything.

Can cannibal anarchy be far behind? Cause yams just ain't gonna cut it.

rigidmember says

space to try to become self sufficient

Space yes but even farmers don't have gardens cause they got (had) the food bar at the Golden Corral to provide their essential 4 food groups. Sweet tea, fried food, jello and soft serve.

More sensationalized bullshit from the msm media, though I’m not sure Time has been relevant in the past few decades.

Selective quotes, editorialized content using words like “skyrocketing”, and an article about an article that misrepresents what the source document says.

The msm is fucking evil.

Ever notice those that don't want people cured, or people to get back to work, they seem to cherish that there will be a definite food shortage, if the Lunatics are allowed to continue running the Asylum.

So to answer all of our Nagging Question, Yes this is a fucking psyops intentional Liberal Mind Fuck Hoax, and everything we fear that might happen. Is exactly what they have in mind.

This election season is going to be cake walk for every Republican looking to flip a seat and for Trump to keep his.
That's if we even get to an election. I'm fine with Trump ruling indefinitely until we can sort the Commies out in all of our institutions.

12 More Years, there's evil afoot.

Fortwaynemobile says

Especially HIV.

How come nobody is suing Trump for 'crushed toe reparations'?

:
No this can't be right. Geniuses here have repeatedly told us that it's the opposite. Even people dying in car crashes are being considered - cause of death: Covid 19.

i've seen it on at least three Trump cultist memes, it must be true. Now you try to tell me that it's actually the opposite ?

WE need to get TPB in here to sort this out.

He's so much smarter than the rest of us, I'm sure he has a cuss filled incoherent rant that will resolve this confusion for us.

:

Media: "Check out what Trump just said."

Trump Cultists: "Look, look, the media is lying again. This is actually good for Great Leader. "

Wonder what killed the excess? Doesn't matter as long as some were RepCons.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2020/04/27/covid-19-death-toll-undercounted/?arc404=true

LOL! Obviously due to the Lock-downs! The chart clearly shows the death count was tracking seasonal average from beginning of the year all the way through early March, then suddenly jumped starting in Mid-March, exactly when the lock-downs started. Did the government release Covid-19 on the population at the same time as locking-down? I hope not; even if it did, there would be a 1-4 week delay between any deliberate release/spraying and death count shooting up. What happened was the Lock-down policy itself and media scare tactics preventing people from getting necessary medical care for other diseases!

The Left's innumeracy is truly astounding. In order to show Covid-19 causing extra deaths, they should cite numbers showing much higher death counts than normal before the lock-downs. What the chart showed was actually two facts that knowledgeable people have been pointing out for a long time:

1. Covid-19 doesn't kill more people than normal flu season does;

2. Lock-down policies (and the media driven scare) kill people!

BTW, WP made the same mistake in pointing out the rising stroke deaths among people in their 30's, 40's and 50's in recent weeks/days. The reason for the rise is quite obvious: people not seeking/getting prompt medical attention when they get unexplained head-aches, and the Lock-down is increasing the use of Cocaine and Crystal Meth, both are known for causing strokes (possibly also due to the media exaggerating the flu resulting in scaring people with high blood pressure away from taking their usual ACE-inhibitor meds).

HEYYOU says

Reminds me of Iraq has WMD.

Which BTW, Trump threw Jeb Bush under the bus for, if you recall the 2016 primary.

If anything, Trump's been the most anti-war President for the past several generations.

Before you respond with the same olde song and dance ....

Yes, I have a Part I which was finished during Iran's drone strike over the gulf region where Trump did not go the way of Bolton. Notice, it was almost half a year ago ...

https://patrick.net/post/1325271/2019-06-21-sorry-fellas-but-trump-s-calling-off-the-iran-strike-may-be-his-greatest-moment

Before I get to Part II, let me start with this ... I was not interested in politics AT ALL, prior to the bitches protesting the elections in Boston and NYC, during Jan of 2017, which in their collective minds, was perhaps worse (?) than the cozen fraud which was the 2000 Florida re-count, costing Al Gore Junior, yes an academic & environmental loser, but not a war wonger like GW Bush and his [ sarcasm on ] dream team [ sarcasm off ] of Cheney & Rumsfeld.

Since then, all I've heard was something I'd known since 1985 and that was that Trump was a sleazebag. Surprise, I'm 40 today and I can recognize ppl calling each other names on a schoolyard. This is no different than tactics used by kids in grade school. We all know Trump's personality; the question is 'is he putting our boys in harm's way?'

https://patrick.net/post/1329394/2019-12-29-rin-s-response-to-bogus-christian-outrage-on-trump-s-character-or-lack-of

The answer to that is no. In fact, Trump is the first president in our post-LBJ world who's doing whatever's possible, to minimize the pre-existing land wars in place, while at the same time, keeping the Pentagon and contractors, fat and happy with money, so that his family isn't assassinated.

So now, we're at the General Soleimani moment, where once again, ppl are acting as if it were some sanctioned assassination in a non-war zone home country ...

https://patrick.net/post/1329495/2020-01-04-was-qassem-soleimani-gunned-down-at-his-home-in-iran-as-if-it-were-some-mafia-hit

No, the good general was in a grey war zone attempting to start another guerilla action. He put himself in harm's way and like anyone else in a similar situation, he payed the price.

The result, a feeble missile volley to which Trump responded with more sanctions.

So my question to the remaining Democrats is... "Where's the Gulf of Tonkin incident here?"

Why is it that for each military crisis, Trump doesn't respond with sending in 200K-500K troops like LBJ before him? Perhaps it's time to admit that in fact, our election process does work and when the country, meaning the entire land mass, not just the urban centers of Boston, NYC, DC, Chicago, LA, & SF actually places its votes, that those votes should count.

There are 200,000 troops deployed overseas today

Throughout the Cold War, there have been US troops scattered around the globe. So today should reflect a bit of that past ...

https://www.visualcapitalist.com/u-s-military-personnel-deployments-country/

Let me add up ALL the mid east countries of Afghanistan, Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain (no war there), Qatar, Turkey, Jordan, UAE, and what's our total .... 34K-35K?

Wait! Where's everyone else?

Let's see ... between Japan, South Korea, Italy, and Germany, that's already 109-110K? Hold on ... aren't those areas outside of active or grey war zones? Wait, so is half our overseas armed forces out of harm's way, living in post Cold War boundaries, awaiting post-Soviet ...

I'm sure Trump is too. Note the use of the word "rule". Unfortunately for he and thee the constitution doesn't allow it. That doesn't mean he won't try, in fact I expect him to do so. He would need the support of the armed forces, which I don't believe he has, to pull off the coup.

Yup. I've got multiple sources locally for produce and meat without stepping foot into a grocery store if I want. I could get a whole pig or cow tomorrow if I wanted. I've done all three phases. City, suburban and rural. Rural takes the cake if you can get in with the townies. Fortunately with kids that was a breeze. In 6 short years we're considered townies which is as good as gold in rural areas if you move into them.

Cities are shitholes and I think people be getting scared....

When you have no facts, use outright slander.

ThreeBays says

The plants are impacted by people getting sick from the virus.

Quote from article:

Tyson Foods shuttered a large pork-processing plant in Iowa on April 22, after several workers tested positive for the coronavirus

So because a few people get sick with a cold, the whole damned plant has to be shut down? Is that more consistent with Trump or the panicked left wing idiot policies?

They want to cut supply to raise demand and therefore prices. Batshit flu is the excuse. Pigs/Livestock have their prime for tasting the best, but what 90% of what people buy in the grocery store is pure junk meat. You can throw a shitty "prime" or "choice" sticker on it, but that doesn't change what it is. They can let the cows and pigs chill for another 6 months and fuck with the supply chain to fuck with prices

Most people in cities and even suburbs have zero clue what good, quality tasting meat is. Fuck, most people are freaked out now that they have to learn how to cook..lol. This really has been an enlightening experience to see how stupid people really are.

And this is why everyone thinks left is retarded. Priorities are so fucking stupid.

WookieMan says

Meat prices in my barrio neighborhood supermarket are down about 30% since corona began. Which is unusual and kinda difficult to explain, other than day laborers not having any money.

I think Tyson is just going for guberment cheese.

But more than a couple of people are getting sick at these plants. check out the pork plant in Sioux Falls South Dakota, like 900 people tested positive. Not fake news

rdm says

like 900 people tested positive

Being positive and being sick are two different things.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostakovitch says

You have to read his life's literary ouvre and reflect on the LARGER CONTEXT of his life and times and philosophy - exactly like considering the writing of Saint Augustine in which a nuance within a subtlety shaded by sui generis biographic background provides, if we're brave, insight into a timeless truth. Yes, only then can we view the soul of this hero.

Well said!

rdm says

you may be right here, what matters (for Tyson to decide the course of action) is where they get more $$$
rdm says

tested positive is not sick.
