The precedent for this again goes back to the Spanish flu, where millions died. Corona-virus doesn't have anything close to that fatality rate. Message here is houses made of paper can be washed away by any crisis, real or manufactured.

If stocks can go up 32% in 2019 with corporate earnings up about 4%, they can go down 25% with a flatish earnings forecast for the year 2020.

It won't be long before Coronavirus makes Social Security solvent again, with lots of government squandering wiggle room. MAGA!
Cull the weak! Coronavirus is good social parasite medicine! OOPs! Did it kill the doctors, too?

try living in a country where it's exactly what you want, China, Venezuela... sorry you missed soviet union that one didn't work out. But the other 2 are still there sort of. Fucking utopia!
The reason they have been telling us all that government is no good is because the oligarchs were gaining monopoly over the use of government by using their corrupt influence more boldly all the time
Get it? Government is no good for us, only them.
Government is THE tool.
Government Is the keys to the kingdom.
The sooner you get that through your head the sooner you can start fighting FOR it, not against it.
Like they do!

You might be right - death rate for over 70 year olds is many times that for younger people.
WIN-WIN!
As AF would say, we can now invest surplus of Social Security in Uzbek stock fund managed by Kazakhstan company!

Beware short term bias. We are still more than 3 times where we were 10 yrs ago.
x3 / 10 yrs ain't bad.
Could be (or become) a lot worse.

My state Virginia has turned Blue in the last election because of redrawn districts, the growth in DC suburbs, carpet baggers from Blue states, and an increased population of illegals. This new Dem majority is now seriously pushing driver's licenses for illegals along with automatic voter registration at the DMV.

Either that or they have to pay regular market rate for it or maybe they won't be able to get insurance. If they're rich enough - let them build.
GOOD!
The National Flood Insurance Program should be abolished as well. What a total moral hazard. 80% of houses build on the East Coast (not just Florida) over the past 70 years would never have been so if regular insurance markets were in force. Same for regions that are large flooding plains inland too.
So all existing policies should be amended such that the next time a house gets trashed from flooding or a storm, the government DOES pay it out...but policyholders then sign over their land to the government, which puts into conservativeship or something like that. No more rebuilding over and over againl
Either that or they have to pay regular market rate for it or maybe they won't be able to get insurance. If they're rich enough - let them build.

Nobody in the US has died yet. Don't hold your breath waiting to cheer. Meanwhile plenty of people have died every day since the CV came to the US due to traffic accidents, homicide, heart disease, cancer, and the flu.

The Democrats are between a rock and a hard place.
If Bernie is the candidate, he will lose Florida=lose the election.
If they screw Bernie, a lot of the losers will just not get off the couch to vote, they will not have party loyalty to the hypocrites in the DNC.
I guess this is the final stage of the total humiliation of the loser party.

I do. I was on the team the designed the 7500 in the picture as well as other PCR machines. Every fucking hospital in the country has a PCR machine. It's like the soda station at McDonalds as far as molecular biology labs go and not hard at all.
It's ridiculous we haven't been testing way more people. It's cheap, fast and super sensitive. Perhaps false positives but so what. Complete malpractice on the part of our government agencies who've been lying their asses off.
Anyone think testing for the COVID-19 virus will be easy

Each machine which is super cheap by the way can test nearly 384 people in one run. Have to leave some wells for controls. It takes a couple of hours. It's been over a decade since I worked on them but back then some companies sold tetrad machines. They held 4 plates of 384 wells each so could be way more by now for all I know.
