It’s a tough call. Either way people are going to be uncomfortable or die, but my guesses are with the shutdown being the better choice. Considering that pandemics are just compound interest with a very high interest rate and a very short compounding period (take out a loan at 250% interest per week and tell me how that works out for you), I’m surprised at the lack of serious response from the guy running things south of 49. This was in the recent online offerings; https://arstechnica.com/science/2020...o-much-to-ask- for-an-actual-plan/ Ends with; A reality-based plan, clearly communicated by people who understand it, will help the public understand three things: what sacrifices will need to be made, what we will get in return for them, and, most importantly, how these sacrifices will be brought to an end. It's tragic that, nearly three months into this growing crisis, we still lack such clear communications from our leaders. Over here; our 'illustrious leader";Scotty from Marketing, is seeing various state leaders break ahead of his feet lagging and hammering the early isolation to cut the growth. |

I can't figure out what Newsome thinks he's doing saying that a couple of
weeks from now isn't long enough to keep businesses shut down. Its been two weeks already and in another couple of weeks all of the restaurants, the largest business sector, will be dead. If your auntie was Nancy Pelosi, you could try your hand at being Governor too! Not quite his aunt. Apparently Nancy Pelosi is the wife of the brother of the ex-husband of Gavin Newsom's aunt. |

Interesting analogy. Going a bit further, it seems immunity and bankruptcy are two sides of the same coin, while death works the same for both compounded debts and pandemic illness. Looks like we elected an experience-qualified guy after all. -- |

Looks like we elected an experience-qualified guy after all. I guess, except his “go-to” move is declaring bankruptcy and letting the other people deal with the mess. So, if you’re paying 250% a week interest on a loan, when is a good time to start selling stuff on Craigslist for a two week repayment program? The correct answer is As Soon As You Borrowed The Money. The second best answer is Right ****ing Now! |
