Id like to think that I am rational, but your post is rather dismissive. First off, first hand knowledge, 2 people in my dept at work died from covid. Out of 14 makes us seem like grim damn reapers.


So no, the deaths are not made up...


Inflated? you be the judge: first hand knowledge once again


a) a family member works for AHN in pittsburgh. A medical facility visit with a covid person, who either lives OR dies, causes $9000-$13000 depending on services to be paid by the fed. 'cleaning' they call it which may or may not be true. The family member who works for them processes the paperwork so sees the 'cash flow'


b) my painter, who was to paint the white 'saddle shoe' accent on my show truck was set to do such, but went on a bike ride with his gal on I80 into ohio. They swerved to miss a truck tire that came off a semi. Doing so rolled the 3 wheel 'motorcycle' and under another semi they went. The tandems got her, she was squashed like a grape. He went under the pumpkin and got slugged at 65mph. He technically had a heartbeat for a short while after, if not most of his skull. Most of you read the story in the press. Some of you know their names. Both were found to have cv19 antibodies (but no evidence they were symptomatic at the time) so their death certifs, which you can look up from either clarion county or the ohioan county where it occurred (I80 just inside the state) have covid listed. The family members are quite aggravated. It is fraud, and it is/was being done to support a narrative and no other reason. (this is not the FIRST automobile accident in PA reported as a covid death) This is not mundane and no 'rational person' should accept this practice. But alas, "orange man bad, tweets mean", so here we are.....and people, some who post here, defend it and expect me to take them seriously.

Insurers had virtually no claims last year due to people avoiding medical facilities unless they had covid. And covid treatment is paid for by taxpayers.

Did anyone see a drop in their health insurance rates? Why not?

A week in the life. His wife dies from Covid. He lets people know. He confronts his grief by obsessively posting familiar memes before, during, and after. What a guy.

Amazing what is going on with schools these days in the bad districts. Wow! Can't imagine this in the better districts. I feel for these areas that are just filled with crime and lousy lives, but they seem to like that kind of live as they are against police and laws.

They can't even have a playoff game there. Geez. Thankful I never had to deal with such a thing.

That’s what happens when you live in a nation where guns are legal. You just fall off the turnip truck?

Nah, it’s what happens when the revolving doors of justice swing too easily.

I hear those places are wonderful. It’s interesting how folks in those places want out, but the folks that complain about the US don’t want in there

If you think about it, the current policy of letting them kill each other on the streets really has no revolving door of justice. It saves taxpayers a lot of money. And I don't think they're subsidizing funerals yet, so the burden falls on the parents rather than taxpayers. I've been persuaded it's a good policy.

What again is your explanation for the spike in deaths?


This is why anecdotes don't work, even if you had 400,000 of them. I could counter with anecdotes with peoples' whose passing could or should have been listed as COVID and weren't. That doesn't matter, unless its your assertion that the increase in overall number of deaths is a hoax.
