What about the one who can’t buy anything and dies because you shut down these sellers???

Should you be prosecuted for manslaughter?

But what happens after 3 weeks? A shutdown only works if it complete eradicates the virus. It probably won't so then after 3 weeks we open back up and a month later we are back to where we are now. We cannot keep yoyoing like that.

You should read the WaPo article on this. It made a pretty good case for why a shutdown is hopeless in the long run and it is better to just slow-go the virus with social distancing.

Tonight see if either one talk about holding a real job or running a actual company. Neither one has ever created a job.
Trusting a guy who has filed multiple BKs, won't release his taxes and all of his cronies are in jail is better?

He was getting death threats. That's when he decided to donate them. Do you think people will forget what he did just because he donated the bottles?

It is deeply immoral for you to force your idea upon them at gunpoint.
You dont care about free people from conversations with you. You said if people are enslaved in the diamond mines or in China where you get your business supply from, is no concern of yours.

Just about every successful business man has had companies and ideas that did not work. The other 90% do and that's whey they are successful.

I'll remember this comment when you say that Trump needs to stay president because the economy is great under him and it is only because of him... And I thought that Trump said this wasn't an economic crisis? Interest rates to zero sounds like a crisis righting.

Successful business? Trump, a man who filed bankruptcy 6 TIMES, is NOT a good businessman. My favorite candidates are out of the race. I don't support Biden. America is out of their minds for supporting a man who is developing some form of dementia when the other candidates were mentally competent. Assuming Biden wins the nomination, I won't vote for anyone for POTUS.
