About the economy being shutdown the rest of the year. And the fact that you wouldnt have a issue with it leads me to believe you wont be affected if that does happen.

Has it crossed your mind that whatever we do, we will not avoid permanent consequences? If that hasn't crossed your mind, you might need to bone up on the history of pandemics.

I love the bleeding heart conservatives coming out of the woodwork with this suicide pandemic scenario. Good to see how sensitive you are to the plight of the depressed.

But let's not forget all these same people are at risk to be killed by wild bands of marauders out doing home invasions to find food.

My dilemma is do we encourage these depressed people to have guns or not? They'll need them for the marauders but they might use them to off themselves.

It's tough to take threads seriously when the OP can't even spell.

And there it is. If anyone wanted to know what agenda some have about all of this and pushing this fear and pushing over bloated numbers and pushing panic, there you go.

not sure the average American will be OK with that.
Whoa now, let's start from the beginning.

A for profit corporation that makes it's money by drawing attention puts someone out there making extreme and dire predictions.

Now I know what 12 year old on-line trolls can aspire to for careers....running major media outlets.
