Litigation and judgements are made on statistical fact, not presumed assumption and speculation.
Huge class action lawsuits are in the works, over this overblown government reaction.

On your absurd posts that have no substance you bet I do. You have presented no facts, none. Just gibberish.

When government shuts your private business down when no rights have been violated and that business has caused no harm, THAT is House Arrest. Granted one needs a thought process that takes it to the next level.

Next please.

Because it doesn't take much effort to prove you wrong. Just like I did in this post. And when it's about policy. Oh that's right, you wont discuss policy. Which is what this thread is about.
LOL. As if you discuss policy.

Instead you are insisting that posters do not use their spouses name - something which apparently you know nothing of - but felt you had to comment anyway.

LOL Still deflecting while avoiding discussing policy.
Our public education system in America is lacking.

Statistically, it has been a hoax.

Ron Paul has lost any shred of credibility he may have had.

Statistically we have 28% of the world's dead from this virus. It could have been far worse had not the governors (of either party, depending upon the state) stepped in to the leadership vacuum left by Trump and taken some decisive action.

By exaggerating the death toll, panic was incited and the very worst, most extreme possible reaction was instigated. Of course now that our leaders have collectively done this to us, they will go to their graves insisting it was necessary and the right thing to do.

But, what if it wasn't? And truth be told, it increasingly looks like this may have been an overreaction.

Dr. Paul is correct. They should not be allowed to get away with this.
They did the travel restrictions and lockdowns too late. They waited until long after the visibility in the counts of infections. The CDC waited a month after the first infections in the US and the lockdown in China before announcing that the pandemic would likely spread here, and the US domestic restrictions didn't happen for another month. They had plenty of time to ramp up medical supplies. People on Wall Street had been told in February to start hoarding everyday items.

The death rate is not the issue. It's the high hospitalization rate, especially for people in the age 50 and over who are the business owners, managers, and executives, and the stress on the hospital system. They've always said flattening the curve was to ensure the medical system could accommodate the sick.
