Indeed.

Inverted yield curve started over a year ago.

Deficit had already doubled before the pandemic hit.

My sentiments, exactly.

I know. I broke my arm and those stupid doctors wanted to put a cast on me. Da f do they know. I went to my co-workers nanny who prayed for me and put peppermint oil on my arm to heal it. I may be disabled now and unable to use my left arm but I sure put one over on the medical establishment.

Months ago, the guidance was "wear masks." And yet we have our Republican president saying wearing masks is a statement against him. And Republican governors telling Democratic mayors "you can't have mask mandates."

If all we needed to do is wear a mask, it is a damn shame the leadership in this country isn't on board. This is his mess. It was his before and it is absolutely his now.

Or both, with masks lockdown, would've probably gone faster... Also if there were no idiots trying to compare masks to slavery...

Funny how politicians get paid no matter what, huh?


Every talking head you see on TV shaming people for not complying with the shutdowns, wanting to keep their businesses open is still getting paid, still has Cadillac health insurance.

Do we really need to repost the Fauci interview on 60 minutes saying that masks were not needed?
