I hope that everyone panics. I have faith that their fear will cause that to happen.

Is that how I do it, Zoren? Hope and faith are foreign concepts to me

Tl;dr: 18 month pandemic, multiple waves. Invocation of Defense Production Act. Degradation and possible failure of state/local gov't, critical infrastructure, and telecom networks. Significant shortages for government, private sector, and individual U.S. consumers.

If this has an 18 month timeline, I'm not just worried about the virus anymore. I'm worried about the people who lost their jobs 18 months ago who now think they're going to try and rob me. There's nothing dumber or more dangerous than a mob of scared, broke and hungry people.

Chuck do you agree that humans are far more sinister than the virus?
Mankind have annihilated more humans in history.

I knew when I mentioned the name of omnipotent One I get fired.

Have you ever thought that this crisis is the own doing of mankind because of our inequities?

I stop here...Because when all fails and nothing is ever certain. Those are the only 2 virtues I hold to survive.

Stay safe guys. Hopefully we see the end of the tunnel alive.

Dude, if the solution to mankind's problems was a god, we'd have a lot less problems. Any deity that has the ability to prevent mass deaths but doesn't because you don't spend enough time on your knees telepathically swearing allegiance is not a benevolent deity. Any deity who gives kids terminal cancer does not deserve worship.

Chuck I sympathize with your belief and I wont go against it. I respect you.
I believe everyone has the duty to provide some sense of comfort and security in this difficult times. That is what all of us should do.

I had to sit down in front of my kids last night and I had to give them
Something...any sense of comfort to water down there fears. I just had to.

I work in a hospital everyday Im exposed to patients with flu and has not been tested for COVID19. But we the nurses, MD and other health professionals still provide care everday.

Like I said I stop there. Lets go back to fun times in the forum!

A virus cannot be sinister. It is neither good nor evil - it just is. Totally and completely amoral.

And the way it is, is the way God made it.

I agree! What I meant or implied to being sinister is mankind. Humans has killed more people than the virus.

Thats actually what Im worried about the aftermath of the crisis in terms of economic meltdown...and we know whats next.


Price of prostitution goes down!!!!
Just releasing stress! Lol

Lets have fun guys...drive your Z its open traffic everywhere.

If this lock down gets worse and goes longer than for 4 weeks. You will see mobs out roaming looking for food. Most people only have food for about 2 weeks.

Those of us in hurricane country have been conditioned to have enough food and water for a month, but then it becomes Thunderdome.

We all hope not. Folks in the bigger cities have something to worry about. Me, I have my own heard of deer roaming the property. 15 to 20. I am good.
