He also said his store did a half a million dollars in sales the previous day , six times the average !!

I'm standing on my soap box. COVID-19 will pass with most healthy able bodied human beings surviving. Unfortunately some aged and health vulnerable will not. However the economic impact will not recover efficiently enough to save large and small business that employee millions of people here and abroad and the exponential trickle down effect will be devastating. Be prepared my friends.

UNFORTUNATELY?? UNFORTUNATELY some "aged and health vulnerable (human beings) will not"? UNFORTUNATELY??


Not sure how old you are, Frank, but that statement is the most insulting thing anyone has said (so far as I am aware of) since this health emergency started! You think the economy is more important than the lives of our fellow citizens? Are you that shallow a human being?


I can't share how your selfish comment truly makes me feel, because I don't want to get removed from ClassRacer, but you should be ashamed for posting it here!

Then what do we do?

Go to grocery stores. PA closed the state-run liquor stores but grocery stores are still selling beer and wine.

The media has done a horrible job in giving information on the Corona virus. Yes it can be devastating I am very concerned for those that it can affect. Instead of giving concise important information we can apply to our individual age/ situation they make it sound everyone on the face of the planet is going to be on a respirator if you get it. Nothing further than the truth... Let’s go for the ratings since it’s the only semi fake news they seem to have.
We have influenza viruses floating around as we speak that are more deadly and not a word about them. There was no reason for shutting down the world for this particular situation. If they shut businesses down for this what about the next flu virus???
I busted my *** to save up and retire now I lost over 150k from my 401k. It will come back but hopefully in time for me.
I’m 71 years old and like everyone else don’t want to get sick and die, I have a lot of racing I want to do yet....

If you really been listening to real media you would have heard that there is no vaccine developed. What may be developed will take a year to make it publicly available. If our public health workers are impacted by the virus there will be fewer healthcare people to help the mounting sick.

A smart leader would not have terminated the very agency that handles Pandemics. Or ignore the facts coming from other counties that were warning us about the impending danger. There are several other agencies that have responsibility to support crisis like this are not getting any direction or orders to proceed.

So instead of giving direction...corporations are going to get a bailout of our Socialist money because they were too cheap to invest in their own companies.

Now instead of talking about a recession there is a real possibility of a depression. Already there are companies preparing to declare bankruptcy. Massive layoff that will make the near Bush depression look mild.

Too bad if the media is inconveniencing your life to save others.

Are you really this dense?
Again, cut the liberal talking points.
That's all I will say, otherwise this thread will get deleted. Not fair to the thread's author.
