caring but not being smart enough to understand how liberal ideology discourages hard work and innovation doesn’t do much for me.

Democrats are either scum people or morons. It’s one or the other. Never neither.


It’s not based on the science or based on facts.

This is about controlling the masses!


The masses are seeing case numbers without details & low death counts & that does not warrant destroying lives & livelihoods to justify the political agendas of Dems.

Leaning only a little left these days makes you a borderline nazi in the new democratic party.

Obama would be a Nazi today, thats how far the left has shifted in four years. Biden is somewhat moderate, but there is enough influence from Bernie to shift the party.

Thankfully the online keyboard warrior amateur after-the-fact commentating covidiots, conspiracy nut jobs, hoax advocates, C-19 existence deniers & "it's just a flu, what's all the fuss about" folks weren't in charge. Then all hell would have broken loose (think Armageddon like) & it wouldn't be just a couple million dead, but more like 20,000,000, to say nothing of those suffering from "long covid" & the longterm economic impact of that. Good job, health experts. Hallelujah!

"Seems it's wreaking havoc on the failure called the USA unlike anywhere else......."


X-Files

I have sat back and read the string of posts on this thread, along with all the links provided. You sir, are exactly what is wrong with the world today. Your arrogant, condesending, elitist attitude reveals everything anyone needs to know about you. I am glad you do not live in this great country of ours. Please by all means stay up North in your little nest up there in Canada. Anyone who calls the USA "a failure" does not deserve the privelage to live here and experience the FREEEDOMs that this country espouses to. Many in my family, and countless other great patriots, have fought and died protectiing and defending our freedoms that we enjoy and many take for granted every day.
I have worked in healthcare for the past 26 years. I have worked my ass off every single day to provide the best possible care to those undergoing heart surgery and needing life support such as ECMO. I have seen more death than you could imaging of both the very young and very old. We all can agree that life is so precious and we need to make the most of the time we have. For all the medical professionals who preach lockdown/isolation, there are just as many with countering views....both with science as their guide.
An adage many have heard before in healthcare, "it's about quality of life". Your damn right it is! However, Quality of life is a very subjective term. What one may deem important another may not. Depends who you ask. I try to live my life without regret, to live it to the fullest, and to love to the fullest. I will be spending this Christmas with my 80 year old parents, along with the their grandchildren. They openly and gladly take the risk of possilbe COVID exposure/infection in order to spend time and hug their children and grandchildren, rather than spending it alone isolated from their family. Who am I to deprive them of that.
I will continue to support local small business suffering from the subjective regulations placed upon them by elitist government officials who too often live by their own set of rules. I will continue to travel and fly if need be for work or to visit family. I will continue to send my kids to school so they recieve the best quality education possible and thankfully, they are able to attend, albeit on a limited schedule. I will continue to see my family and friends and not be shamed into isolation. I will continue to wear a mask when necessary and taking the necessary common sense steps of washing my hands and avoiding touching my face.
My view in all of this goes against much of what you have railed about regarding COVID. Every day, I have taken it upon MYSELF to do what I need to proctect me and my family from COVID. I cannot control what others do. I do not live in fear. No one should live in fear. If one is fearful, take upon yourself to control your surroundings. Take it upon yourself to Decide where not to go or where to go. Take it upon yourself to work or not work. I do not judge those who choose to isolate themselves during these times. Your views regarding this virus and how it has impacted your world, does not mean I have to accept them, just as you probably would not accept mine.

You are 100% correct and I for one commend you!! TY very much for all you've done for everyone, as in your field of work I know it must be very difficult to be associated with sick people and death.

Appreciate it guys, although no need to thank me! Kinda funny....I look at your locations and most are from New England/Mass. I grew up there and all of my family is in NY, MA, NH. I miss seeing them over the years when I relocated south but would back home multiple times a year. I feel for you all dealing with the., is oppressive too strong of a word?, COVID mandates the state govt's have instituted. Isn't it ironic that these same leaders who touted such strong restrictions early on and no better off than they were then?? I truly do feel for you all!! Stay healthy out there and I look forward to heading up there over the holiday to see my parents and extended family. I hope I will be able to enjoy some of the great dining spots while there if they aren't completely shut down. Sorry, take out doesn't cut it and those thousands of servers wanting and needing to work deserve our support! I miss some of those great dive bars my buddies and I used to visit as well! God forbid bars be open...but I guess it makes sense since COVID only comes out at night after 10pm! :ohno:

Exactly my point since March when a bunch of giant vaginas called me an asshole and liar on here about COVID.

If I'm a business owner going through this deal, all I want is a chance to survive. Let me decide to open and how to do it safely and my patrons can also do the same. If I'm elderly with pre-existing conditions, I would stay the fuck home and respect those that need to keep this nation humming.

We are litterally locked down like fucking prisoners for the sake of people who can't work anyway and should already be scared shitless enough to catch anything at their age let alone COVID.

Everyone should be at work right now. If you don't want to get sick, stay home and hide in the basement.

This.

I have been saying the same since Easter.

It is simply not right to crush the lives of some of your citizenry to supposedly save the lives of some others of the citizenry.

And the collateral damage of these shutdowns will be epic.

Picture empty office towers in your city. Picture the resulting loss of tax revenue and what it will mean to those cities. Picture the healthy vibrancy of those cities being totally vanquished as a result. Picture empty luxury apartments as people flee the city. The cities will crumble. Crime will skyrocket.

And I've only just begun.

The results of these shutdowns are almost unthinkable.

F'k you. Governors and mayors.

I do not live in fear. No one should live in fear. If one is fearful, take upon yourself to control your surroundings. Take it upon yourself to Decide where not to go or where to go.

That may explain to a large degree why the USA has been such a colossal failure during the pandemic. I suppose the problem largely goes back to the roots of America around 1776.



Fuck off and live in fear in your basement.


Who's in fear? You?


Acting sensibly according to science & health experts advice does not equate to living in fear.


Putting on a bike helmet does not equate to living in fear. But many an idiot refused to wear one & died.


Us who have a brain and balls are too busy enjoying life and worried about a little sniffle and cough! LMAO!!


How many people have had that attitude re seriously dangerous stuff & ended up with serious health problems, e.g. during the early HIV epidemic.


The vast majority are not covidiots & are continuing to enjoy life. What gave you the idea they weren't.


You don't sound like you're enjoying life. Why don't you go do that instead of being here ranting.

Hello Pinocchio, how's the nose today, lol.



Nobody around here bashes anyone more than I do, nobody pushes more buttons than me,


'


The "we" refers ONLY to incredibly stupid people like yourself who don't have either the genes or the intelligence needed to understand/accept the truth


and DOCUMENTED facts expressed so well by X-Files.


The relatively few objective folks who read and post here get, understand and appreciate the great and useful information


he provides here day in and day out!


I tried to after reading this, but I received a message about spreading karma around to other posters.


Keep fighting the good fight X. Willie and others like him would be bored without your contributions here.


X-Files, thanks to your service to the RX forum, Willie will have something to discuss during his unwinding celebrations later this month.






X-You’ve been done an excellent job providing Covid information


Thanks


Actually, I am not defending what he wrote. He is very well spoken and is doing a good job on his own.




Thanks for the Updates X-Files. Keep the info coming!


X-Files-even though I will no longer be posting anything in this section nor in the Rubber Room any later by whatever comes first, Inauguration Day,


or when there is some finality to the results of the Election, I want to personally thank you for all of the informative and factual material you have


compiled and posted in your threads and otherwise re: the Virus, Trump and the Election.


My advice is just ignore the noise and keep on doing what you do because there are other objective and open-minded folks besides


me who appreciate your very fine insightful information!!


Keep up the great work!!


I second this, and, I hope that you'll reconsider, savage1.


Keep posting X-Files....the updates are great!! Haters are gonna hate...cuz that's what they do!


Thanks, soli. I will.


I'm not going to bother responding to all the lies by the pathological liars in the other posts. Blind sheep imitating their loser boy Trump.


Clearly they would rather make false personal insults than address the intelligent posts i have made re the OP topic, etc, with intelligent responses.


Who are they? God? Do they speak for Him? No. So their worthless lying opinions about me are easily dismissed & irrelevant. I know better.


Though their remarks do reveal quite a bit about themselves.

Sweden showed your strategy is a colossal failure:

[FONT=&quot]
The problems with this dangerous strategy is it failed in Sweden.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Sweden has way more total deaths than their 3 Nordic neighbours (Norway, Finland, Denmark) combined while Sweden has a 50% larger population than the 3 of them combined. And Sweden is no better off economically. Clearly hard lockdowns, as occurred in those 3 nations, were the superior choice to Sweden's soft voluntary isolation approach.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]"Sweden dead = 5,918[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Norway dead = 278[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Finland dead = 346[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Denmark dead = 677"[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]High risk people can't "stay away" from others who are infected because they have to work, eat, get medicines, go to clinics & hospitals, live in care homes, & live together with others who are not high risk.
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
To eat, shop, get meds they can use the designated hours already set up for them.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]That won't keep them from being infected from others who are infected at places where they get food, groceries, medicine, clinical or hospital care. And many such places have no "designated hours".[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]Hospitals and doctors would have the same precautions being used currently.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Clinics & hospitals are where high risk people & low risk people congregate. So your plan for them to "stay away" from each other is not going to work. It's going to fail on multiple fronts, in multiple places. Not only in clinics & hospitals, but in grocery stores, work places, sidewalks, public transit, long term care homes, people's personal residences, etc.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]With your plan to let low risk people do whatever they please, even more of them will end up sick & in hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, etc, so even more risk for high risk people going to those places.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]As for work, tough call, I suppose if they can prove they are truly high risk, they should have option to not work and get unemployment, but at reduced rate, not inflated rate.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]With many, if not the vast majority, of countries worldwide that is simply not available and or not an option governments are willing to implement.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]Obviously if in a home or where ever the nurse / aides would need to take precautions..[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Yet deaths continue there even under stricter conditions than you would prefer. You would allow people to do whatever they please, putting those nurses at greater risk of infection, which means the high risk people under their care are at higher risk of death because of your irresponsibility.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]They don't need to eat at restaurants, go to sporting events, concerts until they feel safe. But why keep younger, healthier citizens from doing those things.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]See above. What the irresponsible do in acting less safely affects others who are at high risk. Studies prove this. That's how pandemics work.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Furthermore if younger healthier people do whatever they want & get infected, many of them will get sick & fill up hospitals putting a strain on them & risking them being overwhelmed.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]They same politicians who impose the strictest restrictions even know it's safe to do those things if healthy, even if they try to trick the gullible into being scared to death.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]-Newsom in Cali[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]-Whitmers husband in Mich[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]-Mayor Kenny in Philly[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]-Governor Murphy in NJ[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]All despite telling the citizens under their control that it's not safe to eat out. That is putting others in danger as well. Each of them has been caught eating out with their families against their guidelines.
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]What hypocrites do is irrelevant. Because person A says its wrong to murder but does it himself is not a justification for doing what is wrong or an excuse for you to do the same.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]To err is human. We're all sinners.[/FONT]
