Now that I am back in the house for good today, I have a few comments and questions for everyone to consider re: sbd's alleged good news
list in post 11396.
First of all there are lots of things mentioned in that list which are HIS OPINIONS ONLY and/or are based on SCATTERD SELECTIVE events which
statistically speaking are NOT statistically valid or reliable and certainly not ones where someone can draw any conclusions
One glaring example is that in #12 once again he talks about one country in Georgia outlawing Coca Cola to be dispensed in Coke or soda machines
because they agreed with the decision to move the All Star Game out of Atlanta Colorado.
He has also made the absurd allegation that because of this political statement boycotts will take all over the country and world so that Coke
eventually goes Chapter 11.
To keep it simple, I will ley you decide whether it is likely that say counties in Mass, New York, California and for that matter just about any country
in the country is going to follow suit because one isolated country in Georgia chose to do so.
Above is a perfect example of what sbd has done too many times to count over the 15 months since he opened his thread, namely to pick
ONE source of information, doctor, etc. and to claim that because something which is said and/or done, that it must be believed and that
all sources which disagree with this notion are wrong.
Also there is one other matter which need to be considered here:
Can it be assumed that all of the alleged good things which are happening are simply because of the repercussions of Trump and/or do you think that some of these
things may have happened anyways.
Take for example the Coronavirus and the dramatic drop in infections and deaths of late some of which has happened on its own volition, some of
which may have happened because people word masks and practiced social distancing and/or because of the overall effect on the vaccine?
Do you think that some of that may be at least one of the reasons why things are getting better, confidence is being restored, etc?
Let me give you one small example from my home state of Massachusetts.
As anyone who follows politics knows, Governor Charlie Baker, who is a Republican has been extremely conservative in fully opening up the state,
which occurred about a week ago.
If Mass. isn't the last state to open up fully, lets just say that it is near the top.
My point is that since he did open up the state, the changes in the number of people going shopping, eating in restaurants, and the lines have for just about
anything you can name have gone up dramatically as evidenced by everyone including me.
Again though the question is how much of this is because Trump's doing, Biden's doing and or just because of the natural flow of events which one
would expect under the circumstances?
I am not going to try to ram an of my opinions down your throat, which is sbd's modus operandi, but am just tossing this out as something
to think about.
