Coronavirus Covid-19 Is it Affecting You and How?

[farmerjan]

Like is not a strong enough way to "comment" on your post. I agree that we had better get back to work, and that this has to stop. Yes I have lost someone dear to me to virus. But we can't just stay shut down.
And there is a perfect example of what the "relief" packages are doing.... your own DD2 is making more than when she was working. Who in the he// is footing all this but the ones of us that are still working, and all the borrowed money from China.... at the rate we are going, we may as well just turn the country over to them because it won't be long and they will own us anyway. It is sickening.

Sad as it is, but maybe we needed this "pandemic" to thin the population..... except it is not taking the useless non-working on the gov't dole ones...... so the ones that are succumbing to it are the ones that actually contribute to society, or the ones retired that did their part for 30-40-50 years or more.

I don't know where we go from here, but it is getting to me to see what we are becoming.

There are 12000 people in my county. 180 cases total that is from when it began. 140 of the cases have been in nursing homes. So that leaves only 40 people out and about who have had it. To me not very scary the next county over has 10 cases. Stores are well stocked just a limit mask are optional. Churches are opening up with spaced out seating. I still ask everyone I see and I have a few friends who have started to now also, if they know of anyone directly who has had it. I have asked tons of people and only one has said yes they know 3 people. And they couldn't confirm if those had been tested or if they just thought they had it.

So I'll ask all of you do u personally know of anyone who has it and has been tested?

And that is not my cousins wife's brothers bosses cowerkers dog has it. But actual my wife had it or son or best friend.

Our governor has cut the school budget and is talking of 2 days of school next year a week with the other days learning from home. I told my wife 2 yrs ago before my son started kindergarten that our kids would probably graduate from online school.

This whole thing is a joke.
It's all political.
The worst for me is what people are doing and asking doesn't make sense.
I'm embarrassed to say we all got douped. And the government is trying to gain from it now or cover their butts from over reacting.

I don't need people to try and explain what the gov was doing. I understand it. There just isn't any proof in my area that it is even real.

My church is 450 people I asked the pastor if anyone from church had it or if he knew of anyone ( he knows a lot of people and is part of many boards ) he said he knew of no one that had it.

My son in law is a PA and he has run tests on several people who have tested positive, this is in Spokane, so not a rural area. That being said, I also believe that we have been duped and I know that the numbers don't add up! Colorado, just lowered their Covid death count, because the hospitals were counting people who died with Covid from a different cause...ie...heart attack, stroke as having died from Covid! The numbers are extremely inflated and corrections need to be made to the total count!

I absolutely agree @Ridgetop.

Sooooo, it's okay for the "useless non-working on the gov't dole ones" to be thinned out? The "useless" ones are still somebody's mother, father, sister, brother. In fact, my disabled brother is one of those on the dole. Maybe he should just forget about being a father, grandfather and husband who gives as much of himself as he possibly can to his family and neighbors. SMH.... this is so screwed up.

What the hell is wrong with having compassion and caring about those "useless" folks.

I am not refering to someone who is disabled and still trying to be a contributing member of society. I am talking about the ones who think they are owed a living, that expect handouts, who are too lazy to work or do something that is positive and contributing in some sort of a positive way. And if they are drug dealers, and the dregs of the human race, then yes, I think it is okay for them to be thinned out. If you have ever had anyone murdered by some useless piece of scum, or had them injured or hurt in ways that there is no way to fix it, REGARDLESS if they are someone's brother, father, uncle or whatever... then yes, they deserve to be dead. I have compassion and do alot for people that are less fortunate than I am. I have stopped thinking that I can help everyone, or that some deserve to be helped. Let God do the deciding on that. But I am tired of the feel sorry for all these ones that won't do anything to help themselves after countless chances or "helping hands up"....

What makes you think I haven't?

In that case they deserve the punishment set by society. And, I do believe in the death penalty. But, to wish someone dead because they are considered useless - is one of the most horrible things I've ever heard.

You feel it's okay to say what you feel - so do I.

I don't know where you live, but here in Los Angeles area we have homeless people all over living on the streets. there are places for them to go but those places require drug and alcohol tests to stay there. Most of these people are addicts who prefer to remain living on the street so they can collect welfare and do their drugs, etc.

Haven't you heard about San Francisco's "help" for the homeless? In order to get them to move into SF government homeless housing, they are offering to supply them with booze and drugs. They already hand out clean needles without question to addicts.

I don't think Farmerjan is saying that she wants anyone to die. She is saying - like most of us - that she doesn't want to pay her hard earned money out for the stupid actions our politicians are taking without any authorization by us. Our Governor Newsom is being sued by a group because he wanted to give several thousand dollars to every illegal alien in the state. Nothing for citizens but illegals would get all free health care and several thousand dollars! This was supposedly to help them over the Covid virus. Let them go home instead. They are allowed to vote here because we cannot check identities of voters. This keeps the liberals in power.

There are recall petitions out to recall our governor and also L.A. mayor Garcetti but guess what? Due to Covid and the government issued quarantine and social distancing no one can get a copy to sign! They cant get authorization to send it out by email because to do that they have to have the government allow it!

It is not matter of wishing anyone to die, it is a matter of people having to survive. The government wants to put us all on subsidies because that way they can control us. Working people want to work, store and business owners want to run their businesses and pay their employees.

Thank you @Ridgetop for putting into words some of what I am feeling. Sometimes I am not very tactful. I am tired of feeling like I am supposed to take care of everyone else, but when I want to take care of myself and "my own" it is not allowed or not "fair", or uncaring or whatever....

Adversity and stress can certainly bring out the worst in folks. And with that - I'm outta here. You folks can keep on spewing hate - I'll take a pass!

I really hate to see this happen. Written word on the internet has caused so many disconnects.
