So this pandemic is probably going to put the US health insurance companies into bankruptcy eventually right? I can't wait to see our tax money go to bailout these companies as if they don't take enough of our money already.

itll be fun to see the reasons they use to justify bailing out failed insurance companies rather than just nationalize healthcare. because the free market is so important

They are going to force hospitals to close during this to take their assets because the hospitals aren’t bringing in enough revenue to stay in profit

Cuomos presser on at the moment has been excelllent, again. Guy really knows how to talk to his state during these times. Concise info, also being summed up with a PowerPoint next to him.

In the era of Trumps godawful back patting ceremonies, thank god we have someone doing a good job and calling people out as needed. I don’t even live in NY and I feel like I benefit from this.

Bernie has been actively working to pass bills to get money to Americans and raised over $2 million for 5 different coronavirus-based charities in the past two days.

Biden hasn't been seen in days.

My wife came home with symptoms: Aches, slight shortness of breath, congestion. No fever, though.
But I can count on one hand every time my wife's been sick in the 14 years I've known her, so if this is covid it's going to get its rear end kicked.

I'm very rarely taking sick days when I'm at work (or at least taking sick days for sick reasons) so I hope I'm in the same boat of having a strong badass immune system to diminish the symptoms

Kenny Rogers died. A bad day for country.


Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel
Needs no conversation
We ride it together, ah-ha
Making love with each other, ah-ha

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ha
From one lover to another, ah-ha
