So a virus, and this administration just turns the lights off at the EPA and says "gently caress it, do whatever" because reasons. Man that's pretty cool. Laws are optional if you're a Republican.

My wife is showing "minor" symptoms, like the kind that could be any number of viruses including COVID-19. She hasn't really left the house in the last two weeks, however, due to my job I've been in and out of a dozen different facilities in three states, so IF she has it, she probably got it from me. It would be nice to know if either of us have it, and that I'm just asymptomatic, or any combination of things. I've been told the us is the greatest in the world at testing, tho?

Godholio posted:
Imagine if most presidential cycles, the republican presidential candidate had a long legislative history of supporting gun control, immigration, and environmental regulation, and said they would be proud to work with democrats on expanding welfare. Activist conservatives would raise objections, but the party line was "vote red, Fred," and when they lost, as they usually did, the party decided it was from not being left wing enough. This is hard to imagine, right? It's hard to imagine because the republican party actively seeks the support of their voters by championing their issues. The Democratic party base is not more activist than the republican party base. It's actually the opposite of that - the democratic party can and does assume that their voters will support basically anyone they put in front of them. Bloomberg ran D for a reason. He didn't win, but he did a lot better than he would in a R primary, despite being much closer to the republican party on policy.

Godholio posted:To be fair, I'm not sure NAVFAC could fix it properly anyway. Biden isn’t the left. He’s center right. That’s the problem. If we actually ran someone with progressive policies you wouldn’t hear progressives bitching about the struggle. However, actual progressive policy challenged entrenched capital, and that must be protected at all costs.

Bored As gently caress posted:City should seize it and just use it. Eminent domain still requires the government to pay for something, the hospital is in poo poo condition so if they seized it, Philly would have to pay for the hospital and repairs, and then be stuck with a hospital they dont want to run and manage when the crises is over. Oversimplification without considering the consequences.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:Trump is vocally and actively implementing pro-life policy, even though he is probably not in the least bit anti-abortion. Biden is by far the better of the viable presidential candidates for womens' reproductive health options regardless of opinions or past policy positions. The thing I think they objected to was the language involved, re: everyone is effectively anti-abortion because no one wants to get the procedure, which can, depending on phrasing, be at odds with activist talking points that aren't that widespread outside of-- well, activism. And Twitter. Basically piggybacks off the tired Dem trope of Rare And Legal, ie: 'abortions are always hugely traumatic and literally no one wants one ever it's so sad!!!' In reality, abortion is how the woman feels about it, which could range from yes traumatic to basically just neutral. 'Always traumatic' is a horseshit lie peddled by centrists that want to appeal to-- other right-leaning centrists, those rare few that still exist. I read the post as 'no one goes out on Saturday for an abortion because they happen to be pregnant and just kinda feel like it, people by nature would prefer not to have one because outpatient surgery sucks,' but on the off chance you were pulling a Rare and Legal didn't want to really stick up for that defense lol. Glad you decided to clarify. Anyway yeah long story short: Biden sucks, still sucks less than Trump, on this specific issue.

Abortions should be rare inasmuch as it is a public health goal to encourage less invasive forms of birth control. There is absolutely nothing morally wrong with abortions. If it’s your body, you can do what you want with it.

For generally valid reasons outside of this specific situation, eminent domain claims take a very long time to process. There are multiple legal reviews and check points. It's just not feasible to seize it and get anything productive done about people dying to coronavirus with the property if the owner intends to fight it. Time and resources that it would take to do that would be much better at reducing body count if they are redirected to setting up other properties as triage and non-critical care facilities.
