https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/03/world/asia/coronavirus-spread-where-why.html This article where the NYT spends like a thousand words going "scientists have no idea why the Roni spreads or doesn't. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯" isn't really giving me the reassuring feelings this morning.

U.S. Beef Output Is Down Way More Than Shutdowns Suggest quote:American beef output is down a lot more than plant closures would have you believe -- a sign that slowdowns at facilities will continue to keep meat supplies tight even when some production lines reopen. And to think even spammers were talking themselves into the idea that there wouldn't be meat shortages lmao

They saw what it would take to deal with the virus; just a little bit of a social safety net and the government taking a bit of control of some sectors of the economy for a little while. And they immediately said no. Better that people die.

Mr Hootington posted:Trump threatened to default on the debt to china because of the virus too china has all the manufacturing power that the US has been frantically trying to get rid of since the end of WWII, the US needs them way more than the reverse. US economy is going to disembowel itself in the next year anyway and China is probably already figuring out wtf to do about that.

Yeah, I'm still employed and as long as my wife and I don't get laid off at the same time we'd be able to pay the mortgage indefinitely as long as we paired to the bone basically everywhere else (because we bought well below what the bank would have given us) which means we are in a better spot than 90% of the country and we've still closed our spending to basically everything but food and basic household stuff. The economy is hosed if we try the trickle down 'cut payroll' taxes poo poo. The only thing that is gonna get me to spend money is confidence that I'll have income going forward.

I know someone who lives in one of the hardest hit counties in Iowa who insists on taking their 90 some year old dad on a road trip to one of the counties that is open so he can get out of the house  I seriously have to stop myself from saying "just hold a pillow over his face it'll be quicker". Although this person is actually good hearted in so many other ways they just don't understand the danger so I couldn't bring myself to say it

Same. I'm just sitting in the house and buying necessities. The only unnecessary expenses I have are weed and booze and they help with the whole "terror" thing.
