@Cyber Liberty

I currently have a vacation planned for the area in two weeks.  Not gambling, but I was flying into LAS and then trekking out from there into Utah and AZ.  But with everything closed in LV, I am guessing that this is no longer an option.  What is the word on the street?  Is it still worth chancing, or should I go to Hawaii instead?

Vegas is probably down for the full 30 days, and we're only 2 days into it.  Hawaii's nice, but I fear nowhere's going to be any fun for a month.

Far better than Trump arguing with that NBC reporter.  What the H was that about?

Thanks for your response @Applewood .  I agree.  On the other hand I have recently considered that President Trump could possibly be human with feelings, and watching his legacy of a strong 3-year economy swirl down the drain in 2 weeks could be frustrating and infuriating.  He is the President and shouldn't act in malice, but we all fall short in the eyes of the Lord.  Thankfully, the President was mostly back on message today, praising others for their diligence, and co-operation, and unity.

Here are several of my takes on the efficacy of owning the liberal press on reducing the spread of the virus.

I have a feeling all this will be over in about a week - two, tops - and the economy/jobs will come screaming back with a friggen vengeance. And your son will be back sitting in commuter traffic in no time. :patriot:

With all the talk about Italy and its aged population, we might learn something by focusing on Florida and its aged population.  Florida also has warmer temperatures and higher moisture content in the atmosphere, so that could be the difference.  Also could explain Hong Kong and Singapore low numbers.

The idea, as poorly thought out as it is, is to throw money all around in hopes that we'll spend money we otherwise would not, and that would have zero effect on the sectors that are hurting (especially if I'm not even allowed to do the things that would help).


@Cyber Liberty

Of course they hope it's going to be spent!  But not only to try to keep the economy afloat.

The vast majority of Americans live hand to mouth.

Dress it up all you want but the cold hard truth is that without that money, we'd all be living in a dangerous, savage world.

People will not only steal to feed their kids...today, they'll kill you just for your toilet paper.

Due to memory issues and usually shopping hungry, I have food all over my place.
Not prepping at all, just stupid. Have food in my bathroom closet. Freezer is overloaded.
Plenty of TP, and dozens of pounds of coffee. Food under my sink. Fridge is overfilled (stuff actually falls out).
Bedroom closet, living room cabinets, you will find rice, soup, flour, and stuff I have forgotten about months ago.
Every spare spot has food in it. Not from covid-19. It is just something I do, normally and naturally all the time.
Nobody is more surprised than me that my obsessive shopping actually paid off. Totally unexpected.
I could never leave my home for months eating and drinking just fine. And that would be normal for me.
All I'm thinking is that I can finally burn up some of my overstock.

I’ve thought about that.  We didn’t live through the Depression or a World War, but a lot of us were raised by parents who did.  And though many were spoiled, many of us were raised by parents who taught us to value what we had, to work hard, and to spend our money wisely.

A lot of kids have been given everything, and taught to expect others to take care of them.

If this causes the economy to crash (God forbid), will the younger generations have the resilience to recover?  Hard to say....

I’ve thought of that, and wondered how many of the elderly Florida residents may have been infected by those reckless college students exchanging bodily fluids on the beaches during their spring break.

I think we’ll find out if there’s an uptick in cases in the coming weeks.

They should have closed those beaches immediately, IMO....

Younger adults are large percentage of coronavirus hospitalizations in United States, according to new CDC data
White House officials warn millennials they are not immune
By  Ariana Eunjung Cha
March 19, 2020 at 8:55 AM EDT

The deadly coronavirus has been met with a bit of a shrug among some in the under-50 set in the United States. Even as public health officials repeatedly urged social distancing, the young and hip spilled out of bars on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. They gleefully hopped on flights, tweeting about the rock-bottom airfares. And they gathered in packs on beaches.

Their attitudes were based in part on early data from China, which suggested covid-19 might seriously sicken or kill the elderly — but spare the young.

Stark new data from the United States and Europe suggests otherwise.

Read more at:  https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2020/03/19/younger-adults-are-large-percentage-coronavirus-hospitalizations-united-states-according-new-cdc-data/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most

This article is a free read, I noted, some publications are making their coronavirus info free, it provides a public service.

@TomSea I hope these kids don't die, and the ones who live don't have life-long perment damage to their lungs because they wanted one more day of spring break.  It's hard to blame them for under-estimating the damage.  I've been reassuring my own children that they were very safe from this virus, but that is the message I've been getting from the people who say our COVID-19 response is exaggerated.
