Have to say that you missed the truely important point of "Planet of Humans" which is that without population growth reduction there will be no time to worry about feeding and socializing everyone, let alone lighting their bulbs.
i honestly don't care who win/lose. it's out off our control (even though we have the right to vote). i tend to focus on more of what i can reallllly control, which is my health, and my business.

2009. 11 years ago. What is the shelf life of an N95 mask? Anyway Trump has been in office for 3 years and 113 days. From your article: "ProPublica reported on April 3 that congressional budget battles in the early years of the Obama administration contributed to stockpile shortages. But the article notes available funds were used not to replenish masks: "With limited resources, officials in charge of the stockpile tend to focus on buying lifesaving drugs from small biotechnology firms that would, in the absence of a government buyer, have no other market for their products, experts said. Masks and other protective equipment are in normal times widely available and thus may not have been prioritized for purchase, they said." And the reference: https://www.propublica.org/article/us-emergency-medical-stockpile-funding-unprepared-coronavirus
Looked it up, 5 year shelf life. https://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/869238O/3m-health-care-particulate-respirator-and-surgical-masks-storage-conditions-and-shelf-life-faq.pdf
What is good for the goose?
The Obama administration seriously depleted the supply of N95 masks during the H1N1 epidemic in 2009, and did not replenish them in spite of being asked to do so.

Is this not politicizing the Virus response? Moscow Mitch blames the Obama Administration. Seems to forget that they gave them " The Playbook for Response to High - Consequence Emerging Infectious Disease Threats and Biological Incidents." It warned of potential problems like shortages in personal protective equipment that have plagued the nations response.The Trump administration negated to implement it's recommendations. And an office called the Pandemic Preparedness Office.... which they abolished. And a global monitoring system called PREDICT.. that they cut by 75%.

Interesting that 3+ months in to this virus and now everyone other than Trump is required to wear a mask in the White House. Had they required masks through out the country from the beginning, we could be getting over this. Now masks have become a political object. A defiance. A freedom to not wear one ( and spread the virus). Taiwan has 24 million people, 440 cases and 7 deaths. That number has not changed in weeks. They wear masks and have single payer healthcare. If you compared that to the USA 330 million population, we would have 6050 cases and 96 deaths. Instead we have 1347936 cases and 80684 deaths. And we will have many more. The Castle Rock restaurant was an organized attempt by Republicans to get many restaurants to open on Mother's Day. One did. They had signs at the entry saying no mask zone. I feel sorry for business's during this virus pandemic. But, if they defy this health law, what other health laws do they defy. One person in that restaurant could have spread the virus to all. The Government support of small business has been poor. The Trump/Republican response to this virus has been poor. Those that support this administration enable this carnage.
Good points, avn013, and well said. Also, an awesome video clip with Trevor Noah interviewing Thomas Piketty -- doesn't get much better than that.
It's really a shame that the once-great United States of America, the past envy of the world, is today earning the scorn and pity among both her enemies and friends abroad thanks to the creeping economic fascism in vogue with Republicans since Reagan. Their prevailing aspirations -- one-party rule, institutionalized corruption, and the nation's mass of wealth monopolized by the greedy and the ruthless -- have culminated, as one would expect, with a dangerously dysfunctional Party leader, an authoritarian buffoon who gives voice to the incestuous progeny of fascism, promoting undemocratic policies and cultivating truly profane attitudes among his tragically misled constituents.
The Republican Party's lust for power has nearly destroyed what the Founders struggled so hard to achieve-- that delicate economic balance between free enterprise and the commons, and politically, between states' rights and a strong central government under a system where all power resides with the People, not with bought-off politicians and their puppetmasters on Wall Street.
America has sold her soul for trinkets and baubles and false promises. And now the chickens are coming home to roost as we sink deeper and deeper into possibly the worst depression the world has ever seen. Why is it not surprising that our deceitful, clownish dictator wannabe is using this crisis to consolidate his power?
European countries (northern or southern) occasionally (like the stopped clock) say and do correct things. Unfortunately, USA is all alone. (Loneliness is by definition the price (or part thereof) a leading nations has to pay, in order to be recognized as a leader). I may be wrong (as is often the case), but my impression is that what made USA a country, which others have been trying to imitate (not always successfully), is a “healthy balance” between capitalism and democracy. (Apparently the desire of “money” is more common among different cultures than believing in the same God(s). Also the inherent desire of equality and justice seems to permeate all kinds of different cultures despite the variance in governments worldwide). However, this balance has been seriously disturbed in the last ~30 years. As a people we have voted in decision-takers who are mainly for capitalism and only nominally for democracy. This is so obvious that even a person from the other side of the Atlantic can see it clearly (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtahuPcsNVM). Can’t we? Maybe not. The ancient proverb “know thyself” is as difficult (and perhaps more) as simple it sounds.
I wonder what's going on with the great leader at the moment...

No idea. It has varied over the years.
Legend, Yeah, we checked out the Breckenridge Ski Resort and the casinos in Idaho Springs shortly before they were closed. Unbelievable crowds! Well, if they're asking people to sequester themselves, they had better keep the alcohol and pot shops open ...or there'll be revolución! };--))
Doorknobs: Haha, you're so easy...
(Btw, "we" spell it "Shuckin' and jivin'.") But haven't you been listening to Trump's fake-news briefings? S&J is what he does in spades, and then, of course, he projects his own lies onto others, as you have done in this thread repeatedly and deliberately.
Simply pointing out the fact that Trump and his allies are playing crass politics with people's lives is not playing politics in return; it's just the news, read it and weep. Similarly, pointing out your hypocrisy in the two conflicting statements that I highlighted above is just an observation of your own subconscious albeit obvious projection.
Certainly, the more densely populated urban centers are going to have higher numbers; however, you put that objective fact into a politically-charged "blue-state" context in response to your perceived understanding of what Legend was getting at. (Really, you should study the references provided for a fuller understanding.)
IOW, you were trying to counter Legend's legitimate points - backed by solid references -- by reversing the narrative with pretzel logic. Please point out where "Mr Legend was cheering because the deaths were occurring in "Red States."
As far as his statement, "I really wish they would check the political affiliation of patients.", I think most readers would take that as rhetorical to point out still another Republican-inspired, gross injustice: Foolhardy wingers who are purposefully flaunting safety protocols will inevitably flood already over-burdened hospitals in the near future, possibly taking away beds and ventilators from more conscientious patients who were actually trying to be mindful of the clear danger by honoring social distancing and wearing masks, and yet, who still somehow contracted COVID despite their best efforts. That's a helluva good point, is it not?
Colorado started it cases with skiers from Italy going to an event at Vail. The Event had a large crowd and it spread. Gov. Polis shutdown all of the ski resorts more than a month early. Of course they had some of the best snow in years after closing. Since then Denver has been hit. The Mayor of Denver did a shutdown that included liquor stores and Pot shops. There was an instantaneous rush on the shops and the Mayor had to change his shutdown to make liquor stores and pot shops essential services. Thus we had 1 hour of prohibition.
Castle Rock does not make the news very often. I was shocked when this small poorly located cafe made nationwide news. Cannot seem to get more info on how it was organized. Guarantee that it was organized. One person in the video can be seen wearing a mask. Maybe they should do like in the 50's and have virus (pox) parties so that they can become immune. While looking for a link on Pox Parties I found that it has all ready been done. You cannot fix stupid.

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks."
Once Doorknobs ad hominem attacks and parsed denials are ignored, the charge of blind hypocrisy stands, regardless of how she tries to restate her original premise. That's why it's called "blind."
This is what we call "Schukin and Jivin". I haven't changed one word from my original statement, and you know it....shows you lack the character to admit when you're wrong.......
Legend: It's a small world. I was staying with some friends a few miles outside of Golden this winter for about four months. Jefferson County got nailed pretty bad.
This is the State Senator that was at the cafe that illegally opened. Interesting that he has all ready had the virus. Still waiting for why only 1 person in the entire place was wearing a mask. Why a normally empty cafe had a 2 hour wait line. And reason that Smallwood (I will refrain from jokes) was at the cafe.

You are reading your lies into our posts. Neither of us have cheered deaths from this virus. But the blame for so many deaths is on the POTUS, the Republican Party and its supporters. We are the worse country at combating this virus and it is only going to get worse. And that is very sad that people like Doorknobs continues to support this carnage.
