Expendable

 Two acquaintances I know died of Covid today.  Four people I know tested positive for Covid this week and are trying to cope.  All we hear on the news and from government is we have to keep the economy going.  This is b*llsh*t.  We should not simply be expendables for the economic gain of others.  Governors who try to take the lead and help have kidnap plots against them.  But, no.... stupid people won’t wear masks. 

I do not know this current world anymore. It is nothing like what I thought the world was.

Our numbers aren't good, but yours are going through the roof. Over 90000 new US cases yesterday.

Oh, but Professor, didn't you HEAR? We're "rounding the turn". HuzzaH! (Mordant sarcasm...)

To interpret "freedom" to mean "I will do as I please" is just so wrong.

It is an odd and cruel reality when economic measurements are more valuable than human life. It is pathetic when people refuse to practice standards of safety. There has been an extraordinary dumbing down in the last quarter century. Civilization is taking a hit from western commercial culture.

We will choke to death on own selfishness. FREE-DUMB. Vote blue. The future of our nation depends on it.
