    Can't believe I'm saying this but I don't really care right now to be honest. There's more important issues with this pandemic.
    Don't ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for next products.

    Virtually everything Ryan. We're almost certainly going to have the Great Depression 2.0. People are losing their livelihoods. The fact that a contagious virus is spreading like wildfire, jeopardizing scores of elderly and immunocompromised people. The fact that society is literally paralyzed right now.

    The fact that we're ruled by a bunch of thieves, crooks, and grifters who knew about this in January and offloaded their stock before this. The fact that said crooks, whose livelihoods are 100 percent safe by the way, are destroying working Americans' livelihoods and will offer nothing to ameliorate their economic problems.

    The fact that the fat orange clown in the oval office could have stopped us from getting to this point had he taken this seriously from the beginning (I regret ever supporting or voting for that idiot. I've never been more disgusted with politics and am almost certainly sitting out this election)

    Sorry, but I think the above social problems are just a tad more important than 20-some token executions.

    Its not funny Bobsicles. My 21 year old daughter has asthma and it flares up when she gets ill. Even normally in September she has to take inhalers as a precaution because if she catches a cold or the flu it goes straight to her lungs and can linger for months. Every time I go out for groceries I worry that I may be bringing the virus home.

    Aaron reading about the grifting of those millionaires who sold stock made me physically ill.

    There are some really evil people in this world. Worse then some of the murderers on DR.

    As much as I believe Trump should fall on his sword at the convention and allow another nominee to be named, I don't think that there was quite a lot he could have done, largely because no one (not even Russia) thought to close off Italy soon enough. That the disease has not spread as rapidly in Japan is largely because the germophobic habits long predate this pandemic. We have a decentralized power structure here and a lot of authority and responsibility is in the hands of state and local officials.

    Consequences of the failures of our government are inherently political. This pandemic, and its adverse effects on society, will be at the forefront of the political stage for the foreseeable future.

    I worry about this virus more so for my dad. HeÂ’s 60 and has coughing problems. I work as a lot associate at Home Depot so I could easily contract it. IÂ’m only 22 so it wouldnÂ’t effect me. On the other hand itÂ’ll greatly damage him.

    You and I live in the same state but given that Home Depot is an essential store it remains open. Your in Cumberland county correct?
