How to decide when to open up the economy?

When we get over the hump of less people dying every day in the USA instead of more people dying every day

I don't think so. If the peak is 2,000 a day, we wont start opening up at 1,900. Not sure what the number is, but that's why I asked. I think 200 a day, similar to flu deaths in peak season, likely is the number.

I don't think we should open once trend goes down but that's when the real discussion starts

The quality of the daily WH briefings
is amazing. The amount of info they
have, the questions they answer,
day after day. I'm in awe of the job
they're doing on every level.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

I wouldn’t know. Would never waste my time watching it live. I watch the recap afterwards where they are able to filter out all the lies and distortions.

The very next day, I had no mail. From ~4 trays down to 1.5. But you know what was in the mail that I did have? Flier for Mypillow.

I'm not sayin', but... yes tf I am.

IRS to begin issuing $1,200 coronavirus payments April 9, but some Americans won’t receive checks until September, agency plan says


Will be veeeeerry interesting to see what happens to Donny’s approval rating when his measly $1200 checks don’t arrive in some people’s pockets till September.

Millions of people needed those checks TODAY to cover the mortgage/rent/etc.

Now I understand why you are always so confused about what is going on. You let the MSM filter your news.
