I don't expect any blast's from Biden either. China will be able to finish the complete assimilation of Hong Kong and get a good start on taking back Taiwan with a toothless tiger in the whitehouse.

You mention "Once Covid ends" just curious what 'ends' means to you and when you think that will be.


Late summer (2021). Of course COVID-19 will not go away, but it will be controlled to a reasonable extent to start returning to normal.

I would expect 100K deaths a year from Covid in the US for several years. That should be manageable and allow a normal life.

We can wait for AZ to weigh in. I took it as a sarcastic slap at all those who said "Trump has blood on his hands." That he believes NEITHER has blood on their hands. I do not blame Biden for any of the deaths that will occur under his watch. Nor did I blame Trump. To me, blame implies I believe there was some intentional wrongdoing. As an example, Cuomo's decision to seed the nursing homes with COVID infected individuals ABSOLUTELY resulted in more deaths, but I actually don't 'blame' him for them. He did not WANT those extra deaths, and was working with the limited information he had, and his limited ability to think ahead as to what the results of his orders would be.


Now we see why you got into medical school. Because you are smart! Although no offense but it should be easy to see. But maybe not to easy for those suffering TDS who have spent the last 4.5 years saying

Let's see...

He reversed the role of Democrat AND Republican administrations. SINCE WW2. We know he ditched a 69 page pandemic playbook.

Making mistakes using a researched plan is one thing. Throwing out plans is another.

I figured as much! I am here to interpret complex copy for those that can’t on their own!

Here’s some advice for you... wear a mask because it makes other people feel good. There is no circumstance I won’t wear one if asked, no matter how silly the reason.

Interesting that outside of storming the US Capitol, they are still capturing Nazis elsewhere.

A 95-year-old woman has been charged as an accessory to the murder of 10,000 people because she worked as a secretary at a Nazi concentration camp, German prosecutors announced on Friday.

The woman has not been named under German privacy laws but has been partially identified by local media as Irmgard F, a German pensioner living in a retirement home in Pinneberg, north of Hamburg.

From June 1943 and April 1945 she worked as a secretary and typist for the commandant of Stutthof concentration camp, in present day Poland.

She is charged with “assisting those responsible for the systematic killing of Jewish prisoners, Polish partisans and Soviet prisoners of war at the camp”.

So if you make 10 million dollars when you're 16 you shouldn't have to pay taxes.

Can't vote. NO taxation without representation.

Also, I am pretty sure foreign nationals (like NBA stars) have to pay US taxes, right?

I wear it if asked but minimize when I need to be asked. Every dealing gig I take is on condition of no masks.

Which reminds me, is a body temp of 94F with one of those "gun" type infared readers normal for someone outside for an hour or more? They took it within minutes after I entered I had been outside so I figure the surface temp of my skin was low due to that. 94 would be pretty bad hypothermia, no?

A true core body temperature of 94 is close to death. Without special techniques as used in intentional comas, etc.. Supposefly they are not taking your skin temperature, by the way. I have less than zero trust in their accuracy.
