Oh, lovely. They've sent me a mo-ron.
Ladies and gentlemen, we got the homeless. You can begin to be more alarmed.

Ladies and gentlemen, we got the homeless. You can begin to be more alarmed.
every one in Cali saw this one coming a mile away, and I dont think the political will exists to stop it.
Arch Dornan
Oh, lovely. They've sent me a mo-ron.
It's going to be a long while with the infection.
At least it's not a zombie virus then they'll literally eat the rich and anyone else not infected.
you have to remember that California's fincial situation is terminally fucked now. In 2 years the mass retirement of boomers hits and the state realizes that we cant possibly pay for their retirement on top of all our other stuff and social programs. If the homless people of the state die in droves from a plague that saves the state billions of dollars and its 'techically' not their fault.
If your looking face down a fincial cliff are you going to spend money and resources saving people who are already a massive fincial burden or are you going to 'make hard but nessary choices' and let them die in mass saving you billions?
Like I said the political will to save them simply is not there.
Arch Dornan
Oh, lovely. They've sent me a mo-ron.
I know it's been fucked the minute they went down that shit path we all know.

And odds are they won’t really care deep down, the homeless and tons of illegal migrants were just people they were using to “look/feel good”
A last attempt by your Democrat party maybe to try and put all the blame on the red states for not giving enough aid

The US is pretty far from that. Well that and woth the national guard being mobilized, 29,000 total, doing that wont end well

Also, I think they’ll shoot the guys who try to raid their homes and businesses
Less that, NYC and LA ya know. But the states are doing this pretty well oddly enough.

The social distancing is annoying but the building blocks of civilization are all still working fine. People have access to food and shelter and stuff.
Might be getting stressed out but I think we are a far ways off from any societal breakdowns or anything.

How is food still being made? I mean Corona can affect animals
Though its good we wash our fruits and vegetables

Corona is worst in the cities. Food is made in the country.

Yeah, but why aren’t the countryfolk paranoid AF

Them being more careful, and being spread out, is exactly why there aren't food shortages.

That’s good, how about the factories processing said food?
Shipmaster Sane
You have been weighed
US food processing was already very focused on preventing disease, I havent heard of any contamination coming from that sector.

Wow, capitalism already came up with a solution for that
Now, best not fuck it over
It's so far been happening in parts of the country a good distance from where I live.
Part of the problem, going by what I pick up from local social media, is the government's ban on the sale or transport of anything alcoholic during the period of the "lockdown".
Some people really miss their booze.

Bad descision. Booze is man's best friend if they don't have a dog.
