    @Noirette

    I was saying the equivalent at the beginning of 2020.

    “…. defanging would have required measures totalitarian in nature….”

    “So, the principle of “Never Let a Good Crisis Go to Waste” kicked in.”

    Tomorrow will not be the same as yesterday.

    This is the first world wide effort, since WWII, that all gov. have organized, all resources, to achieve one objective.
    Extra activities have been suspended, tourism, etc. and given financial support to survive until needed.

    In addition to what Dr. D said,
    I’ve always hear the seniors commenting on the younger generation of not being as “good, capable, devoted, tough”, etc as when “we” were young.
    Our societies has multiple complex systems of rules, regulations, standard practice and procedures to follow so that everything will keep functioning.
    However, I am seeing, more and more, that the gears are gumming up and things are not functioning as they were designed to function.
    What I’m seeing, that our systems are breaking down, has nothing to do with “ism”.
    Its because the leaders, supervisors, foreman, enablers, are not doing their jobs.
    Too many of them are not shouldering their responsibilites, don’t want to be liable, and work smart not hard, by delegating all their work to someone else.

    Hunter Biden subpoena seeks info on Burisma, other entities
    By MICHAEL BALSAMO and ERIC TUCKER
    During the election, of course, Hunter was completely off limits – with a virtual press blackout on the subject, and President Trump receiving a sharp rebuke from debate moderator Chris Wallace for bringing it up.

    A subpoena seeking documents from Hunter Biden asked for information related to more than two dozen entities, including Ukraine gas company Burisma, according to a person familiar with a Justice Department tax investigation of President-elect Joe Biden’s son.

    The breadth of the subpoena, issued Tuesday, underscores the wide-angle lens prosecutors are taking as they examine the younger Biden’s finances and international business ventures.

    Hunter Biden’s ties to Burisma in particular have long dogged the policy work and political aspirations of his father, Joe Biden, now the president-elect of the United States. It’s unclear whether Hunter Biden’s work at the Ukrainian company is a central part of the federal investigation or whether prosecutors are simply seeking information about all his sources of income in recent years.

    We’re sure Kamala Harris is genuinely concerned over the outcome of this investigation and hopes it doesn’t result in Joe Biden’s unceremonious exit from the teleprompter scene.

    The 277 Policies for Which Biden Need Not Ask Permission
    As president, Joe Biden could take action on hundreds of policies without having to go through Congress. The Biden-Sanders unity task force provides a road map.

    BY MAX MORAN JULY 28, 2020
    FAST FACTS:
    We found 277 policies that can be enacted through executive branch powers in the Biden-Sanders unity task force document.
    48 of the policies, or 17 percent, are rollbacks of Trump-era policy changes.
    Immigration (78 policies), Climate Change (54 policies), and the Economy (54 policies) have the most potential executive actions.
    This story is part of the Prospect’s series on how the next president can make progress without new legislation. Read all of our Day One Agenda articles here.
    If Biden is inaugurated, then by his first hundred days, we should expect him to have made significant progress on many, if not all, of these proposals. Those which he does not adopt and pursue vigorously will speak to his nature as a president.
    In fact, 48 are simply calls to roll back Trump-era policies, or to reinstate Obama-era rules and committees that Trump ended or disbanded. Any remotely competent Democrat ought to be able to implement these immediately, no matter what their particular policy vision.

    ‘Bleak Milestone’: More Than 100,000 Nursing Home Residents and Staff Killed by Pandemic
    Forty percent of all Covid-19 deaths in the United States have occurred in long-term care facilities.
    by Kenny Stancil, staff writer

    “While early action to prevent the spread of coronavirus in long-term care facilities led to strict protocols related to testing, personal protective equipment, and visitor restrictions,” KFF pointed out that “several of these measures have been reversed in recent months, and some long-term care facilities continue to report shortages of PPE and staff.”
    According to physician and public health expert Michael Barnett, 7.7% of the nation’s nursing home residents, or one in 13, have now died as a result of Covid-19. “Things have never really gotten better,” he tweeted. “Testing is a struggle, PPE and staff are daily challenges.”

    I’ve got to repost my questions
    —–
    Will a vaccine reduces serious infections and/or death?

    1. Should everyone take the vaccine for covid19?
    2. Should a person take the covid19 test before getting the covid19 vaccine?
    3. Should a person take the vaccine after getting covid19?
    4. Should a person take the vaccine after getting covid19 after being admitted in the hospital?
    5. Should a person who is over 65 yrs old, who have other issues, (high blood pressure, diabetic, over weight, immune system compromised, etc.) take the vaccine?
    6. Should a person who is in a care home take the vaccine?

    If you answer yes to the above questions, you are wasting your money and endangering your health.
    ——
    Better than a vaccine?
    Recommendation for everyone over 65 who are afraid to die and are richer than me?
    1. Spend your savings to enjoy life
    2. Go south to get your vitamin D from the sunshine
    3. Eat a great non-fattening diet to get your Zinc
    4. Don’t use cheap care workers. Use a live-in nurse
    5. If you lost your partner, Don’t forget that when you are retired, soul mates are attracted by the color of gold not your sexy body
    6. Travel in your own plane with only your entourage.
    7. Continue to avoid the rif-raf
    8. Keep doing virtual meetings and avoid creating demonstrations by any opponents ( Four geoeconomic summits compressed in one week tell the story of where we stand in these supremely dystopian times… The (virtual) signing of RCEP in Vietnam was followed by the equally virtual BRICS meeting hosted by Moscow, the APEC meeting hosted by Malaysia, and the G20 this past weekend hosted by Saudi Arabia.)

    Google, ~80% of its revenue through ads.

    Facebook, over 98% of its revenue derives from advertising.

    That’s how capitalism works. Transferring the cost to you by hidden, shadowy mechanism.
