    Hmm. Noticing that this is far more virulent than was though back in February.

    The government has gone far enough. Where I work, supervisors are writing up people who sit less than six feet apart at lunch. At the moment a few planes are still flying but passenger traffic is down by 90%. Apparently airlines are carrying freight cargo for the time being to make up the difference. Canada is still getting planes all day from China and they are not doing anything special to screen incoming passengers. City buses and subways are probably what is driving the disease in NYC and in Indianapolis crowded city buses probably have helped to make Indianapolis a hot spot on the pandemic map. We are sicker than Ohio here. As for trains, it is long past time to do away with Amtrack, so yes, shut it down forever. As for Greyhound, Trailways, and other bus lines, they are not as popular as they were during World War II, which was their peak. It is not a good idea to travel if it is not necessary, but the government should leave things alone for the moment.

    Sunday, the USA had roughly 144,00 cases. If that doubles in 5 days and then doubles again in 5 days, then we should probably declare martial law. If you think that we are going to escape a recession, I think that you are wrong. The public has panicked here. The stock market looks as if Obama is in charge again. The money is becoming so worthless that it might be used for toilet paper still in short supply. Right now the USA has 165,000 cases. Los Angeles is using the police to break up parties--I can't post the video because the language is too foul.

    We did it to ourselves with our greed for cheap labor and big profits. We sold out our labor and quality for communist lies.
