quote [ After a volatile day of trading on Wall Street Thursday precipitated by ongoing fears of the economic effects of the global coronavirus outbreak, CNBC analyst Rick Santelli suggested it would be better to infect the world population with the disease all at once to help stock prices. ]
Sure why not - 32 million deaths worldwide at the current mortality rate is a small price to pay for for a handful of billionaires stock portfolios.

Heh - I think everyone still follows the old capitalism and cows trope.
I am noticing right, is now tons of, I don't know "right-flight" or "white-flight" or whatever it may be called. A lot of people I know and grew up with are leaving the U.S. for Mexico, the Caribbean Islands, and other places to live.
The strange thing about it - they are all die-hard tea-party/trumpheads. Besides the canned "taxes/blah-blah" reasons they spew forth, the one thread that runs through them all for leaving is that no one can afford the health care costs in the US. Crazy - they get all their fucking dream people in power, fuck everything up, and then leave the country. Maybe they will all start a commune in the middle of Guyana or something.
