...the whole country is in a perpetual state of “victim mentality”. I guess this is what you wanted all along.
I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY NOW!!!

should have had a stockpile of ventilators and N95 masks for everyone. It is the Federal Government's job to take care of us from cradle to grave...I need my check!

It’s a “scary world” out there, and it’s very risky to even have a job where you have to go to work. We’ve got all this “alien technology” but we’re still living like slaves instead of kings.....what’s up with that?

How about not wait until mid-March to start buying them?

when we know the pandemic is already here since January? Or not complain that states should fend for themselves while competing against them for supplies driving the price up. These are basic things I'd want my federal government to do and they failed and continue to fail.
"A review of federal purchasing contracts by The Associated Press shows federal agencies largely waited until mid-March to begin placing bulk orders of N95 respirator masks, mechanical ventilators and other equipment needed by front-line health care workers."

This is the most foreseeable natural disaster we've ever faced. We saw it spreading and we did nothing. It came to America, and we did nothing.
Finally, the Imperial College of London released it's study that concluded that with mitigation in the U.S., there would be 2 million deaths.
2 days later Trump and every personality on Fox News changed their messaging from "Liberals are using this non-threat (it's like the cold-Limbaugh) as a weapon to make Trump look bad"....to, this is a very serious danger and you should do what is necessary to prevent getting it."

Victim of what? Life? A pandemic?

All normal stuff. Imagine us fighting a world war while this is going on.
Interesting thing so few people know.....
Disease has traditionally killed more people in wars than other soldiers. Just amassing troops and putting that many people together, created disease outbreaks that often claimed more lives than the enemy inflicted on the battlefield. This was true right through the Civil War.
We've been spoiled or lucky however you want to look at it. We will get back to work slowly. I am more worried about our recovery in the fall than the shut down. We've done some crazy things to deal with this that will haunt us if we pick up where we left off by 1st quarter next year.
We are lucky to be able to shut down like we have. Even if for a month or two it will help.
On the bright side, think of how much colder this summer will be thanks to no more carbon emissions. Major victory for the global warming freaks. Even China cut their emissions by 90%.

Jesus, how hard is it to understand a virus that came out of China that no human has resistance to?
It's not something that anybody wanted. This virus doesn't care what your politics are, it's mindless death, that is all. Let's see how if you feel like a "victim" if you lose a friend or member of your family. This virus doesn't care what you think, where you live, or how much money you have. It kills everything it can before it moves on.
