I thought you guys were essential? The gun shop I mean

Not sure about your dentist OS but a family member who is a dentist was ordered to close weeks ago with a reopen date of "maybe" may 1st. Non essential is what they were told.

Out in it now !

+1. Out in it everyday. I found carrying a 3' foot club helps with social distancing. Its 3 and not 6 because I expect everyone else to do their share .

I thought it was just me when I heard this giant suck noise but it turns out its just the economy going down the drain for the next decade

I never said we shouldnt have more equipment and be well prepared but even with enough to cover every single human in North America you will not save them all. People die. And whether it's Trump or someone else that stockpile will be pirated for some BS disaster in another country and not get replenished. Reminds me of the wheel tax in my county we got in 1975 to build a school. Then last year they asked for 60 million to build a new school. When asked where all that money was from the wheel tax 45 years ago they said "well that was a long time ago blah blah blah" and now here we are. Or it goes the other way and we have an excess of katrina fema trailers you can't give away. Point is you can tag whatever headline on it you want to get the money but we will be right back in this spot next pandemic and the money will be gone. Just like what Cuomo supposedly done when given a choice in 2015

The version I heard was ran under the guise that we need never to be caught like this again. So we should apparently keep 1 of everything on hand for each member of the population. With each passing day I get the feeling the government thinks it's our new helicopter mom

However little this may appear to the DT haters I'll take what I can get right now.

You know Trump well enough to know that can change when he feels like it lol.

There does appear to be a lull but it cant last long. Seems I read something about remote voting ? Is that something we have to look forward to ?

Oh I agree. I'm not for the package signed off on today but many seems to think it will help. I thought the breakdown Erik posted showed a good chunk going to the auto mfg industry but I could be wrong.

Wouldn't you if its the only thing you're gonna sell in the next little bit ? We've heard about 15k toilet seats get ready for $12,500 ventilators . I think that's what they asked for.

I'm sure he will have a chapter dedicated to it in his book

Just about to say the further out of town you get the better chance of getting essentials are. However limits apply to everything right now. Paper products, meats, sanitizers and cleaning products, and breads. Otherwise shelves are looking less bare than in weeks past and crowds are low and distancing intact
