We have now erased ALL jobs gained since the end of the Great Recession. In little over one month. You're done for Endless Quarantine Karens. Done for. America won't stand for this.
I think they've demonstrated they will
Georgia is going back today. So are many other states.
The thumb suckers were crying about it, but now with the writing on the wall, they're trying to backpedal. Right on this thread.
Wouldn't bet the farm on that. And even if they do, the experts have already said they won't sign off on it. But Kemp owes his governorship to Trump so he's gonna be the loyal soldier..even if it means people die. See, that's not how you ingratiate yourself to the voters.
PEOPLE WILL DIE
Yes, we know Karen. I've heard Nazis and Terrorist too. What else you got? Is it working?
Hmm. I would think the whole death reason would be enough for you. But that's fine if you consider them to be Acceptable Losses. Just don't try to hold yourself out as a Christian. And I know nothing about the other two. They haven't entered into the conversation.
Then don't ever drive a car again. You don't, right?
Stop with the car analogies.
My car is incapable of transmitting a virus to me.
Another human being is.
Yeah, because the car analogy works. And so do a lot of other analogies. When we weigh risk v. benefit to society, we don't hold out as criteria, "must cause ZERO deaths" because we would never be able to operate that way--and you know this. This does not mean each individual death is not a tragedy. It is. But it's dishonest to argue from "If it saves one life" because that's not how we operate.
So really, stop
Again, stop with the car analogies. No comparison. When I hop into a car, there's a risk I get into an accident. But it's small. And there's a better than average chance I can avoid that accident by defensive driving. Zero risk? Of course not.
However, it's a bit different with an invisible virus that is transmitted through the air. Take the amount of people who walk past you or near you every day (when you weren't required to wear a mask). Given that anyone that walks within 6 feet of you could be carrying the virus, that's a really high probability that I will be exposed to it. Then I have to weigh my chances of developing a range of symptoms to the probability that I will be asymptomatic. Those odds ain't great.
Nope it's the very same. If you're going to screech at me about passing on a virus, then I'm going to screech at you about driving. Especially since you're asking me to give up my livelihood for it--to stay inside and God knows what else. Remember: you started the Karen-invoking "people" die thing, and you're not backing off.
It's a bad argument and wouldn't back off. So, there it is
