If you cant wear a mask for your own selfish reasons.

What should we do to boost the economy, print more money?

Build hospitals? Most of them are not even full yet, we dont need anymore we have a vaccine now.

Grants? Who pays for those?

Everyone wins? With your plan everyone loses, you think like a democrat and have no money in the bank.

The people who don’t die pay for it. The profits of the privatised hospitals pay for it. Why are you asking questions already answered in the post?

C19 is here, can’t shut down the economy forever. Need a large civic project to boost the economy. Build hospitals. Extra capacity for increased health burden to reduce lockdown. jobs too, fuck it build it thru grants to private sector, everyone wins.

Too much liability. Newts firms got a regulatory stranglehold on the process required to open up and operate a hospital. Poors don't matter, plus prison labor for mass graves, special on Netflix, they just picked up SG1.

Three pages a day, keeps responsibility away. Nothing like invisible genocide crippling people and handing more power to the states and the institutions that enable, empower them.

Douglass only believes in 1 thing:

Wearing masks is a vote to shut down the economy permanently.

He’s not considering the cotton industry, textile manufacturer and sales! Buying masks boosts the economy.

No I believe that wearing masks is fine but is effectively functioning as a placebo in our society because the vast majority of masks being worn don't provide much protection against transmission. Which isn't the end of the world, because covid does not appear to be very dangerous at all for the vast majority of people.

Lockdowns on the other hand I think are *extremely* bad because the health risks associated with contracting this particular disease are miniscule compared to the societal risks of shutting down entire local and state economies for an entire year.

I'll give you masks, I'll even pretend that covid is airborne ebola; all you have to do is explain in specific detail why *lockdowns* are justified.

10 months and idk how many separate threads, but on page 23 of the mask thread, Douglass finally figured out 'wearing masks', does not literally mean 'shut down economy'

and he says people dont explain their arguments to him lmao

How does america have 5% of the worlds population and 20% of the worlds infections...??? How can that be, if most people wear masks??

Thats just not true. Most people wont wear masks. Unfortunately, the biggest babies in the USA happen to be the largest generation. Boomers.

Other countries taking similar measures have exterminated the virus. It's a testament to how little cooperation our idiot peons have exercised in general with the cause of saving lives. Doug will tell you it means masks don't hardly do anything.
