Fuck yes

So. . we are going to add all these ICU beds, and hospital to care for the infected. . .and just who is going to staff them???

This is what my son is saying. Schools are closed so quite a bit of the staff needs to be out with their kids who are to be socially distanced, hence no programs to assist.

No! My damn utopian fantasy is greater than bartering!

I seriously read this wrong! (*result of not feeling good probably lol.) We really should re-evaluate purchasing powers.

I read it as "No! My damn utopian fantasy is greater than bartending!"

Retired but still licensed healthcare workers

If someone comes up with a superior version of Capitalism with none of the drawbacks of pure Socialism I will welcome it

Pure, selfless being...

Until they, hypothetical non-exisitance possibilities are no good to the real world

 

[Milktoast Bandit]

Yes this is real, during meeting with Texas mayor during coronavirus meeting:

Poor mayor... forgot to turn off his mic before um... excusing himself

You couldn't write a better comedy scene...

Hahahahaha!!!!! This is gold!

 

[Wyote]

Ha? You're Russian? I thought you were American

Its more that min thinks you're Russia. Victory once again Comrade.

Today, I am Romanian

It's really a toss up with bartending

Oh you mean old people? The people the virus kills most?

Yes! That's what de Blasio said in his presser yesterday or one of the other days that's not exactly yesterday. Unless I misunderstood, he said he's calling on the retired and licensed reserve corps of healthcare workers to help out. Currently, it's only voluntary. But I'm also in Indiana so I could be missing something.

Pretty sure you're not

*shrugs* What do you want from me?

To embrace Communism? Stalin did more harm to his own people than the White Russian Government. Mao's cultural revolution destroyed thousands of historic sites.

Should we regulate Capitalism? Absolutely I'm not saying the current system is perfect and doesn't need tweaks.

Hell, some Social Policies are a good idea. The Nordics show what a good blend of Capitalism with Social policies can do.

However to drop Capitalism entirely is further than ANY Social Democractic country has ever gone. And not a good idea.

Again, any new system which doesn't have the politial flaws of Socialism or the moral flaws of Capitalism I will embrace it. I'm not smart enough to come up with a better option but when someone does, I will support it.
