U.S.A.....making it great again

Chancer,

Thank you for sharing some of those facts. I am with you....as far as being baffled is concerned....you bring up some good points and some things that should not be overlooked as well.

U.S.A.....making it great again

CelticR....you are welcome. :)

I have heard that with this virus, no person will be turned down from receiving healthcare.

It is easy for me to sit back here...after the fact and play armchair quarterback...while we are in the middle of this thing. Fair.

But, we citizens of this beautiful country, are in some cases, forced to buy insurance. What is insurance for? Well...just in case something bad happens, we are covered.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Good point Molly.



I really don't know anything. But, I have to believe what the news stations are telling me....and we are now leading with the most cases, and that baffles me.

U.S.A.....making it great again

another reason it is as bad as it is, it is reported our supply chain from China for our supplies was interrupted. Okay...fair enough if it was for some plastic toy or something.

But...something as important as life and death was not already in stockpile for something like this?

Robert....I did here, at our local casino...they are still paying the wages of their employees even when the casino is shut.

I thought that was a beautiful thing.....especially from a casino.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Yes Molly...that sounds like a perfect way of spreading the virus, especially with how reportedly easy it is to spread.

Hello Robert....

All very good points.


You know, I mentioned this last night...but, I do wonder if this is a big enough event to be life changing. If so, let's hope it changes for the better....with a little less greed and a little more love.

Thanks Robert...

Pom....I might just take you up on that offer one day...about going to Norway. thank you thank you.

I wish I could offer the same to you...but we don't have open borders. ...another great feature of our country. lol

He also said, with people in a fearful state of mind, they are much easier to control.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom.... thank you for your kind jester.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom...I have heard a lot of beautiful things about your country. Maybe I should change the title of this blog...I guess I didn't mean it to demean other countries.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Molly...yes. Hopefully this is an eye opener and we do have the luxury of learning from it.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Pom, I have never heard of those.

U.S.A.....making it great again

I agree with that Molly.


I don't follow politics all that close...but from my understanding, the reason why we didn't have a universal healthcare system is that it would take away incentive for competition with offering top notch care.


Well....

U.S.A.....making it great again

I know I hear it said on the news, this is a learning experience.

and that is wonderful.


But...I have also heard it said on another show, that this "might be the big one."

....so....

is there ever a time where it is too late to learn.



I really don't know....just wondering is all.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Z....that is true also. I know China has a huge population and the way it sounds things are under control there. But maybe not.


I just know, through the years, there have been shows that have covered things like thing...posing scenarios where a virus spreads across the globe. It would have been nice for countries to have been prepared for something like this ahead of time.....it seems like it should have been a given, especially with the outbreaks in the past few years.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Thank you Molly for that clarification.

It would be nice of the whole globe was a "best" for everyone living on it....instead of the top one tenth of one percent.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Jim, I love my country too. And you are right, there is room for improvement with everyone of them on this planet. I guess the point of this blog is, if this is a lack of competence in our leadership...lets as civilians of this wonderful country recognize that and hopefully not repeat the same error twice.

U.S.A.....making it great again

Thanks Pom.


Will be going to sleep soon, nothing much else I can do at the moment.

U.S.A.....making it great again

.ooops. Z

U.S.A.....making it great again

Molly, maybe you have not heard it...but I know I have heard it here many times.


Z....it is just unbelievable that we have the top level of reported cases....maybe there are a lot of other unreported cases in the world; therefore, under reporting.

I don't know...really, I don't. It just baffles me with the numbers that are being put across my tv screen and we are suppose to be a great country..."again." If you use somebody's own words.

RE: A Day @ work

stay safe YSA....we are all in this together.

RE: How the times have changed !

Jim. good one

symptoms of Corona

Molly....so win/win potentially. :)

symptoms of Corona

Something that just crossed my mind....I have been drinking an unusually large amount of water lately. Before this isolation, I think I was on the run a lot and never really paid too much attention to if whether or not I was properly hydrating my body. But now, that I actually have some thought power left over to actually pay attention to my hydration, I have been doing that....drinking a lot of water.

If...hopefully I don't get sick....but if I get sick, would it not make sense that it would be better to go into that stage very well hydrated....seeing that having your typical flu usually leaves on on the edge of dehydration? I have heard that people who get the Corona virus hardly have any energy to even move. So...for what it is worth...this just crossed my mind.

Wow Robert, you were not joking about your horse implant if you are using bread bags for condos.

symptoms of Corona

Nice Pat...it makes me wonder if Robert was not in some sort of delusion with his visit yesterday.

symptoms of Corona

Robert....you may want to isolate yourself.

symptoms of Corona

Good advice Molly.


I have managed to create a busy schedule for myself, even while being locked down. The weather around here is actually beginning to warm up a bit. Spring is coming. :) Once that happens, there is a lot I can be doing outside too.

Stay safe there.
