Well, there are reports starting to brew up that potentially millions of folks in Los Angeles county probably got the virus in the last 6 months, and barely over 500 people have died, 95% of which are the elderly or people with pre-existing conditions.
On a personal note, I've now lost 3 hours of pay this week already because I'm not allowed on public transit if there's already a certain amount of people on a bus or train. Even the folks who are working are now being screwed.
You could fit the amount of dead in California from this virus into a small dance club on a Friday night, yet millions are now unemployed and not sure when they will be working again.
I remember my family life when I was a teenager. If my brothers and sisters were stuck in the house this long, war would have already commenced. Yes, there are families that can handle this, but I guarantee there are families right now who are really suffering at the hands of abusive fathers, mothers, husbands, and wives.
Two years ago, close to 60,000 people died from the flu in the United States, a little more than that in 2009 with the swine flu, but 22,000,000 people didn't lose their livelihoods over it. Meanwhile, our already bloated deficit is now hitting Chris Farley levels of bloat.
And oh yeah, the food supply is dwindling, something you never hear from the media or the people in charge.
Basically, it's getting time to take the ship out of dry-dock and get things sailing again.....and soon. If this is our life in a couple of months when it gets hot and sticky outside, then things really might start taking a very awful turn.
