I think the entire point of my post was in support of small business as opposed to big. In particular hospitals who are on the front lines of the fight.

I said it in response to the entire post you made . Stop ignoring what you said in your own damned post

:facepalm::bang: You know what Jorge, I have given you the benefit of doubt from the moment you arrived and started bickering with posters, what I will START ignoring is you.

Disregard.

This is just another straw man argument from him.

Clearly you are happy that hospitals and businesses are getting money. But you think hospitals should be getting more money than they are, because they are on the front lines of this fight against the virus. They are the ones risking their lives trying to help these sick patients.

I don't think those things need to be mutually exclusive. You can be happy for both, but want more for hospitals.

Welcome to the club. I've been ignoring him for weeks. Honestly, it's great.

I've never seen someone disliked by so many on here in such a short amount of time.

Honestly, it's impressive.

My mom has a Dr appt this morning. Follow up for eye surgery she had last week. I'm currently sitting in my truck waiting for her. I have no desire to be inside the waiting room.

Appreciate the info doc.

I don't blame you one bit... I'm hearing stories of healthcare workers living in hotels.. because they can't help but come in contact with it, and they DON'T want to bring it home to their families.... That's got to be hard... but I can't blame them at all.. I would too...

I used to work in a hospital in NYS... I am so sick of hearing Cuomo complain of hospital capacity problems...

FACT: In NYS, you don't downsize by 1 bed without NYS government approval.. and they can order you to shut down if they feel there are too many beds... I know the hospital I used to work at has shuttered it's doors in the years since I've left... and many others...

So the fact that NY does not have the capacity is directly the fault of the NY government in Albany... Suck it up Mr. Cuomo... Welcome to dealing with the fallout of some of your decisions from a few years ago... They may not have been yours (your predecessor), but the assembly and state Senate are major players in the game... and as the governor now.. it's just became YOUR FAULT! simply because you're the governor.... Welcome to politics 101...

I'm very happy that it sounds like they are going to extend the regular season to get in a 100 plus games but the idea of playing the playoffs and WS in neutral warm weather sites kinda sucks IMO, the way YS rocking and rolling in the playoffs is a huge advantage for us

no doubt it would take Home field advantage way down to only being who gets the last AB... it certainly will not mean you have the fans behind you.

But in this case, you have to do what you have to do... I'm sure that playing the WS here in Phoenix would be welcomed by the players... in November, it's still 80-90 degree's and sunny....

No doubt small business will be the hardest hit...and the middle class will be as well... the lower class will have unemployment, which can pay as much as many of them would get while working (12 years ago when I changed jobs.. I would out of work for 3 months.. unemployment was almost what I was getting while I was working.. and the fact that I didn't have to commute meant that it went just as far!)

We'll have to see if your government, which at best can't get out of their own way to save a life, will be able to make something that actually helps the people... and those small businesses that many rely upon for thier jobs..

This is the worst coverup in human history. 5 million people left Wuhan before Dec 31 as China never reported this terrible virus.

But Blame Trump for a slow response...

That is like a starting pitcher(China)giving up 7 1st inning runs and then the bullpen( Trump) gives up 6 more runs and they lose 13-10 and never tie or get the lead.

Starting pitcher gets the loss!

You do realize that a majority of them only traveled within China itself, right? You do know how big China is, right?

Dr, if China reported this to the World Heath Organization back in Nov then maybe it is somewhat contained.

Once the bodies started to pile up in hospitals and in the gutters and it was finally reported they started a response....


But go ahead and Blame Trump!

Why can’t Trump have hope?

For the ****ing love of God.

Who here is blaming Trump?

I have yet to see someone say it's trumps fault.

I've seen people, myself included, be critical of some of the things Trump has done since, rightfully so.

I just watched an interview with Peter Gaynor, head of FEMA, we absolutely ****ed. He's a ****ing moron.
If he isn't a moron , he's complicit in lying to the public.
He said zero.
Asked if states were outbidding others and hoarding things like masks, FEMA would tell those states to surrender this things to areas that needed it? "Uh, uh. We would hope no one is hoarding". People are hoarding TP for ****s sake.
They are ****ing allowing bidding wars over ventilators as we speak. Right now, NYC need them. Montana does not.

WTF America?

Do you honestly think that things will be back to normal on Monday?
If you do, you are blind.
If you don't, then why the **** is Trump saying it will be back to normal?
