When it really happens: SHTF...

Perhaps it's just perception based on the panic and fear the media and some politicians have created.

That's the worst thing about this whole thing. AND People REFUSE to move on.

We are again reducing the seats in trains and, I'm ready to bet, also on planes due to nothing but political disputes.
The government extended the state of emergency to keep doing what it wants beyond and above our poor constitution, and the fact that the railways were easing up the restrictions, exactly as the airlines did, was a tad embarrassing to them.
So, close down everything and who cares if Italy now lives of tourism. Kill another bunch of restaurants, hotels, resorts... We have plenty.
No-one will ever be held accountable for this, so the most shrewd and ideologically set jackals can go the way they want.
We'll have lots of tears to cry in a couple months...

Deaths from Covid in PA are ranging from 0 to less than 10 per day now since July 25th and the governor still has us in a state of emergency. He simply doesn't want to give up the power he took upon himself. There is no reason for it anymore. We have 102 covid patients on ventilators out of a total of 941 being used and a grand total of 4430 available. There have been zero deaths under 20 years of age, and the survive-ability rate for those between 20 and 29 is 99.95% of those that get it. And they still are afraid to open the schools. It's ridiculous.

Sounds familiar...too much in fact...

The state has been gearing up for fall sports. Starting a few weeks late but still starting. The Governor opened his big mouth today and suggested they are all postponed to January 1. Weird as that's when the new government starts. Also weird because there hasn't been a single death under the age of 20 in the entire state to Covid. 100% survival rate. Evidence is showing that young kids don't even transmit it to other people when they get it and that it's just harder for them to get it. When they do, it's so mild they don't even know they are sick. We seem to be having a lot of that in adults today also. Head Coach of the Philadelphia Eagles tested positive, wasn't sick. Governor of Ohio was tested because he was meeting the President and was positive. Isn't sick Glenn Beck who I mentioned the other day as his entire family got it but he didn't may have it now. Been off the radio for two days but expected back tomorrow. He's been broadcasting from his house anyway. So he was at least sick enough he didn't want to talk on the radio. He is also very high risk with immunity issues plus he's overweight, along with a couple of other things. Be interesting to see what he says.

Finally found a mask that fits.
The situation.

Remember a few months ago? The only people wearing masks were robbing convenience stores.
My own bank had a teller ask be to remove my cap to deposit money!
Now you are taking a chance of being arrested for not wearing a mask. Or at least shamed.

Our Costco suggests wearing a mask, so I did...didn't get the reception I expected though...

Outstanding choice.

I really love how people, all around the world, can make fun of this situation.
That puts me in a great mood.
We will survive more because of our capacity of laughing about it than of worrying.
Well done guys!

I agree about the laughing. But we must also keep in mind the sinister uses to which some are using this present situation. (I would refer others to your 1894 thread here)
