    Social distancing appears to be working in other countries. That provides hope for death reductions here if we stay the course.

    Sorry you were disappointed.

    Like Sweden or Mexico

    What is your control group? What is your proof on saving millions of lives?

    The models didn't take destroying the economy into account when predicting mass death? Why not? The people making the models caused social distancing

    It's a bit late for "appears"

    Stick to pithy one liners.

    Social distancing isn't the same as closing down your business and telling you to stay home. And maybe it needed to happen.

    But in many, if not most places around the country, it's time to open up the businesses that can use social distancing and move the fuck on.

    Leftists don't understand the difference because none of them are business owners, let alone small business owners, except the absolute elite.
