Third world kids dying................meat shortage in the US. I can see one problem fixing the other.
How many people are you willing to let die from one cause in order to prevent others from dying from something else? Does it change your opinion if one group is mostly children in the third world and the other is mostly elderly white people who drank a 50 ounce soda daily for 60 years or ruined their lungs with cigarettes ?https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-children-un-idUSKBN21Y2X7

But I don't care that much. I didn't have anything to do with the Wuhan Flu and the socialist/theftocracies that run most of the planet. What does piss me off is that my son was laid off. Oh and 30 million other Americans. And Adolph Brown is the immediate cause. He actually got hired back to help the business re-open, but that is still speculative given Brown's indeterminate view about "testing" and total safety. Investor's need certainty. Their job is to make a business judgment about whether people want to come back, not whether and when they will be allowed to open and then capriciously closed again if the second wave shows up. If you get type II diabetes from gluttony or lung cancer from smoking, I care - but not much. At least smokers pay for their care through huge taxes and a shortened life span that stops medicare and Social Security payments.I've been pretty clear. Do our best to keep the nursing homes out of the Wuhan Flu target zone. That has nothing to do with the rest of us. If you are 40 years old and undergoing chemo for cancer - then take care. If you are the counselor, hide under your bed and self-quarantine. If I want to go get a hair cut and endanger the young kids in Venezuela - then let me. Merck announced a significant sale drop in one of its leading cancer drugs as cancer victims can't get into the hospital. Chock up some more Wuhan Flu deaths.
