    The great thing about congress is they are immune from insider trading laws. That said, @GrandpaSankey saw this coming.

    This board was still in denial that this was a real crisis up until a week ago.

    What's real about it? Gotta play the game now that it's been manifested into one.

    Tanking the world economy was worth it if it gets the orange man out of office.

    Ah my stupid Kunt of a friend, here's the difference. You have to lie and claim that I believed and supported something I never even mentioned once. While all I have to do is quote your own words.

    It's wasn't. And isn't.

    The government shutting down the economy and the media fanning the flames is the crises. Inflicted by the stroke of a government pen and cheered on gleefully by the media.

    It's still not a real crisis but the panic was always going to tank the market

    That's what Trump tried to prevent when you were crying about that

    Just because this guy dumped his stock doesn't change the other features of this scam

    It's not a real crisis. It's a manufactured crisis that is costing lives so its real in that sense.

    I don’t know. Depends on how you define “crisis.” A viral pandemic with no established vaccine or effective treatment that is particularly harmful to elderly patients sounds like a crisis to me.

    Is that not what this is? I mean, I’ll be fine, I won’t lose my job or any money I can’t recoup, but it sure does stink for those that are affected by it. But I guess they made bad financial decisions not to prepare themselves for this, so it’s not really a crisis.

    If one thing can come out of all this, ditching that insider trading exemption would be the best.

    You mean like H1N1 in 2009?

    Besides the China virus, we have a flu that infects millions and kills thousands of elderly a year, we have an vaccine and a huge number of the population shrugs their their shoulders and makes up reason why they don’t bother to get the vaccine. The altruistic bullshit by hypocrites I’m seeing is nauseating

    I mean, H1N1 had a morality rate of .02% whereas COVID has one of 2%. That seems like an increase, but that’s me. Apparently H1N1 is also less contagious? But that was just a science article I read. Moreover, herd immunity against H1N1 and the normal flu seems to have been built up prior to 2009 since people did get regular flu vaccines and 2009 wasn’t the first instance of an H1N1 virus.

    Lots of unknowns for COVID so far. But I mean, that’s me.

    That 2% rate is going to go way down as more are tested.

    The hypocrite part is that in 2009 no one gave a shit that millions were getting sick and thousands dying. Business as usual. No for some reason it’s a panic and we need to bankrupt people In an “abundance of caution”. The cure will cost more than the disease.
    Sure, once the tests are available.

    I think people cared but you didn’t hear about it as you do now because the media wasn’t available. Altruism for people affected by this pandemic didn’t just start now, it’s that people are more able to express it because they’re confident it’ll be heard. It’s like Trump’s base.

    Anyway, the good news is that the majority seem not to be turned off by others’ compassionate responses to this. I like that.

    Not one word about the swine flu in the 2010 state of the union address. Why?

    Your emotional and feelings based approach is noted and received. Glad it wasn't a thing in 2009. At least it bought us 10 years of prosperity

    I'm not upset at all. Just pointing out how this idea that the reaction to the virus is a left wing plot to take down Trump is fucking stupid but of course the Tugtards swallowed it whole.
