I told you I donated my stimulus to the needy. What did you spend yours on? To enrich the rich.

I did not receive a stimulus check. We're already rich, but do not share the unlimited greed of the super rich, who would kill anyone and everyone for another dollar to add to their billions. We already have enough to last many lifetimes. Thus, working to make more money was the last thing we want - and increasingly refuse to do so for this covid-19 bio-terrorism campaign of the richest people on earth for their profit, power and to establish the corporate-fascist government they want and will control.

What we value is the quality of the time we have in our limited lifetimes. Self declared totalitarian mayors and governors can go to hell. If a business requires a mask I either won't shop there or will put one on for private property rights. Otherwise, never. If I do put on a mask for protection, it will be a positive pressure full face shield and mask of the highest biohazard rating - which we have.

People who put tie a scarf around their lower face, one of those cheap ones sold in stores or a dust mask believing this protects anyone against virus are completely gullible idiots. The masks are to make people accepting of total submission more than wearing a T-shirt reading "I submit my entire existence to authority."

Most Jews voluntarily turned up to be sent to holocaust camps too. The government nor anyone in government would ever do anything to hurt people or say anything not true. Besides, their experts endorsed doing so as did many Jewish leaders in Germany.

The USA is EXACTLY where Germany was in 1934. The agenda of the new International Progressive Democratic Party is identical to the agenda of Hitler in Mein Kampf and also using terroristic tactics to do so. There is NO agenda difference other than Christians have replaced Jews as the primary target to eliminate.

You posted you are old so apparently you forgot your own message.

You posted you are terrified in grocery stores because someone might not be wearing a mask. The link provided is for a mask/shield combination that would protect you against ALL virus and ALL bacteria. I even linked to a positive pressure unit - which then are 100% protective and cause no breathing difficulty.

But you won't buy one or wear one because you don't even believe your own words. If you did, you would buy and wear one. Non-positive units can be bought for under $300 since you already decided you only need about 2/3rds as much oxygen when you breath.

You seem to be very confused, or maybe just indifferent to the actual facts.

I never said that I was old or terrified, or that anyone should do more than what is recommended by the experts who, unlike you, actually know what they're talking about. And you never posted a link in any response to me.

Maybe YOU should stay home if you're so frail that your life is in danger from breathing through a mask for 30 minutes at a time (like any surgeon does for hours at a time, WHILE DOING SURGERY).
 
For me, it is attitudes such as yours that has taken things away from me.

The reason why is simply for the fact that every other nation in the world understood that they would need to endure a time of suck to lock down to flatten the curve and to make the pandemic in their nations more manageable so that they could get back to "normal" more quickly. They were able to do that for two reasons. First, their governments, for the most part, had policies in place to assist their people during the hard times so that they could get back on their feet afterwards. America didn't. Second, and more applicable to you, is that people in other nations decided to put country and neighbors first before themselves and did what they needed to. Close to half of Americans won't do that.

Many Americans whine about not being able to get outside and hunt or get a haircut. Suddenly, we have a huge pack of a$$hats and Karens who are fighting tooth and nail to not wear a mask;something proven to mitigate the spread. Now, we have jerks in Congress and the President himself claiming to know more than the doctors and scientists and clamoring for re-opening. And they did.

And now we have new surge in infections. Now, many of the states who didn't do a good job in controlling the pandemic to begin with and re-opened are now closing back up again. Forcing the few states who are trying to get back to normal, that have stabilized to continue the practices longer because we can't control who comes to our states!

If the feds and our president didn't drop the ball, and if Americans simply did their social distancing, wore their masks, and endured a month or two of suck, if Americans came together and acted for the sake of their neighbors and their nation instead of acting like whiny, self-serving, self-important snowflakes, then we could have been in a better place right now where the pain would have been lessened and possibly shared in such a way that very few would be badly hurt.

But nooooooo....it's not about America. It's not about your fellow citizen....it's about what your poll points out....it's all about me, me, me, me. Nothing about sacrifice, nothing about putting out a better effort by the people to mitigate this...oh, no....it has to be about your view that this is about tyranny affecting YOU.

Did it occur to you that the tyranny is not coming from the government...but from self-serving people who only care about themselves and not their nation?
 
I'm doing just fine. You're the one living in constant terror and hate, starting each day by turning on TV to learn what you are to think, do, not do, say, not say and your emotional outbursts and disturbances you are to submit to today.

You could help them out more if not just reducing your oxygen intake while increasing your co2 intake, viruses and bacteria intake, but also if you added a little carbon monoxide to what you are breathing. Not enough to immediately kill you. Just to future weaken your immune system and make your oxygen starved brain even less functioning. Plus put a drip line of water to your throat or nose to increase how much water you are inhaling, not just your own hot wet co2 you are exhaling and re-breathing.

Your self inflicted slow ordered death would help defeat President Trump by being counted as a covid-19 death. DO MORE FOR THE CAUSE.

:lamo Gold man. Comic gold. This is almost worth coming here all by itself.
 
...and that's fine with me. I'm very lucky to have the life that I lead. Most of it I owe to my dear wife. She has a Master's in nutrition which keeps me from eating stuff that I really shouldn't eat. Having said that, we do "pig-out" once in a while but then it's back to me eating cardboard...No..not really.. :) :)

some of that good stuff is delicious...
 
A woman who gave up cooking when she retired and now has to cook again. Cooped up together. Bored. My wife and I finally agree on something; we both wish I were dead.......
 
I lost my faith in a society that speaks of "totalitarian effects" of a national pandemic.
 
I didn't lose mine, but my daughter lost her restaurant job for about 3 months. She's back at reduced hours.
 
I've often noted most on this forum are elderly and on fixed income, so lost and gave up nothing financially for covid-19 rules. In fact, they made money off it from stimulus money though the suffered no financial lose.

Since it is nothing to them, they demand totalitarian orders that tens of millions of people are thrown into immediate poverty. People who spent their lives building a business are summarily ordered into ruin. That millions of families are made homeless, lose their vehicles, furniture, everything. That they should starve to death. Have no money for prescription drugs. Give up everything - all so they can go outside feeling safe.

They wrap this in the totally self-serving and false slogan "Money is less important than life" since they lose no money. They actually are saying "My life is everything and every else's life is nothing."

This poll explores that total sociopathic ego mania.

This year has inexplicably been a prosperous year for me with my household income going up almost double.
 
I've seen it. It is worthless. Masks cause exhaling to exit out the sides and top - not straight ahead. It also means some of the virus remained in the mask and was held by the wet hot air - but releasing that too as it dries - so becomes a constant emitter of virus and bacteria. It also means the person is rebreathing virus and bacteria - plus the wet mask grows bacteria (and fungi).
Why aren't you washing it? You do know they can be washed right? A benefit of cloth masks. If people aren't doing that, then it is on them.

Why don't you buy a bio-mask/face shield and they you wouldn't have to worry about anyone? The homemade and dust masks people wear do not contain the virus, they spread it.

You don't have to go to a grocery store. They could just put it in your trunk and you can even order groceries for home delivery. You aren't really afraid.

Why would I buy a bio-mask/face shield when the purpose of my gaiter is to protect others from me possibly being infected. Why do you consistently misrepresent the message promulgated my experts about masks and what they are for?

I've also have lost most of my earnings from my business. I wish people would stop fighting for imaginary freedoms and wear a damn mask so I could run my business as I used too.

I watch these idiots go out complaining using people like me (business owner) to fight for their cause when it's in fact them that are keeping my business from earning any money. If they just would have complied, this virus would have been under enough control for people to relax and buyer confidence would have increased. Thanks to those "freedom fighters" I will now have years of trouble as this virus continues to grow.


Thanks, O.P.! It's people like you that don't help people like me. I rely on those seniors for a living. I live in a place that depends on snowbird money. You are the problem, not the solution because you are preventing the solution with your constant complaining and failure to prevent spread. Stop using business loss as a reason to lift restrictions, you're harming us way more than the restrictions are.
 
You take a break for a few months of wandering around grocery stores just because you want to not caring about infecting other people.

Here, it is not a matter of taking a break from going to the movie theater for a few months. It is a matter of never going to the movie theater again. The movie theater here and the one in the closest city both announced they have permanently closed having been financially ruined. But, then, the only mall is permanently closing for the same reason. But none of that matters. What matters to you is wandering around a grocery store demanding everyone be put at risk by you - as you demand they all be at risk for you. After all, the universe revolves around you. You demand others give up everything they have -just so you are not inconvenienced by not being able to do your walking in grocery stores. OMG that you instead go walk on a sidewalk!

In fact, wandering around grocery stores - when you could order online - is so important to you because of how important to you - that millions of families should be financially ruined as should tens of thousands of businesses - all for you, for power for the Democratic Party and for the profit of the richest people on earth. Don't hold your breathe waiting for your cut of the extra profits of the WalMart heirs and Jeff Bezos. They care as much about you as you care about everyone but yourself.

Stay home. Order online. YOU bear the burdened of what YOU want and need. Mess up your own life. Inconvenience yourself for your wants and needs.

Many, if not most, elderly are like little children. They think the universe revolves around them and that everyone has to take care of them and give them whatever they want.
Both movie theaters and malls have been in trouble financially for a long time, long before covid19 showed up.

It is far cheaper to wait a few extra months and buy a $20-30 bluray the whole family can watch multiple times (or rent from online service or redbox) than to spend $10+ per person just for tickets (usually $60-$100 per movie for a family of 4 after snacks). Their business model can't keep up with the times so it broke.

As for malls, again failing business model. Hence why many had gone under long before now (one I know of in Florida was converted into a church).

I won't write it all out again. Any American except children who get sick or dies of covid-19 deserves no one's sympathy because you did it to yourselves for reasons of pure greed and cruel amorality in your total love of foreign non-white foreign child labor sweatshop products.

Against our wishes, we worked our asses off 7 days a week, day and night, because our company has what is considered covid-19 critically essential products: sterilizers, sanitizers, and such. For one - the most advanced nano-tech non-toxic sterilizer that will slaughter any and all virus and nearly all other pathogens - even the hospital super bugs - we had the only remaining supply in the USA and with relatively enormous quantities. Usage ranges from laboratories and hospitals to food processing, container and contents sterilizing and the entire food chain.

But we also increasingly had ethical problems with doing so for many reasons. Why are we giving away time of our lives for this?

The goal of the covid-19 rules are in fact to profit the richest people on earth, to destroy the merchant (middle class), to convert the USA to a totalitarian fascist society, and to infect as many people with covid-19 as possible.

For this, we have increasingly added to the list of states we will not ship or sell to such as New York, New Jersey, California, Michigan, Oregon and Washington State. This weekend we will review the remaining states to see which others are most totalitarian to cut them off too. We are considering dumping all inventory and demolishing the two production/refining systems - propriety and unique - years of trial and error development.

For those who can even still find a phone number we will answer, we get screaming phone calls and raging emails every day. We just hang up on them. What do they need anything we have? Just wrap an old piece of T-shirt around their mouth and they'll live forever.

The goal of the covid-19 rules include killing as many people as possible. Who are we to oppose that? There is nothing we can do to stop the destruction of the United States anyway. We could have made still another fortune once it became clear we can charge anything we want to. But the sales are not needed profits, just consume the finite time we have for our lifetime.

Go ahead people, kill yourselves, destroy yourselves because the super rich propaganda outlets order you to. While it is terrible for us how the United States is being reduced to a 3rd world economy of a totalitarian fascism society, but we an afford to relocate. You all will get the joy of living in the next fully controlled fascist nation soon enough. But as long as you have a piece of cloth to tie covering your mouth your life will be perfect - or so you have accepted as sheep of their flock.
So your company is purposely causing itself financial difficulties?

We have no financial difficulties whatsoever. A person only has so much time in a lifetime. Time is overwhelmingly more valuable than more wealth.

Sure. This is your claim yet I find no evidence for any such company denying shipments to those states you listed unless the company has no website, which is highly unlikely in this day and age.

It's a shame, but those complaining most about rights are hurting everyone else. I think of our "my righters" on this forum more as "me firsters".
