Some of you guys that work from home are very fortunate. Cuomo is going to come down with the hammer today on NY. Many people will be out of work again. The data is just not there to constitute what is a "super spreader". Luckily I'm considered essential.
Same here Rick, essential. I worked the entire time and I'm very concerned for this country's future. We were not built on unemployment and working from home, as much as many people have become comfortable with both. We need to get back to work, be careful and get through this. There's a 99.5% mortality rate and we're making like it's the zombie apocalypse. Our country will have a really long time to recover from this as we pay people to not work
I assume you meant a .5% mortality rate, but it's actually 2.2%. Doesn't sound like much difference, but it is when you consider the amount of cases involved. And while we cannot survive this way forever, opening up completely means that 2.2% will translate across the entire population, not the small percentage we've seen so far. And that will mean far more deaths.
Also, my company at least seems very comfortable being able to work from home, as more than 90% of us are doing so and we haven't skipped a beat.
That's fine for your company but it's the rest of the country I'm concerned about. You can find different %'s depending on sources and demographics. I happen to work for a company that hasn't laid anybody off but that doesn't mean the country is healthy just because I haven't skipped a beat. Small businesses are decimated, only big business allowed to remain open, why?
True enough, and why I actually deleted my comment after posting it, because my and your experiences are obviously not the norm.
They're very different and we're both fortunate, my wife is employed by the company that my employer serves, so we both rely upon one company for employment. I can't imagine that company is not being hurt severely long term by a lack of production. Meanwhile, construction on this site is off the charts. It was one of the only places that never shut down. Biden's plan is to raise corporate taxes substantially, he will penalize greatly the companies that kept NJ construction going during the pandemic, that scares me
Well, all we can do now is sit back, wait and see, because regardless of the Drumpf/Guiliani delusions, it's happening.
It's happening with lies, smoke and mirrors. We'll see how much can be proven, otherwise we'll get the weakest leader we've seen since Carter
So far, the answer is nothing can be proven. I think there's a reason for that, but you're not gonna want to hear it. 
Always trying to tell others what you think they know or want, sounds like an approach shared by those claiming victory prematurely
Well, based on your blind adherence to whatever King Drumpf tells you, I'm certain you don't want to hear the reason. If you did, we wouldn't be talking about it, or trying to figure out what you consider "premature".
