  1. I don't know how accurate this is but this is damned scary. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8192015/Fifty-one-recovered-coronavirus-patients-test-positive-South-Korea.html
  2. Have your little tantrum all you want. The bottom line is that political stuff needs to stay in the political threads. If you can't tell the difference, we have staff members trained to help you out with it. If you want to complain more about life is unfair, feel free to PM. Going forward, baseball stuff can be on the baseball boards. If it isn't, it doesn't belong here.
  3. That is going to create some big problems. A lot of homes use temp agencies to bring people in when short staffed. Especially with COVID related illnesses, there will be homes that can't adequately staff up, and dangerously so.
  4. Again, we have a thread for politics related to COVID, let's keep this stuff to baseball.
  5. I had to re-read my post and make sure I didn't type it in another language or something, but when you are talking about politicians (you know, the people who engage in politics, such as Governors?) and passing judgement on their actions being "theatrical", that pretty clearly passes into politics. There is a thread specifically for this. Hopefully that is simple enough.
  6. We have a thread for the politics of this on off topic forum. Let's keep this to baseball and not cheerleading politicians.
  7. If it is extra, this could be stock picking money. If not, SP funds.
  8. And my absolutely free piece of advice, never, ever, never, ever, never keep your mind it target year retirement funds. They are excuses to do a lot of trading in the fund and charge a lot of fees. You can accomplish the exact same thing with an SP fund and a bond fund.
  9. Your other option is to avoid it entirely and move to an IRA. Instead of funds, I just buy the ETFs directly for a fraction of the price in terms of fees.
  10. The good news is he won't get fooled again.
  11. Never even heard of them. Check what their fee schedlules look like is a nice way to judge.
  12. First the figure was 1 or 2, then it was 15 cases going to zero soon.
  13. Jails and nursing homes are places you do not want to be right now. If you get one case, everyone gets it.
  14. DURING the Presidency? It would be eye-opening as Trump is the first President in HISTORY to refuse to separate out his personal wealth and interests from the office of the Presidency. He's also the first to set his personal travel and activities around enriching his own wealth. But then again he'd get on TV and say this wasn't happening despite all of the paperwork showing he is, and then someone would show a meme about Clinton and/or Obama and half the country would buy it like usual.
  15. Also worth pointing out for the record, they didn't stop playing baseball during WWII.
  16. The one I am waiting for is the suggestion of putting off the election because of safety considerations.
  17. The post mortem on this will be fascinating. There is no chance we get an accurate tally on cases and deaths while we are going through this. It will be interesting when we have historical perspective to see how close and accurate that we are.
  18. Its funny that it took this short of a time to get figured out.
  19. Yeah, you don't get to pretend this isn't a thing.
  20. That's the irony here. The Trump family fortune is very much because of the government. Fred Trump made his money on section 8 housing. Donald enhanced his fortune with tax fraud to launder money from his father to the kids. He also took tons of government money in all of his building projects. Now he is office and pushing public and campaign funds through his businesses so that he can be the 1st President in his to profit off of the office WHILE STILL IN OFFICE. He quite literally is the second generation of welfare queen in his family. The difference is the Trump scope is in the billions instead of thousands like most of the people he looks down on. The best part is the cult army that makes excuses for him, while seeing their paychecks laundered to him.
  21. Funny, as a person pretty firmly in between the two parties, it is exactly this kind of stuff that drove me out of the GOP after decades. I can't support a party that is afraid to even sort of criticize their leader out of fear. Nope as soon as it starts, the denizens start in on Obama or Clinton. It is disgusting.
