Ummm... I just want to be clear here... are you saying we should have shut down the economy before the pandemic materialized? Maybe in 2017? 2018?
Otherwise, I'm not sure what your suggestion is.

No that would be really dumb, in fact had there been preparedness perhaps the economy wouldn't have needed to shut down.
to EXPECT US TO PAY a "bonus" to encourage them to go back instead of saying either "your unemployment is gonna run out on this date so its up to you what you gonna do" or say "if you refuse a job (no matter how much you may think its beneath you) you not gonna collect unemployment" is just too much.

OK, I can agree with that. What preparedness though? I mean, how does one prepare for the unknown?
Any exact suggestions?

Wrong answer
Seems to me the people whose job it is to mitigate the problem have been the ones causing the problems.
The MSM has spent untold man-hours and airtime making sure everyone is terrified of a virus with a low death rate and a pretty specific target population.

Give me a couple hours when I can get to a computer.
The MSM are not either doctors or scientists tasked with the job of mitigating infectious diseases.
Reality is the doctors and scientists tasked with the job were ignored.

You actually believe that, well on that note you're right there's no room for a conversation.
If your willing to look however start with DR Syra madad and DR Dennis Carroll. There's plenty more if you're willing to expand your horizons.
I think your misunderstanding what I am saying.
there is a difference in entitlements and legit (my words) aid.

so what your saying is redneck called you out and provided facts , along with reasonable summation of events .
YOU didnt like it and since you could not counter him point by point you responded with basically a grade school version of "taking your ball and going home"

I gave you facts that can be substantiated by a simple Google search or just looking through ATS threads. Yes, I believe what I have seen myself over what CNN tells me to believe.
And you're right... to have a conversation, both parties have to be living in the same reality, and I'm not going into unicorn land to meet you.
Have a nice day.
