    Good for you. Things don't work the same way here. A person has to qualify to get into a home if Medicaid is paying for it. For families who can afford better than a nursing home, which are not end-of-life centers, other options exist.

    People are free to go to grocery stores, but groceries aren't free. Shut downs are leading to food price inflation and shortages, and people who were furloughed from their jobs may have no money for food. I know, that's a poor people problem. No problem if you're not impacted.

    I never said anything about people starving, I was pointing out to you that due to the financial hardships resulting from lockdowns, there are many people who can't just "go to the grocery store" as you've said, and they're being forced to rely upon charity to feed themselves.

    Can you acknowledge the truth of that reality? Lockdowns are causing dire financial hardship, right?

    A person has to qualify here too for government support so no different. A person could not choose to go into a care home just because they wanted to be waited on

    You replied to a post referencing "So you would rather people stay home and starve. Typical socialist."

    So these people "staying home and starving" are not capable of leaving the house?

    But those weren't my words.

    I was replying to your flippant 'let them eat grocery store cake' attitude towards the hardships of lockdowns.

    Can you acknowledge the hardships of lockdowns?

    Yeah, that's what he meant, since you're intent on delving into the absurd

    No spike. The IHME Model was updated yesterday. 0.5 people per 100,000 deaths per day and slowly declining.

    Don't worry. In a storm, the government will always be there to help you. Their great success dealing with a storm named Katrina shows that we should increase dependence on government, right?

    Then again she states,
    I know it was prolly a difficult sentence to understand and all but the ""If I'm OK then everything is OK" well that was just you fabricating something she didn't say..

    I get were she is coming from, as I DON'T EVEN KNOW A SINGLE PERSON WHO HAS HAD COVID, either..

    IHME is at least a week OUT OF DATE and that chart is MISLEADING because it is for COMPARISONS and NONE were included.
