I'm not one to hop on this political thread. But the amount of PORK in the Dem. version of the stimulus is unbelievable. Maybe I'd feel different if I where to be able to play the Kennedy Center. but the Rep. 1.8 version vs the 2.5 Trillion Dem version??? I need not say anything more.

Big Corporations... Face it folks we need them. Not just for your 401K's. If they do well we all do better.

This Virus is not We vs Them. We all have a foot in Bucket this time. And. We better start acting like human beings to each other. Kindness... Empathy... And dare I say Love.....

The Time to put petty differences aside is NOW. Not just for the politicians. But between us also. We are the Music makers. We will record our triumph or failures in song....

Yawn..

"On Saturday, John Bolton, a former Trump national security adviser, dismissed claims that “streamlining NSC structures impaired our nation's bio defense are false.'' In a tweet, he said global health "remained a top NSC priority, and its expert team was critical to effectively handling the 2018-19 Africa Ebola crisis. The angry Left just can't stop attacking, even in a crisis.''

-----------------

The White House says the NSC remains involved in responding to the coronavirus pandemic.

A senior administration official said Friday that the NSC's global health security directorate was absorbed into another division where similar responsibilities still exist, but under different titles. The work of coordinating policy and making sure that decisions made by Trump's coronavirus task force are implemented is still the job of the NSC.

Scott......, have you ever heard of a Black Swan event before???

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/blackswan.asp

Black Swan
By JIM CHAPPELOW
Reviewed By GORDON SCOTT
Updated Mar 11, 2020

What is a Black Swan?
A black swan is an unpredictable event that is beyond what is normally expected of a situation and has potentially severe consequences. Black swan events are characterized by their extreme rarity, their severe impact, and the widespread insistence they were obvious in hindsight.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

[A black swan is an extremely rare event with severe consequences. It cannot be predicted beforehand, though many claim it should be predictable after the fact.

Black swan events can cause catastrophic damage to an economy, and because they cannot be predicted, can only be prepared for by building robust systems.

Reliance on standard forecasting tools can both fail to predict and potentially increase vulnerability to black swans by propagating risk and offering false security.]

Understanding a Black Swan

The term was popularized by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a finance professor, writer, and former Wall Street trader. Taleb wrote about the idea of a black swan event in a 2007 book prior to the events of the 2008 financial crisis. Taleb argued that because black swan events are impossible to predict due to their extreme rarity yet have catastrophic consequences, it is important for people to always assume a black swan event is a possibility, whatever it may be, and to plan accordingly.

He later used the 2008 financial crisis and the idea of black swan events to argue that if a broken system is allowed to fail, it actually strengthens it against the catastrophe of future black swan events. He also argued that conversely, a system that is propped up and insulated from risk ultimately becomes more vulnerable to catastrophic loss in the face of rare, unpredictable events.

Taleb describes a black swan as an event that 1) is beyond normal expectations that is so rare that even the possibility that it might occur is unknown, 2) has a catastrophic impact when it does occur, and 3) is explained in hindsight as if it were actually predictable.

For extremely rare events, Taleb argues that the standard tools of probability and prediction such as the normal distribution do not apply since they depend on large population and past sample sizes that are never available for rare events by definition. Extrapolating using statistics based on observations of past events is not helpful for predicting black swans, and might even make us more vulnerable to them.

Our inability to predict black swans matters because they also can have such severe consequences. Inconsequential events, regardless of how unpredictable, are obviously less interesting.

The last key aspect of a black swan is that as a historically important event, observers are keen to explain it after the fact and speculate as to how it could have been predicted. Such retrospective speculation however, does not actually help to predict black swans.

Examples of Past Black Swan Events
The financial crash of the U.S. housing market during the 2008 crisis is one of the most recent and well-known black swan events. The effect of the crash was catastrophic and global, and only a few outliers were able to predict it happening.

Also in 2008, Zimbabwe had the worst case of hyperinflation in the 21st century with a peak inflation rate of more than 79.6 billion percent. An inflation level of that amount is nearly impossible to predict and can easily ruin a country financially.

The dot-com bubble of 2001 is another black swan event that has similarities to the 2008 financial crisis. America was enjoying rapid economic growth and increases in private wealth before the economy catastrophically collapsed. Since the Internet was at its infancy in terms of commercial use, various investment funds were investing in technology companies with inflated valuations and no market traction. When these companies folded, the funds were hit hard, and the downside risk was passed on to the investors. The digital frontier was new and nearly impossible to predict the collapse.

As another example, the previously successful hedge fund, Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM), was driven into the ground in 1998 as a result of the ripple effect caused by the Russian government's debt default, something the company's computer models could not have predicted.

Trump Derangement Syndrome

A contagious, debilitating psychiatric disorder, with a very diverse age of onset. Onset manifests in a precipitous decline in intellectual and emotional stability and resilience, indignant self-righteousness, gratuitous virtue-signalling, persistent disagreeableness and a defective sense of humor. First observed in the immediate aftermath of the 2016 US Presidential election, it rapidly reached epidemic proportions - penetrating all facets of American life with a notable and profound corrupting effect on key American institutions.

Sufferers are pathologically unempathetic to the rich diversity of boundary breaking, continent crossing, firewall flanking Russian cyberculture, silently enabling the algorithmicidal oppression of human non-conforming pre-transition Russian bots. Furthermore, a persistent condition is evidenced by a fugal grasp of reality, devastating loss of any sense of proportionality, constant hyper vigilance with an impulsive and reckless tendency to catastrophize. As cognitive impairment deepens, inevitably curiosity is subjugated to conspiracy, due process to performance.

This condition is highly resistant to factual reasoning.

for more on this awful disease and horrible debilitating mental illness call your nearest fake news organization.It is known that people like Don Lemon and many others at CNN also have it and so they could offer ways to avoid having it take over your brain

you are welcome

well it is sad, sad that people dont follow directions of common sense, sad that proper hygiene and self isolation when one is sick is not adhered like when we were kids, sad that the simple approach of quarantine is not implemented

. This is an unfortunate horrendous devastating fact. People it seems dont get it, stay home, dont go out, be aware of the fundamental basics of following common sense health regimens, like wash your hands, I see idiot men come walking out of the johns with out washing their hands. taking a piss and not washing your hands, are you bloody kidding me, what is wrong with their heads., not all some, enough that it makes me wonder, what the F is wrong with you, it is something we learned at home and in kindergarten,

we have become a breed of stupids. now here we are looking down the barrel of a shot gun taking aim at us and it aint gonna be pretty with this corona virus. people are frolicking around going to Mardi Gras parties, FFS. we are in total lock down here, yet some dumbasses are out and about, now it is near martial law, fines and jail time new laws passed to throw people in jail who dont abide by the rules laid out...

Imagine this scenario occurring back in the 60's. Do you think the hippies would have stopped having their anti-war protests? Do you think the concert scene would have come to a standstill? Hell, those guys were already getting beat up and shot at... and were "ready" to do it all again the next day! The hippies(in this way) were kinda being "treated" as "black folk"(what was then "allowable" for the treatment of "people"... so long as they were "black"). Imagine if "The System" back then would have had the audacity to release a virus(and cause a pandemic) to "get everyone in line"... under their "control"... while having it come across as being "justifiable"... as well as having "sympathetic approval" of most citizens. OMG! The HIPPIES would have called 'em out! Conspiracy Theorists that they were! This "good government" in which we have put our trust has "numerous viral weapons which they created on purpose". And our wonderfully "good" government "justified this horrible activity", all the while never once receiving a "negative response" from us(well, none were ever "popularized" by the media). And here we are today, "trusting"... this lowlife scum of the earth? -M-
