Depends on how it's dealt with as things get more complicated.

interesting little factoid . the CDC official who did the chicken little act that spooked the markets this week was none other than
Nancy Messonnier,who just happens to be the sister of the former acting FBI Director Rod Rosenstein .You remember him ? He took over as acting FBI Director when Comey was fired and immediately appointed Robert Mueller to be the special investigator of the Russian hoax . Could it be that there are certain people in the government who think it would be beneficial to cause a financial panic in the run up to the election ?

Was she ginning up fear as conservatives think, or giving a fair warning that this could be bad and you better prepare for the worst? The dufus and conservatives are quick to downplay this crisis, while the doctors are not, and the markets weren't spooked, so protecting themselves in light of current conditions to ride this thing out. As a capitalist Tom, you know well that's what rich guys do when they see it coming and they have watched what other countries are doing and CTOA against what will be a huge financial hit.

That's my spin Tomder, because deep state fake news conspiracy intrigue aside, there is a looming health crisis. Just wait until health workers here get sick as in California and become understaffed. Will we shutdown March Madness or the baseball season...or NY, for days weeks or months? Ain't no vaccine yet so while you hope for the best, plan for the worst.

So you're suggesting we just throw open the borders and let anyone and everyone in? I don't think that's a good plan for controlling a pandemic.

I think you should make sure we have enough resources to take care of those that are sick, and may get sick. Call up your rich buddies and get some of those closed rural hospitals open.

That's your solution for everything. "Let someone else pay for it. Tax the rich but don't tax Tal!"

Amazing. You really believe we should just let anyone and everyone into the country. I'll vote that we move them into your neighborhood. I know it would make it happy since, being a charitable, liberal soul, you'll be happy to have the chance to take care of them and pay their med bills.

true dat . I was a strict free trader in 2016 . He has made the case why the ChiComs are the exception to the rule .

chicken little bs . No country is more prepared than the US . The reason the Chicoms and Iran are ill prepared correlated with the lack of liberty in those countries .

There is no other country on the planet better prepared to react to a pandemic . You know it and I know it .

Yes it is amazing that the Schmuckster only sees $8.5 billion as the solution when it is most likely that any spread of this will come from a lack of travel restrictions or REAL border control

tomder55: Actually, I feel even stronger about the ChiComs….in fact: SCREW THE CHICOMS TO HELL! I hope this sh&t they brewed up in some biological weapons lab come boomeranging back on them so hard it chokes out that snaked-eyed President For Life Xi and his whole stinking arsed Politburo. Then, all these bastards that were so quick to shut down manufacturing here can start pulling back from Red China and forget about chasing slave labor all around the globe. But honestly and truly, RED CHINA CAN GO STRAIGHT TO HELL!

Hope your right The dufus ordered those paper masks for us, hope he gets testing kits too! Kind of early to blame the brown people though, since the yellow people and the white people are the ones being hit right now.

As a strict free trader, why is Big Biz even doing business with China if they're such cheats, and taking advantage of us?

Yum! Me too! My favorites are shrimp with lobster sauce and combination fried rice. What's yours?

Nope. And I noticed those Kentucks are now going cheap by making cole slaw outta the white core of the cabbage and not outta green cabbage leaves.

They have gone downhill around here. I've gotten to where I don't normally go there.

KFC is chicken.

Doesn't the "C" in KFC stand for "Chinese"? Kentucky Fong Chinese? Something like that?

Sweet and sour pork. That is Chinese, isn't it? Love egg rolls. My wife is not a fan, so we don't go very often.

I'm sorry, 'Clete. I forgot they've expanded their menu. We rarely go there anymore. McDonald's, Arby's, Chinese, and Thai are usually our choices, plus three Chicago franchises: Buona Beef, Portillo's, and Brown's chicken.

My favorite is Kimchi...but that is Korean!
