    Too much for states to expect guidance and support from the feds, who are slow to give either but for now I hold my criticism for those efforts, because this is the biggest thing I've ever seen since the Walking Dead! Or WWZ! Just the emotional fallout is daunting let alone the financial and health components.

    Consider just the canceled funerals and bereavement of the 1600 deaths already. That has to be devastating.

    Are you talking about the feds who are approaching 25 tril in debt? Those feds? I think we need to adopt a different model.

    We probably could make some changes in many things after this has been dealt with.

    CEO of Kennedy Center makes 4 x POTUS salary . This $25 million is on top of regular government support and massive private donations . Renovations were funded by private donations to the tune of $250 million . Every year private donations to the center exceed $100 million .So they don't need taxpayer assistance

    That's likely true of most of this money that's going to go out. It's what happens when pols figure out that they can hand out money without the need for increasing taxes.
