you are not stupid so then you know that living will be horrible if we don't have the means to support it . Tell me what human society was sustained without people showing up for work every day . This model of everyone staying home is not even sustainable in the short run and you know it .

of course . I have no intention of getting anyone sick . It is as you said . New cases are predominantly young fools of the pampered generation . No law was going to keep them from congregating at the beaches when it got hot . And no bar closures was going to prevent them from buying their booze at the liquor store instead and recreating the bar scene in their homes . We paid these morons to NOT work . Now you see the result of that idiotic policy .

Well of course I know it but work can be accomplished by other means, much can be done at home in this technological society, and much can be done without. Morons do what morons do, here we call them bogans but they are a shiftless lot anyway. In your society booze is cheap, here it is not. You can't stop people getting sick, but if they stay in their own homes there is less chance of it, that much, at least, is proven. The best vaccine is distance

Unfortunately, those folks conservatives have viewed as lazy throwaways not worth anything but a pittance are now the "essentials" needed to keep the economy going while everybody else works from home. No hazard pay either as they fall sick and die so Tom can have somebody to do the real work.
