It's a shame that the Rona doesn't play by their rules.
This is the dumbest cause for rebelion.
I've never said rn.
I've said it's what's coming.
I like how you're suddenly adding "rn" to everything.
Did you come to the realization your previous posts will not age well?
Well, we're years away from bread lines and people are dying rn.
We will see who's posts will age the best.
This is really easy to forget.
There's a few ingrained national character traits but this is probably the most important one because it has been the case through every wave of immigration from the 17th Century colonists until now
what is this years away stuff?
25% unemployment
1/4 workers without jobs
how is that sustainable?
Like cheap Chinese and slave labor?
Or Puritanical religious nutcases that needed to be bailed out by the Native Americans so they didn't starve?
All of the above.
On the Big 5 Personality scale they were low in agreeableness.
"This sucks, I'm leaving! DGAF if I never see my family again either."
the entire developed world is using contact tracing to intelligently identify who needs to quarantine.
America is rolling it out as well albeit on a state-by-state, county-by-county basis.
if you say I have a plan to address the virus and it does not include contact tracing, that's the equivalent of saying i am going to learn to surf without a surfboard. it will not happen.
but yeah no need for science, logic and adhering to what the experts have been saying since day one - let's just wave flags and rage. that's the better route.
America: the best at securing bailouts
the underlying assumption is wrong
its not nearly as deadly as originally thought
so why would you impose broad scale invasion of privacy?
legally i am not sure if cooperation with contact tracing can be forced. probably not.
no doubt America will include some "rugged individuals" that refuse to cooperate but most will because being able to track potential infections is a key ingredient necessary to reopening the economy.
this process is already moving forward; it's a good thing IMO.
so what happens when everyone realizes that large % of the population have already been exposed with no noticeable effects?
It's not sustainable and because the lockdown is not forever, those figures won't last.
I don't understand what the problem is.
The country is slowly opening up in stages.
The tests and contact tracing is ramping up slowly.
Doing anything else right now would be foolish.
Are you advocating for full open over night?
Very well said.
It's just bummer that those rugged individuals and rebels will say that contact tracing is violating their freedoms.
100K+ people, at minimum, will die in America from this virus.
to me personally that is way more than enough suffering to warrant the use of contact tracing.
you and everyone else that posts on here are welcome to determine how many must die before getting "on board" with what is going to happen anyway.
Why weren't you crying out when flu killed 90k last year?
That's 0.03% of the population
That's not even close to a level of suffering to give up a fundamental right of privacy
