sys is right that this is a big problem. Probably shouldn't be fighting with China right now. (They make shitloads of masks)

Cuomo seems to be doing the right things but his PowerPoint is hilarious

Pushing taxes back to July 15th is pretty neat.

I mean, the potential impact of corona virus was in the news well before February 13.

If you had been keeping an eye on this story that was pretty big, internationally, between early january and mid february, you didn't have to be Jim Cramer to know that it could have dramatic effects on the market if it got out of control. I'm not sure what information these members of congress had access to that the general public didn't that would have made any serious difference.

I think the more important question is: if these people knew this was coming (or the odds of it coming were significant enough to act financially on it), why wasn't anyone ringing the appropriate alarm bells or taking the appropriate action in congress?

Yes. This is my problem with this whole thing. If you are worried enough to move out millions of investments, you should have raised the alarms quicker and louder, that's what the eff you were elected to do.

We don't even have masks or testing in middle March.

really the questions of "why did they sell?" and "why didn't they warn?" are basically the same question

That's probably true for the inaction on the part of the republicans. I haven't researched it much, but were democrats going bananas in congress in January/February about the virus?

I think this is the question the majority of people are asking. Selling vast amounts of shares while being inactive in your job and assuring the American people that nothing is wrong is what makes it unethical. Maybe not illegal but who gaf. We don’t need more people in jail.

The hospital here is having a donation drive for PPE. As of yesterday, there are 6 confirmed cases in the county. Six.

In case anyone was wondering the large warehouses that ship wine out of Northern CA were deemed "essential" and are still operating as normal.

The stock transactions are just icing on the cake of them knowing how bad this was going to be and not doing more or anything to have the country prepared.

No one will have the stomach to want to make the changes we need to do to scrub money and corruption out of our government. And by no one I mean all of you moderate fucks content to sit fat and happy with your comfortable middle class lives. Me too, I guess, but at least I'm vocally passionate about wanting change.

It is what it is. I been saying this about politics since the '70's. It has gotten much worst BTY.
