Oh hold the horses there Mac - YOU have been claiming this economic upswing is the result of Obama. You don't get to flip on it now.
Exactly right - they aren't against re-starting the economy as much as they are against it because Orange Man Bad.
One thing is set in stone, the Democrats on here don't have a clue how our capitalistic economy works. This virus will pass and yes some die and that is awful but the people left need to still survive. What is confusing is the Democrats want all these new Socialistic Government Programs like Medicare for all, Government paid College Education and forgiven student loans. But they have the Gaul to complain and say that big corporations don't deserve aid to keep our economy from crashing. They have no reason to hate Trump, This president has been working hard for all the people since day one. If you Democrats have to continue to sink so low that you can't debate without name calling and accusing others of doing or being Wrong, it is because you have no argument, no Real Facts, nothing with any merit to debate with.
There is more truth in this post than we can ever get from left wing media. Read it! It is pure golden facts.
Socialism is easy to research, a prime example is what Trump did the other day, By using the Media's own broadcast of False statements and there propaganda. The rise of the Third Reich, Joseph Goebbels was the Minster of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. That person today is George Soros who funds Black Lives Matter, and Media Matters the Propaganda Machine of the Democratic Party
Also, the think tank New America is funded also by Soros who sends the story of the day to the media outlets as to what the news of the day is to be, If you notice on every media propaganda outlet CNN, MSN, Bloomberg, ABC, CBS, NBC. All the big newspaper outlet Times and Post every one almost verbatim says exactly the same words. That Proves The Propaganda Machine. Only a fool would hear the same words from so many people all with the same verbiage and think it was a different opinion, or thought.
As a side note understand George Soros links back to Nazi Germany and the Propaganda machine of the Third Reich. The Democratic Party of Today, wants Socialism, Trump screwed them badly.Obama had America on the ropes, until Trump showed America the truth of what the Democrats had done, beginning with Clinton and NAFTA. Companies shipped Manufacturing jobs out of the Country Big Corporations began moving out of America. The middle class jobs were leaving, America's workers were put out to pasture, Unemployment grew, Welfare Grew, Food Stamps. Then came food and utility increases, Gas rose our National debt rose People could no longer afford homes and walked away. Cities emptied as jobs left. The Idea of Socialism is only Government can help people, The idea is to remove Hope, Religion, Work. until despair. The election of Clinton would finally end Capitalism, and the Government would then step in and assume control of America's big Business and put people back to work at their dream wage of 15 dollars an hour for all. Remember hearing this preached? Trump blew that up and turned the Country around.
Socialism is but FOOL's GOLD. and The Democratic Party is but the Ship Of Fool's chasing the pot of Gold Our Education in Public Schools and Most Colleges is joke, and I consider it shameful The Public school teachers union is the lowest class of professional's in America today. They no longer educate they simply spew forth Daily Propaganda to children And the Socialist so-called Professors of these left Propaganda Colleges are worse. This is the first generation of America's children who are being less educated than their parents. The proof is in the world rankings of the highest educated group of children in grades 1-12 we have over the last 18 years either remained the same rank or dropped the ratings as of last year we stood 18 in the world. I wonder why all Democrats oppose charter schools, could be there children test higher every year than public schools?

Trump Says U.S. Has Enough Test Capacity Amid Shortage Concern
President Donald Trump said there’s enough coronavirus testing capacity to put in place his plan to allow a phased reopening of the economy, even though some state officials and business leaders have raised alarms about shortages.
“We’ve already built sufficient testing capacity nationwide so states can begin their re-openings,” the president said Friday at the White House.
Vice President Mike Pence told reporters that the Trump administration would work with governors to ensure labs are fully using their capacities.
The new guidance Trump announced Thursday relies on governors to decide when their states are prepared to attempt to reopen businesses and schools, based on declining indicators of infections and health-system readiness. The plan was faulted by some Democrats and others because it does nothing to address a shortage of testing for the virus.
Business leaders and lawmakers told Trump in phone calls this week that the U.S. must increase its testing capacity before attempting to reopen the economy. Trump also tweeted on Friday that “the States have to step up their TESTING!”

12 hours ago · coronavirus 'I have never been so mad about a phone call in my life' Democrats erupted after receiving vague answers from Vice President Mike Pence about efforts to ramp up coronavirus testing.
Senate Democrats exploded in frustration during a conference call with Vice President Mike Pence and Trump administration officials on Friday afternoon, with one normally laid-back senator asserting it was the most maddening phone call he’s ever taken part in, according to participants and people familiar with the call.
The call between President Donald Trump’s coronavirus task ******* and Senate Democrats on Friday left the Senate minority “livid,” according to one Democrat on the call, because of the lack of clear answers about national testing for the disease.
Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) called it a “dereliction of duty,” said a second person on the call. King added: “I have never been so mad about a phone call in my life.”
King is generally among the most mild-mannered senators but was extraordinarily frustrated with the Trump administration’s testing woes. He said the administration had left states adrift.
Pence responded to King by saying there have been misunderstandings about the federal government’s work with states, according to a person familiar with a call, and the vice president explained the way the administration had been coordinating with states to ramp up testing. Pence was even-keeled in the face of the frustration, that person said. But Democrats said afterward they felt he wasn't giving clear answers to their questions.
Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) pressed Pence on Trump’s Twitter feed at the end of the call, asking why the president was trying to incite division by tweeting “LIBERATE” Virginia, Minnesota and Michigan and aligning himself with protests in those states over their lockdowns. Pence said the administration is working with governors but that the president will continue to communicate with the American people as he always has.
Another Democrat on the call said the Trump administration hopes to have enough tests at the end of the month to be able to reopen some parts of the country and the economy from lockdown but that it was vague on the details and overly optimistic in its thinking.
“The fundamental problem is a lack of capacity, which at this point they can’t fix. So they are explaining it away,” the Democrat said. “Everyone was livid.”
After the call, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) released a statement saying Pence expressed willingness to work with him on his concerns about the treatment of rural health care providers in the massive aid package passed at the end of March.
Pence also spoke to Senate Democrats last week, a call that ran so long members scheduled Friday’s call to continue the discussion.

Mattress Mack, Tilman Fertitta among business leaders advising Gov. Abbott on reopening Texas
Mattress Mack is joining Tilman Fertitta and other business owners across the state to advise Gov. Abbott on how to reopen Texas.
HOUSTON — Texas could soon be open for business.
On Friday, Governor Greg Abbott announced a phased approach to restart our economy.
“The governor called me Sunday and asked me to be on the task *******, and I was honored to do it," said Jim "Mattress Mack" McIngvale, owner of Gallery Furniture.
It’s a tough job the Houston talent will tackle.
“The thing we need most is customers, but the priority is safety of course,” he said.
McIngvale told KHOU 11 he supports wearing masks, enforcing social distancing in retail stores and taking employee temperatures before the start of every shift.
There was a noticeably optimistic tone coming from the governor as he outlined a plan.
“The worst of COVID-19 may soon be behind us," Abbott said.
Starting Monday, state parks will reopen. Visitors will have to cover their faces, keep six feet apart from people they don’t live with and limit groups to five people.
On Wednesday, restrictions on surgery will be loosened, allowing for non-essential medical procedures.
On Friday, retailers can offer to-go products that can be picked up at stores.
However, in Houston, there’s a more cautious tone.
“If we take our foot off the brake, we take our foot off the brake, we could easily start moving back in the other direction," said Mayor Sylvester Turner.
“The governor emphasized it’s going to be a very gradual rollout, and the first thing we are going to do is make sure everyone is safe," McIngvale said.
The governor said he will announce more openings on April 27 and hinted these could be for places like restaurants and movie theaters. However, he cautioned you will still have to practice social distancing.

My brother is a 'tory'. He's further right than I am and a lifelong Conservative voter. Until recently he was working for Warren Buffet, flying around the world. He's found another job now and is on 'gardening leave'. I asked him why he left, because surely it had to be good working for such a high profile entrepreneur?
He explained that he'd never work with Americans again because, in his words, 'nothing matters to an American like money. They are obsessed by the dollar and it started to make me feel sick how one-dimensional and greedy they were.'
True story, sad to say. And that's what many of you are like. For you, money and economy is EVERYTHING. You have forgotten what matters. Many of you pretend to be devout Christians, but you have forgotten how scathing Christ was towards those who put money on a pedestal.
The truth is, socialism in its purest form doesn't work and capitalism in its purest form doesn't work either, at least not for those born without advantage. The truth, as ever, lies somewhere in between.

Ex-CDC Boss Says 'Things Are Clearly Missing' from White House Guidelines
The physician who led the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention during the 2009 H1N1 "swine flu" epidemic said on Friday the White House's guidelines for when and how governors can begin to relax the social distancing measures meant to "flatten the curve" of new COVID-19 infections are missing a number of things required to prevent new flare-ups.
Dr. Richard Besser, who led the CDC and the U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry over the first six months of the Obama administration, said in an interview with Newsweek that the guidelines unveiled by the White House on Thursday have significant gaps that could render them an ineffective metric for whether states truly have COVID-19 under control.
"There are things in there that are very encouraging in terms of wanting to see downward trends in diseases in excess hospital capacity, but there are things that are clearly missing in there in terms of the need to have widespread testing capability available, the importance of contact tracing the importance of providing resources to individuals, to allow them to isolate or to quarantine," said Besser, who is now President and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
Such an endeavor "requires a lot of resources from the federal government," he continued, adding later that he was "hopeful that our elected officials will do the right thing and provide resources so that everyone has a fair and just opportunity to protect their health."
Besser explained that before states can truly begin to open their economies back up, they need to have resources in place to perform the "bread and butter" contact tracing which public health departments and shoe-leather epidemiology that the nation's public health departments have long excelled at.

Aircraft Carrier Outbreak Spread At First Without Symptoms, Officials Say
A coronavirus outbreak spread through the USS Theodore Roosevelt, the site of the largest outbreak to strike the military, in part through asymptomatic transmission among sailors who unknowingly passed the virus to others, Pentagon officials said Friday.
“We believe it probably passed through the ship quite freely and was initially unrecognized,” the Navy surgeon general, Rear Adm. Bruce Gillingham, said Friday.

I am not wealthy and never have been, in fact I am well below the poverty line. As a whole I don't dislike the wealthy as long as they made their money legally. I am a Christian and have done many good works, but we can't work our way into heaven. It is the love of money that Jesus referred to. I do agree with you that The truth, as ever, lies somewhere in between.
how true...it is the destruction of this country....and getting worse
we were warned a lot several times years ago...…..and we still let it happen
Wealth breeds a class of people for whom human beings are disposable commodities......
Once Oligarchs achieve unchecked economic and political power, as they have in the United States
the citizens to become disposable!
that about sums up where we are today
We must especially beware that small group of selfish men
who would clip the wings of the American eagle
in order to feather their own nests...…….FDR

will occur when government falls into the hands of lending institutions and

A New Report Proves Republican Governed Red States Are Economic Parasites
By now only comatose Americans or fools dependent on Fox News for their information, are aware that states that consistently vote Republican and against their own best interest suck more money from the federal government than Democratic states. It leads one to marvel at the relevance of George Carlin’s saying “never underestimate the power, or danger, of stupid people in large groups.” Residents in red states across the nation are already suffering from Republican policies that are ******* the economic life out of the people, and in most cases the only thing keeping the people, particularly the poor people, from starvation and ill-health is the federal government; the entity they hate with religious fervor and elect Republicans to eviscerate.
Now, yet another report reveals that those same red state Republican voters who want the federal government cut to shreds are leeching substantially more assets from the federal government they want destroyed at the expense of blue states that are supporting them. This time the report is not from a liberal-leaning think tank, or any government agency; it is from a commercial organization with no political or economic stake in the study’s results. If this were the first report of its kind showing red state economies would wither and die, and the people would starve, without leaching federal funding from blue states, one may be inclined to dismiss it as an aberration.
However, study after study has consistently exposed anti-federal government Republican states as being incredibly dependent on the federal government they hate with religious passion and just voted for Republicans to fulfill their wishes and decimate it.
Never, never ever, underestimate the power of stupid Republican voters in red states who are a Presidential veto away from seeing their evil dream reach fruition.
The new report is courtesy of WalletHub; a commercial personal financial web site that rated all 50 states on the basis of their dependence on the federal government to support their economies and keep poor people alive. The report was compiled from data and condensed into “four metrics” not unlike other studies, but without a political motivation for conducting the research. The categories were; the return in federal dollars on taxpayer investment, or how many federal dollars a state receives as opposed to what the residents pay in. The percentage of state revenue from federal funding that keeps the state from declaring bankruptcy and its residents from starving or dying from lack of medical care. The number of non-defense (civilian) federal employees in a state, as opposed to states supported by large military installations. And last, the per capita federal employee rate in the state such as federal marshals, park rangers, federal highway workers, and federal regulators keeping air, water, and food safe.
Obviously, the two most important metrics in the study were the return on taxpayer investment, and the percentage of federal dollars a state depends on to prop up its economy and provide for the people’s general welfare from federal programs. Republican states have benefitted greatly from federal healthcare such as Medicaid, Medicare, and the Affordable Care Act, and it is relatively common knowledge that the largest percentage of SNAP (food stamp) recipients are poor white Republicans in red states; likely because red state legislators enacted Draconian ‘right to work’ laws keeping wages at or below poverty levels. What informs the epic stupidity of red state Republican voters is that they are the morons who consistently send Republicans to Washington to rein in the federal budget and cut the federal government down to size.
True to their word, and according to their base’s wishes, the Republican congressional representatives their mindless supporters just handed control of Congress to just passed a seriously Draconian budget that does precisely what red state voters yearned for; ended “federal interference” in their lives. If the Republican budget stands, red state voters will get their wish and can finally stop bemoaning the horrid ‘federal interference’ in their lives; the interference that kept food on their tables, their families in relatively decent health, and their state economies from going bankrupt. It is likely that the same morons and racists are too stupid to comprehend that the damage their state legislatures have been wreaking on them is about to be magnified a hundred fold due to less federal interference (funding) in their poverty-stricken lives. In fact, it may seem inhumane, but one almost wishes President Obama was not inclined to veto the Republican budget proposals just to let the real Americans, those patriotic “rugged individuals” comprehend just how much worse their pathetic existence would be without the federal government, blue states’ largesse, and humanitarian Democrats unwilling to allow their fellow citizens, no matter how stupid, suffer so the rich get richer.
One also wonders exactly how red state legislatures will fund their wealthy residents’ tax cuts when their already fragile economies’ revenue streams completely dry up due to budget cuts congressional Republicans voted for to ‘balance the budget and rein in the federal government. It is no secret that, for instance, every dollar spent on SNAP (food stamps) returns $1.70 back in red states’ floundering economies that in turn creates jobs. Obviously, Republicans in Congress could not care less that crucial federal dollars keeping their home state economies from disaster is being transferred directly to the wealthy and the military industrial complex instead of sustaining their idiotic constituency. Some of the poorest states, all red states, are dependent on federal funding for 30 to 45% of their total revenue and the GOP’s budget will slash that revenue and make dire revenue shortfalls already decimating red states seem like an economic bonanza.
There is no accounting for stupid people who, as equally stupid Sarah Palin claims, are the real Americans sitting on their porches holding their guns, their god, and their Constitution while supporting Republicans who promised to ravage the federal government they are convinced is stealing their liberty.
It has always been a mystery where those dunces who receive federal assistance in food and healthcare think their government assistance originates. Maybe if they would lose that assistance for a while they would get a clue that the federal
government they sent Republicans to Washington to demolish is all that prevents them from starving, working for a dollar an hour seven days a week, or going without lifesaving medical care, but even that eventuality is debatable.
What is noteworthy is that the blue states that receive 20, 30, or 40 cents in return for every dollar they invest in the federal government are not revolting and threatening to secede. But that is the difference between blue state residents and hateful red state Republicans; they accept that Americans assist their fellow citizens no matter how stupid they are for voting against their own best interests and the federal government that is likely all that stands between their demise and survival. Unfortunately their stupidity is a threat to the rest of the population and it is beginning to appear that they comprehend exactly what they are doing; if that is the case they are not just stupid, they are evil.
