who other than the president, the most powerful political leader in the country, bears responsibility?
It's called Federalism. We have governors and mayors. Check the numbers.

Why do you think quarantining outdoor interactions forever, is comparable to quarantining for 9-16 months?
No man, we can beat flu, we just haven't really tried. It's like socialism man. It'll work, we just haven't really tried it yet. It's been weak sauce half measures. We need to lock it all down for 2 years straight until all H1N1, Flu, Corona, etc. is extinguished. C'mon man.

Your "ideas" about COVID have been addressed numerous times.

The problem is you thinking your every-man "logic" is a substitute for expertise. I recommend this read: https://www.amazon.com/Death-Experti.../dp/0190469412. It doesn't address COVID specifically, but it points out exactly why how you think is wrong.

And at least you're a seemingly smart guy. Dumb people fall for this shit all the time.

Not to further high-jack, but I shared CDC current best guess estimates of COVID IFR - the actual numbers, not my interpretation - and compared it directly to IFR of flu, also from CDC. Pretty straight forward. No logical leaps there, just apples to apples comparison. If you think there is an error, feel free to respond in that thread.

That's called sarcasm ^

I'm making fun of those who think we are going "beat Corona virus" and that more draconian policies will do it.

Was getting annoyed about the political discussion shitting up this thread until I read this.

+1

*Edit

Something good that happened to me today: I shared a chuckle on a politics-related joke with someone whose politics I disagree with!

I laugh especially hard at the fuckwits driving in their cars...alone...wearing a mask.

Glad to see lots of good things happening in the lives of fellow p99ers!

My mom offered to come over and watch the kids tonight so the wife and I can eat dinner in peace, which is always a treat!
