I graduated college despite historical oppression and system racism. My access to capital is due to the color of my skin.

There are several MSM sites reporting the death toll of US corona victims and they hover around 500 total at the moment. Note that they're very liberally grouping deaths into the corona bucket so I expect the number to be much lower in a post mortem. It's going to be like Trump's 2016 win where everyone was left scratching their heads and wondering how their math/fake science failed them.
My flu death rate of 200/day comes from the CDC's last year figure of 34000 / 6 months (a really stretched flu season).
The paper I posted was from the international journal of infectious diseases and you give me a site with shaolin monks doing kata as a header.
~500 total. Still a far cry from business as usual flu @ 200/day.
Can we trust Italy's numbers? They're attributing any questionable death to corona to hide their embarrassing influenza death rate. This can almost explain USA's minuscule death toll at 500 (influenza season averages 200/day).
Guarantee you deaths will be less than swine flu deaths. But you will just say it's because of our amazing response, the same response being treated by MSM as inadequate. Just remember it was the Democrats/MSM willing to go scorched earth on the economy to push this pandemic narrative.
It is dumb. In the USA Corona deaths @ 150 so far while flu deaths @ 34K/year. Even Swine Flu had 4K deaths and MSM didn't bat an eye. Italy proving single payer socialized medicine has less talented clinicians and administration.
Lots of misinformation in this thread. I host economical listings on airbnb and have had over 300 stays in the last 2 years and get plenty of bad reviews. Half of my guests are repeats who are just there for work and don't bother to review. The other half will leave 2, 3, 4 stars largely because they're not used to being around hispanics and blacks, which triggers airbnb to threaten me with being delisted, which would screw over my returning guests who are happy with the value. I price my listing at the bottom 25% median and clearly state that the neighborhood is multiculturally and socioeconomically diverse. It is a tremendous value for the area but there will always be guests with 5 star tastes and 1 star budget.

Millennials just slurp in this fake news and get high off it.
Anyone who has a run a small business knows how hard it is to turn 50c to $1, and how easy it is for the democrats/socialists to take it away.
100%. The safest cities in America have the least gun control. Maine passed constitutional carry 5 years ago with much resistance and last year was voted the safest place to live in America. Meanwhile cities like Chicago with the strictest laws are murder capitals. Liberals then say but the guns are coming from X, Y, Z! Well why aren't X, Y, Z murder capitals? Let's deal with the root of the problem and clearly it's not guns/the symptom.
Public housing is a complete failure and the epicenter of violence in every city. Name a current project in ANY big city you'd raise your family in?
It doesn't help when there are insane regulations like dedicating double digit percentage of new units to be "affordable"/subsidized/section 8. Anyone with a full time minimum wage job would not qualify for "affordable" housing, you literally have to not work at all, it's such a scam.
SF and NYC in a nutshell: High taxes to fund entitlement programs like "affordable housing" and the homeless industrious complex, high regulations that only allow mega corps to succeed, landlord unfriendly laws so no chances taken on good borderline tenants, and no firearms for law abiding citizens so criminals are emboldened.
Hello Californians, welcome to Texas! Please don't vote for the same policies that caused you to flee your state.
Good, former EMT and Paramedic for busy metropolitan city here. Your exorbitant costs are subsidizing the homeless, system abusers, and illegals who can't be billed. 90% of the calls we were dispatched to were not acute emergencies. And 90% of those calls were people of the lower socioeconomic demographic systematically abusing medicaid.
