Election Day

 I don't understand how, if voting ends at 8 pm, that media can be reporting who wins by 805 pm.

Political ads

 Are the stupidest things around. Bidens "I'm going to take care of you health care like I do my own family" is a joke. He must not be aware that it was the government that caused people to loose their insurance when they closed everything down. Of course, he is going to get a handle on the virus once he is elected. Guess he must be God or a really great doctor because virus are almost impossible to 'cure'. The placement of commercials is also amusing. You see an ad for a candidate followed by an ad against the candidate then an ad for his opponent and an ad against his opponent. Think it is time to stop running political ads. And while we are at it to stop running ones for medications too.

What do I think of the governments handling of the pandemic?

The feds not much. The state even less. The made rash decisions without any plan as to how they were going to keep people and business afloat while they saved us from the flu. And did I just see a Biden commercial making the pandemic and masks a political issue? I did. Not that we didn't know it already.

What do I think the stimulus package should look like?

Laws protecting hospitals, medical professionals and business from being sued because of anything involving this virus. A tax deduction for workers who stayed on the job throughout the virus. A deduction equal to at least one week of pay per month for each month they stayed on the job. An additional ta credit should be given to companies who gave their employees hazard pay. The least amount of money possible given to each state. Maybe a million dollars and tell them to make it last as long as they can. And the rest of the money budget for this 2 nd stimulus should be divided between each American tax payer, with the same stipulations as the first stimulus. Now this will help business because people will spend this money at them and it will help the states because they will get tax revenue. This could also help ease the need for addition federal unemployment assistance. I know this would never work, way too easy.

Happy Birthday

America. I am sorry you are being bullied into being something that you are not.

What do I think about people tearing down monuments?

People who tear down statues don't change history they just make themselves criminals. You can change your name, change your flag and hid your monuments but you can't change history or hid it. These things should remind you of where you came from and that you don't necessarily want to go back. You also can not change the good that people did in the past no matter how you feel about them now.

What do I think about masks?

Wear them don't wear them. My opinion will not change any one else's opinion. I think masks say that we give government too much control. We need the government to tell us to stay away from each other, to cover our coughs and sneezes because we are too rude to figure it out ourselves. Also, I think they, and this virus, dehumanize us. Too strong? Maybe. We already can't be near each other or touch each other. Now with the masks we can not even smile at each other. We are just masks. Masks offer no connection to another person. So sad.
