    Plantation Owner always came out on top.

    That is quite insightful. And correct.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    That's why they want schools open...so parents can go back to work in the office and stave off the inevitable commercial real estate collapse.

    CEO Ed Bastian, along with the company's chief health officer and a medical adviser, asked in a letter to CDC Director Rochelle Walensky seen by Reuters that the agency's recommended quarantine period for anyone who tests positive with a breakthrough COVID-19 infection be reduced to five days from the current 10.

    Yea, sure... Like past general strikes did that.

    The railway strike of 1886 didn't
    The Pullman strike of 1894 didn't
    The coal strike of 1902 didn't
    The steel strike of 1919 didn't
    The railway strike of 1922 didn't
    The UAW strike of 1946 didn't
    The steel strike of 1952 didn't

    You get the idea. Today there are fewer union members than ever and unions have far less power than they previously did. How the hell are they going to manage to do anything useful towards a general strike?

    I have a feeling that our girl LV has been on a general strike most if not all of her life when it comes to WORK. Welfare losers like her generally want others to follow suit so they dont look so out of place and pathetic when stacked up against the industrious. Wont work LV,....you cant hide your parasitic sloth lifestyle.

    why? because you have to be an idiot to not get ahead when all the rules benefit America at the expense of the rest of the world.

    yet here you are. a loser - needing big changes because you can't find a way to succeed. fucking pathetic
    Lousy Vermin has come back even crazier than before, not even I thought that possible. She's a fucking lunatic without any doubt.

    You have to have a job and be in a union to go on strike, two things LV has never done...

    Agree that major players had a lot to do with the new guidelines. Probably in the timing of the rollout more than the policy in general.

    It HAS been two years now. In the beginning they erred on the side of caution based on semi informed guesswork. I'm thinking that they've been doing studies during the slow moments of the pandemic. Testing is probably better, and everyone is under pressure to keep the economy moving. If there were a modicum of cooperation in this nation, we'd probably have a moving economy AND lower Covid numbers.

    I'll bet that studies show 5 days to be safe enough. AND...millions of people simply weren't reporting mild cold symptoms for fear of losing 10 days of work.

    If they went unmasked, they're assholes. Perhaps 5 days is easier to swallow for both sides. As long as it's safe.

    The worker drones keep the meat moving in this country. When Covid was killing them, it upset the entire apple cart. If we are to believe the 4 corporations that produce most of the meat, we could use a few thousand of the above referenced imports.
