You really don’t make sense here.

i got it. Fairly cerebral and a juxtaposition. Well written.

If you’re that cerebral then you also understand the subtlety of my remark.

COVID-19 was #2 killer in the USA in the past week, falling just behind Heart Disease 12,392 to 12,626. It's expected to become the #1 killer soon.

I can see why a "paper" owned by Jeff Bezos, the now richest man in the world, would report such nonsense.
He has profited off this garbage and has increased his net worth by 24 BILLION..
Amazon is now worth 1.1 trillion.
But hey lets keep clicking and locking down.

You get my point? If you still don’t grasp the hyperbole, I have neither the patience nor the crayons to go into further discussion to explain it to you.


Also, a round of applause for going on a diatribe about WaPo being owned by a billionaire, then posting a link to a right wing British tabloid owned by another billionaire...

Not to be too contradictory here, but, what major news outlet isn't owned by billionaires?

Not many sources are not somehow owned by billionaires, either directly or indirectly through a corporation. However, arguing that factual journalistic integrity is skewed because of who owns it has no purpose. In today’s political landscape, CNN could report that water is wet and it is sunny outside and people would call it fake news.

Here is a chart to consider when you read your sources:

npr, pbs....

First, Bezos treats his Amazon employees poorly. Pay is market rate or better but work conditions are very harsh. He makes Frank Lorenzo look like a people oriented CEO. So we generally agree there. Online sales went up 250% after the lockdowns started. For some businesses this virus has led to windfall profits.

As fas as the number of deaths being reported, do you think those number are fake? New York state is losing 600-800 per day although it is trending down finally. The Post didn't just make up those numbers, they come from various official sources.

They can't totally reopen the economy without 10's of millions of the new fast COVID-19 test from Abbott Labs and also the tests that show if you have the antibodies to COVID-19.

Maybe they need to give "I beat Corona Virus" or "Corona Virus Survivor" T-Shirts to those who have the antibodies and now test negative. They could then be allowed to work in high virus risk areas.
