Just how many threads do you need to spew your noxious thought bubbles?

All day, every day.

I sear, you're loving this. All of this attention and a captive audience.

At least he's thinking Mothra, rather than mindlessly criticising.

Yes Mothra. Build bridge and let NorthofNorth go. Bojack is more up your alley.

I know you think this is thought. You've built a forum on it.

It's not. Just so you know.

SO,

With our governments shutting down our ability to work, and putting us out of work, and into financial collapse... they ARE also killing people.. albeit indirectly, they are still responsible as they are "knowingly" making these insane policies..

Not sure who you've been listening to, but you're still allowed to go to work.

Well, if you had a job you could.

so said the mayor of New York.

"you cant put a price on a human life".

thats actually not true.
we do it all the time.

we drive at 60kph in the city, 100 kph on thehighways.

if we reduced that to 30 kph in the city and 50 kph on the highway , we would reduce the loss of human life.

no one can argue with that.

and the economy would still work if wee drove at that speed.
sure it would be "annoying".

but people not wanting to be "annoyed " is paid for in blood.

so, at some stage , we will have to do the same with covid.

we will have to weigh up people being annoyed with
"the price of a human life"

We just don't like to speak about it in explicit terms.

Excellent example. If no price could be put on a human life, we'd legislate that every road would be built to a standard where an fatal accident would be impossible. Every car would be engineered to a standard that would make them safe, but cost a million dollars and the speed limit would be 10kph.

There's a possibility some countries may eradicate 'Rona but most will have to lift their lock downs when the equation of lettings humans flourish with minimal fatalities hits a sweet spot.

Saying there is no price on human life is just a comforting thing your mum says when you're 5 years old.

i think all parents face this when their kids turn 17.

does the kid save up for an old bomber or do you buy a car with good safety features.

Yes, that's true...

It's the 'one life is a tragedy, one million is a statistic' thing...

We're hard-wired to be capable of empathising and sympathising with a few... Anymore than that is a blur.

To a narcissist.

Trying to bait NorthofNorth like a scorned lover, eh Mothra? Grin

I post rarely.Once, maybe twice a week. It's been particularly embarrassing for you, i would think, over the Covid scare. Some seriously dodgy stuff is posted at your whim.,

But as to my question. Yes or no?

no...

He's an absolute liar....

They are now paying Hospitals in extra 15% per death per COVID19 deaths...

So NY went back and did a recount of deaths and found another 3700 people and changed their death certificates to say that their death was caused by COVID19...

Only a Democrat could sink so low...
