Statistics show that as unemployment rises, so does suicide by %

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.

40,000 in the airline industry lost their jobs over night...

restaurants and cafe's have mainly shut with thousands and thousands out of jobs etc etc etc..

They'd most likely like to smash people like you square in the face...

No.

Normal people don't go around smashing other people in the face.

It's usually sociopaths, or deeply disturbed individuals with other mental health problems.

You know, people like you.

If you can't be a good example, you have to be a horrible warning.

His first reaction to anything he doesn't like, is violence.

Quite disturbing.

N.Y.C. Death Toll Soars Past 10,000 in Revised Virus Count

The city has added more than 3,700 additional people who were presumed to have died of the coronavirus but had never tested positive.

New York City, already a world epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, sharply increased its death toll by more than 3,700 victims on Tuesday, after officials said they were now including people who had never tested positive for the virus but were presumed to have died of it.. Cheesy

Well, yes, one was already mentioned... Speed limits...

The banning of swimming at beaches because one death from shark attack is too much...

Banning washing the windows of high rises because one high-rise window washer's death is unendurable...

Banning bathrooms because wet floors can cause slippage and the victim can be killed when he/she hits their head on a tap...

Handing down jail terms for jay walkers to deter people from jay walking because it might encourage others who might be killed because they jay walked under a bus...

Banning shoe laces because it they come undone while you're walking you might slip over and hit head on the pavement, suffer a brain hemorrhage, spend 3 weeks in a coma then die...

Banning... Ahh, bugger it... I'm getting exhausted thinking of 50 ways to save your brother...

I can think of hundreds od examples where risk at a lower price is tolerated when it could be eliminated with $ but I cant think of one which goes the othet way

Anyone?
