  Economic Recovery after COVID-19

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  it feels like we've really turned a corner, this morning especially.. the covid lockdowns are ending and medical systems were not overwhelmed plus there are existing treatments that have been proven to be effective (like hydroxychloroquine) and new vaccines and medicines in the pipeline.

  a week or so ago the dems were dead against opening things up but since they are encouraging protests (which often turn violent) they can't continue that stance - thus proving trumps claim that it will soon be gone.

  the majority of the deaths were politician-assisted (which i hope people are prosecuted for) so it's not the big risk we were led to believe and (over) reacted to.. the bls reported this morning that the us economy just added a huge number of jobs (most on record) and will undoubtedly benefit even more from a drive to source local production and supply chains going forwards.

  Simon,

  ''How can anyone continue with lockdowns after the medical people telling us we had to lock down are now saying "sure, protesting in crowds is good". They have zero credibility, their models were wrong and they are demonstrating that they are incompetent political activists more than they are medical people giving out scientific advice.''

  Which medical people are saying 'sure, protesting in crowds is good'? Is that in Canada? I don't think they are saying that here in the UK, quite the opposite I think. But if you could show where and who that would be good.

  ''The new arrangement also means that your congregation would no longer own its Kingdom Hall. Each congregation that agrees to the proposal would donate its funds and any property it owns, to KHT. KHT would then have an obligation to ensure that Kingdom Halls continue to be available for your worship.''

  An obligation to ensure that Kingdom Halls [but not necessarily the one you used to own because we've just sold it] continue to be available for your worship. [your new nearest Hall is now 50 miles away]

  ''We are now proposing that congregations throughout our branch territory be dissolved as charities and merge with a legal entity called The Kingdom Hall Trust, hereafter referred to as ‘KHT’. KHT is an incorporated charity that has been used for many years to hold title to Kingdom Halls.''

  Anonymous, 152 UK police officers died in the line of duty in 2019? I never knew that. Compared to 158 in the USA?

  Where did you get that information from as the link you supplied doesn't agree with that .

  I thought it was 1 in the U.K.

  ''If you are elderly, stay home. If you are sick, stay home. If you have a preexisting condition that that would make you more susceptible to COVID-19, stay home.''

  Would it have been better if that had been the worldwide message and policy all along from day 1?
