I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

That can also be flipped.  The big man tried that. When? Unified? 

We’re getting too political. You’re answer tell me a lot about you. That begs the question. Just prior to the bug we’re you better off in the last 3 years? If not that’s on you. Political discussion on my end over.

If we started a thread on that I'd surprise you.

Funny.  My son said the same thing, he drives a 26 footer.

Saw multiple people running stop signs and yield signs the last few days, the "gun it and run it" types, I have had to stop in the right of way a few times to avoid a wreck in my work truck. Today I was thinking "What's with all the idiots lately......oh yeah"

Seems the stay at home order isn’t working in New York as planned. It’s being reported that 66 percent of new cases are from older people who stayed at home. As contagious as it is it’s going to find you. Just like a virus does or the flu. Of course you can lessen the odds. The general every one stay at home. Isn’t all that.

I watched It this morning, I saved it on my phone because I knew it would get taken down quickly. Anybody that want's to know what's really going on here should watch this.

On another note, are dictator governor has opened up residential and commercial construction as of tomorrow. I said screw it and went back to work Monday. I'm a concrete contractor and here in Michigan we have a  short enough season as it is. No point in making it any shorter, I've already lost a month of income.

That's the guy that was giving his married girlfriend the high-hard-one while he was telling everyone else to stay home. Was ok for him or his girlfriend to travel for their 10 toes up, 10 toes down dickin' sessions. Plus at one point he was infected with C-19 himself

I've seen them in action many times in my work place, I personally think they are overpaid idiots for the most part.

Newton was an idiot when it came to gravity. Euclid knew nothing about geometry. Edison didn't know his light bulb from a tulip bulb. Einstein knew nothing about relative motion and James Watt was stupid about power measurement. 

 

But hey who am I to say you're not the next Steve Hawking. Your thinking is in the same league. :wtf: Right?

Every piece of information that does not support your belief you discredit. Every piece of information that supports your belief you support as valid. So...what your saying is only you know when a source is truthful and when it is not. That's absolutely  condescending. Must be the PC method of calling people stupid. I see how this is played now. You can't say the words but you can imply them. 

 

Inform please. Who's numbers can be trusted. Don't you dare say NO ONE. Your belief is based on SOMEONE.

It’s seems as reported on Tucker Carlson. That Sweden Model worked. He had the ambassador on his show. Maybe it couldn’t work for use in all of the United States. Maybe just in most places. With travel restrictions in the most effective areas. Seems the WHO suggested the same. Someone recently said I just pick the information I agree with. Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. In reality it’s the information that’s seems reasonable. China released a bug on us. The cure our government imposed on us is going to cause more damage I’m afraid. Someone once said the governor had it down in New York. There’s a few nursing homes that may disagree with that one. Jobless reports come out in a few hours. Not good.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      That sir is a choice. And even if it were not for all the reasons stated, this disruption has zero to do with the reality of the actual logistics and everything to do with the greed of SPECULATION. Spot price is irrelevant to reality.

      Gas Prices

      What I think you're saying is there is supply here at home, and in Venezuela, and we could ease pricing if only it were favorable to do so.   Well, yes?   But that's not the current market. Supply isn't what could someday exist, if only, it's what producers are willing to produce and sell at a certain price point.   The national price of single family homes would come way down if we'd just slap together a few million homes this summer.   RAM and GPUs would get a lot cheaper if we just set up some factories to produce a bunch more and stopped using it to build out AI data centers.

      The turn signal/multifunction switch is faulty.  I've seen a few of these go bad at work.

      Gas Prices

      If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....
