YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID
A few notes about our current state of life
1.) We are faced with a DEADLY threat. The covid-19 virus has a good chance of killing all of mankind.
We have no vacine as of now. We hope we can find one, but it is not a sure thing.
We are betting our very lives that we find one. a BIG bet indead. Win or die.

2.)We are fighting the wrong battles at the moment. Forget about what the Fed's are doing about the economy for now.
If we don't find the vacine money we be worth zip, we well all be DEAD.
3.)We can't go back to what life was. Too many things have changed.
We need to decide what we really value in life.
Ask yourr self what is money? It used to be a tool for us to use. Now it has become
the master that rules our lives and we need to put it back in it's place as a tool not as a ruler.
Making money for the sake of money is wrong.
If the money goes away we still have the real value of the tangable items, i.e.
If you had an airline lets say. If you remove all the money changer at the top what do you have?
You have the airplanes, hangers, pilots, etc. the true value is the same. replace the alphabit soup on top and away you go.
same with any corparation or business.

Bottom line we can rebuild it and do it better.

The only battles we should fight at this point are:
1.) Get a reliable test. Test everybody once a week if need till we get a true picture of how it
is transmited and develope a protacal to lower the that rate.
2.)Develope a treatment protacal to treat people that get it, save as many as we can. (screw the it's mine attitude.)
3.)FIND THE VACINE WITHOUT IT WE ARE ALL DEAD.
4.Rebuild our daily lives, hopefully we do a better job this time.

Put the rest on hold for now, it well be there when we get to it if we win the real war.
The only way to do that is to only fight the needed battles we have limited time and limited resources so
best not waste anything.

Mike
Stay safe
