My use of the word "amazing" was used in the least "surprised" form possible. Link to comment

That can be distinguished from responsible businesses that are in dire need of help due to no fault of their own. 3 Link to comment

But most owners do all they can to make themselves money, run a great business and give people jobs. Not the other way around. Business owners take on more responsibility then most can understand. 2 Link to comment

TGHusker Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Coronavirus Truthers https://www.yahoo.com/news/coronavirus-truthers-prey-on-the-anxiety-of-the-moment-185549280.html Quote “People should ask themselves whether this coronavirus ‘pandemic’ could be a big hoax, with the actual danger of the disease massively exaggerated by those who seek to profit — financially or politically — from the ensuing panic,” former Rep. Ron Paul wrote on his website Monday. The former Republican presidential candidate, a physician and the father of Sen. Rand Paul, described Dr. Anthony Fauci, the leading scientific voice on President Trump’s coronavirus task force, as one of many government “fearmongers” who were part of a plan to institute martial law and permanently strip Americans of their rights. 1 Link to comment
TGHusker Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Or you can blame the left leaning mainstream media Why is the GOP so full of people that are so nutso? To think I wanted Newt to run for president in 2008. Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 WOW...I really don't know that much about Governor Cuomo. But, just listening to him talk right now is fantastic. He's basically talking about all the closings the state of NY is doing. He flat out spent a few minutes doing nothing but saying, if you are upset about any of the closings, it's NOT the local mayor's fault, it's not the local school districts fault, it's not the local law enforcement's fault...etc. He flat out said, "It's MY fault. I"M the one that closed them. If you are mad at anyone, you need to be mad at ME". Now, it's stupid for anyone to be upset about the closings. BUT....isn't that a refreshing thing too hear. Someone at the top, basically saying..."the buck stops here!!!" 2 Link to comment
