Just a quick update on my daughter. Saturday was a really tough day, she was a little furnace and really felt terrible. Yesterday her fever broke and she actually ate something. This morning she woke

It is sort of real, there is not a shortage of animals to be slaughtered. The issue is many processing plants are closed due to outbreaks. The ones that are not closed are running at half capacity due to social distancing practices. I see these issues every day at work. I will say I have been able to keep most clients supplied. The issue is not just meat but most fresh food items. People do not need to panic as product is a available.

Plus I hate to say this but this ur for those of us on this forum this will not be a issue. Most of us have meat in the freezer and are fully capable of getting needed protein if it came to it

Our plant is down 26 employees and we had to suspend production of several items to meet demand for our top sellers. We were down 52, got 26
back last week when one of the leave acts expired. We haven’t had a Covid positive yet. Our product is is an inexpensive pasteurized protein, the sales have been astronomical the past 8 weeks

I don't have much to say other than putting Rattler's name up for nomination for the Papist Memorial Award for forum BS.  :)

I see the self ordained forum content censors are triggered again.  Can't put anything on here they don't agree with I guess, especially when they aren't capable of any intelligent counter point.  It's an old Marxist tactic to control the narrative.

It's one thing to make a point or to give your opinion.  It's another when you keep repeating the same crap over and over and over again.  That's why you get the nod for the Papist Memorial award.

Crap?  If you think these issues are crap, you are part of the problem.

Motion to change the name of the Politics sub forum to "The Whine Cellar"...can I get a 2nd?

Just noting, this does not pertain to the real issues surrounding people personally affected by COVID-19, which are not in any way political.

I still cannot understand why you guys visit this forum when you have noting to contribute to it.  You are the whiners.  Why would anyone go anywhere they didn't agree with the conversations, unless of course the intent is to put an end to it because they don't want opposing opinion to possibly sway the onlookers.  Like I said, it's an old Marxist tactic.

Come on Rattler, I was being sarcastic.

Rattler, if you can't deal with ever having forum members who don't agree with your point of view, maybe it is you who should go elsewhere.  It's always the same routine with you- you post your propaganda and then attack anyone who disagrees with it- calling them leftist, socialist, Marxist, or whateverelse-ist.  There are many differing opinions and points of view on this forum.  If that bothers you so much, why are you constantly trolling for responses- are you just looking for 'likes' from other members who agree?  If that's all you're looking for, why not just post on any of those wingnut sites where you get all your 'information' and memes?

I don't attack people who don't agree with my posts.  I debate them.  I just don't tolerate insults from people who refuse to debate.  I call them as I see them.  I post what I think people need to be aware of.  I just don't tolerate people who want to squash the message, because it seems like they don't want anyone else to see it.  

If someone can't debate the ideas in a post, they should just ignore it.  Too many feel if they can't intelligently debate, they should attack the messenger.  This is what I see leftists do all the time.  This is why I use terms like you mentioned, because the shoe fits.  And I don't call them those things, I call their ideology those things.

I don't care if people have other opinions and I don't try to tell them they can't, nor do I try to prevent them from posting those opinions.  I debate them.  I'm willing to state the fallacies I see in their views.  I'm not saying I couldn't be wrong.  I'm saying, prove me wrong.

It's not that I can't deal with people who don't agree with me, it's that people who don't agree with me can't deal with it.

To put it in simple terms, let me post this for those who won't read more than ten words in a post.

So as a human being and a American there is no way you can possibly justify this. I think we all agree the sanctuary policies are really wrong and messed up.

However the administration using the pandemic to push its political agenda is wrong. NY contributed more money to the fed than almost any other state and to try and Tit for tat with corona virus relief is insane and UN American

NY is using the pandemic to ask all the rest of the country to bail it out after years of financial irresponsibility and wasting tax dollars to buy votes from special interests.  NY has been bankrupt for years now.  The pandemic didn't put it there.  And it's not asking just for money to pay the extra expenses it incurred for the pandemic.  It's asking for a bailout to avoid total bankruptcy, which has been inevitable for at least a year now.

Trump is using NY's desperate need for cash to try and get the state to eliminate it's unamerican illegal protections of illegal aliens.  That is also wrong.  He should be telling NY the rest of the nation is not going to bail it out of it's self inflicted bankruptcy, regardless of the pandemic's contribution to it. 

If we do it for NY, we must do it for every state that has put itself in a pending bankruptcy condition, of which there are many, which would only further encourage more irresponsible spending by those states.  That would mean higher taxes on every citizen of the nation in the future too.  FUAC!

BTW, NY state didn't contribute more money to the FED than anyone else, it's rich taxpayers did. The money you are referring to was individual tax payments from individuals, not NY state.

So what about the 160 billion dollars a year that NY puts into the federal government. Compared to other states that take out close to that number. NY and other large states have footed the bill for others for years
