THIS is what you get when you try to shrink the federal government to something small enough to drown in a bathtub.

about 30% of shoppers were wearing masks. I wish everyone would at least TRY to lower the odds of a higher death count from this virus. They just don't seem to give a damn.

I think it will get worse, too.

I dont watch tv at all, but my guess is a new season of some hugely popular show on Netflix was probably released a few days ago or some really famous Hollywood star is in another scandal. People dont care about the virus anymore.

(3,557 posts)While many Americans arent thinking about it, its getting ready to explode on us.
I predict its going to get really bad in September/October. People are enjoying the nice weather and will continue to get lax on the social distancing. More and more complacency will set in and then itll explode on us much worse this time.
