To compare the U.S. with the liberties of other countries prior to the Pandemic... I've lived in 5 different countries and currently hold residences in 3 countries. Here's my list of these particular countries with the best liberties (top best...bottom least): 1) Canada 2) France 3) U.S. 4) South Korea I have paid taxes in three of the above countries and own homes in three of the above. Travel frequently between three of the above (obviously no longer able to do such during the current Pandemic). I saw more sick people allowed to board planes at the airports in the U.S. then any other country prior to the shut downs. I'm talking about people that were visually obviously very ill...allowed to board a plane with NO medical masks...their liberties protected and intact. You can call me a leftist anti-american for ranking the U.S. 3rd on my list and the ranking remains the same during the current Pandemic as restrictions are imposed on its population by all countries. On a side note, only a U.S. has been releasing non-violent prisoners early from prison due to the spread of Coronavirus in prison. In contrast, France and Canada have not done such that I know about but they are considering to do the same if Coronavirus continues to spread within the prison system (prisoners and guards). P.S. I've never been to Sweden but know a few from Sweden. They state they have more liberties than the U.S. prior and currently during the Pandemic. wrbtrader
https://www.yahoo.com/news/virus-deaths-rise-sweden-sticks-073757331.html From yesterday, interesting article, also gives the opinion of an official in Denmark, they don t know either how relaxing lockdown will work out, and whether the Swedish or its neighbour's way will end up best. In term of respect of individual freedom, Sweden is winning handily though.
CNN's got a video, deaths slightly higher than US like 1 in 100,000 higher, Italy 4x's higher. Sweden started 3rd March, US 10thMarch so another week. They also say, there way is sustainable even if it takes years and doing very little damage, as aposed to max damage and not sustainable at all. Sweden, the only none snowflake country, we thank you for showing the rest of the world the way.
The same blank here. Anyway, I feel for the elderly there who were doing "the right thing" all there lives, paid the humongous taxes only to be screwed when they need the help. And folks still believe that their governments are there for them
Yeah, he knows that already...I told him the same awhile back but the reason for me was my browser does not allow certain links or embedded media to show. wrbtrader
Was supposed to be the CNN Video link, then I went out for a bike ride, enjoying the 6 cars all night, 40 mile road ride, I kinda like the lockdowns, it's peaceful like 95% of the population vanished As I make my living off day trading, doesn't really bother me financially atleast.
The Elderly aren't being screwed over, they've been asked to ( not told ) to self Isolate then when everyone else has had and is immune they can come out, only a few weeks time doing it this way, lockdowns make it months, so less time before they can get back to there lives. All covered in the CNN Video, there doing Exactly my plan, lock away the at risk and let it get caught by everyone else. I'd make it law for everyone not high risk to attend a mass orgy mind, get it over with in 4weeks, job done!!
