Something for nothing?

A math mind shares some really useful info on why doing everything now makes more sense than waiting.   Exponential growth refresher may be helpful for some.   Doubling every three days.   (technically,  that's geometric growth,  which is what we bio folk call it when it's a discrete domain with constant intervals)  The feds could use more Jason Warners.

San Diego County is using funds to get homeless and those unable to manage self care into motels which is also offsetting the vacancy spike for those businesses.

Is it Jared or Steven Miller running trump’s “pandemic response team” these days?

Who holds the hand that holds the sharpie?

Trump is the turd in the nation’s bedsheets.

Pence says "the private sector" will provide enough medical equipment
From CNN's Nikki Carvajal

Pence engages in hyperbole, trying to mislead the public about how bad the shortage is:

Vice President Mike Pence stressed “the private sector” will help get more medical supplies to hospitals across the country, but there’s widespread skepticism that will be enough.

“We continue to work with healthcare providers and businesses to identify more supplies, much more importantly across the private sector,” he said.

Companies have now increased “by tens of millions” their production of N95 masks, according to the vice president.

“On the subject of ventilators,” he continued, “we are working with healthcare providers around America and suppliers we literally identified tens of thousands ventilators can be converted to treat patients.”

“We are remaining confident that we'll have the ventilators that we need as the coronavirus makes its way across America,” he assured.
The Department of Homeland Security estimates that should the virus become "very severe" 38 million people will need medical care, and 9.6 million people will need hospitalization. Of those, an estimated 2.9 million people will need to be admitted to intensive care units, easily overwhelming the nation's current capacity.

We're banding together for the good of the nation, while the conman you admire so much are continuing to try to destroy the country and you are slavishly enamored of every step he takes and each lie he tells.

In the "too little, too late" department comes Florida's governor:

"Spring Break's done," says Florida's governor
From CNN's Denise Royal & Chris O'Meara/AP

This comes a day after DeSantis said:
“We’ve seen some big crowds on the west coast of Florida and I’ve had a chance to speak to mayors on both coast today,” DeSantis also said, according to a local NBC affiliate. “If … they want to continue to [leave the beach open], we want them to have the freedom to do that, but we also want them to have the freedom to do more if they see fit.”

But here he is, the next day, after he finally understood that it was a serious problem that he needed to address.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said he issued an order Thursday morning to limit gatherings on beaches to no more than 10.

"So what you've see now is a lot of the sheriff's departments have instituted protocols … Cocoa Beach, major spring break destination went down 70% since my order. And so, I think that's a more prudent approach to do social distancing," the Republican governor said.

The governor also wants Spring Break vacationers to know that the party is over.

“Since I issued my directive, anybody who's put that in place, spring break’s done. Any place to go for bars and all this done. They don't have a place to go.”

DeSantis added that he spoke to the US surgeon general recently about social distancing. He doesn’t want people living in the Sunshine State to stay inside all day if they feel fine.

“They [medical experts] want you to social distance, of course, but they actually encourage people to get fresh air. They just don't want you congregating in big groups. And so, if you have a Floridian that, you know, goes walks their dogs like a married couple on the beach, as long as you're not within six feet of each other, they view that. And, you know, that's a healthy thing. And so, I think it's important to allow that if the local communities want to do it, to be to be able to do it," he said.

Please - join the masses in banding together.  Your time is not being used wisely.

The masses are banding together to replace the corrupt incompetent officials handling affairs with more honest, honorable, and capable leadership beginning with the President and Senators and carrying right on down to County sheriff and DA.

Esper threw trump under the bus on news hour & now tiny sharpie finger is trying to grab any idea that polled well in the Democratic debates and throw it at the problem. These are the best ideas anyone has. They’ll be effective except where Moscow Mitch uses his legislative leverage and sheer inhumanity to vulture them up for his sponsors. At least the loser is now frightened enough to allow himself to be led - at least for the moment.

The cost will come clear as will the mechanics of the failures.

My community will always be banded together as long as fascists, proto-fascists, and fascist wannabes anywhere hold power.

Be safe. Stay off Fox. It will get you self harming much much more than you realize. It already has.

Stay safe

I used the phrase, this time, but you have used it plenty of times, I am sure.

No need to defend me from you, Ward.

Or, as you would put it, "I notice nobody on here comes to your defense," EVER.

But you still are pretending not to understand what "something for nothing" means and it's hilarious.
