I'm not attacking your mother and her experiences in any way, I'm sorry if you felt that way. I'm simply giving my opinion based on what was in the WHO article you posted

I understand you aren’t required, but it should be

My mother caught it

All it takes is one small mistake and you get covid.

And i know you arent attacking my mother

N95 masks are reserved for cases where they are needed, like dealing with people who have contracted TB so the supply is reserved for them first.

Yes i get there arent enough of them i said thats why they cant be required- cost and availability

I don't make the rules in my hospital

But they should be, it sucks

@Mystika do you know organic chem?

A little, but not in its entirety

I work in the chemotherapy clinic, so I know more about cancer drugs than most other meds

vbonecrusher you do realize that foreign entities buy us debt- right now almost half of it right? The ceiling that the US can spend is based on the reputation the dollar has like you say, yet when spending greatly exceeds GDP this leads to fragility of the dollar. Money is not unrelated to resources. Peter Schiff talks a lot about the fagility of the dollar in this context.

https://schiffgold.com/key-gold-news/yale-economist-warns-of-dollar-crash/

The more you spend with a disproportionate GDP the more dependent you become on foreign standing of the currency. The US could easily lose its comfort of reserve currency and at that point- yes- the US can go bankrupt not just the states.

So yes taxes are needed to fund government spending, you cant just keep outsourcing the resources backing the dollar and expect is to retain its reputation. When countries lose faith in the dollar and it no longer has reserve currency that debt will have devastating consequences to trade.

I get these wall street guys wolf richter and peter schiff are probably the exact people you have problems with, but I think they’re valid points.

Woah

I am im bed

Ping me next time

@Arnold Jacobs is legend LOL PETTER SCHIFF

NO WAY

im sorry

i cant

lol

Haha

lol

petter fucking schiif

he got wrecked in 2008 by shorting the dollar

I knew that would trigger you

ya hes a fucking moron and should not be allowed ot talk

to

he has no idea how our monetary system works

thats why he moved to pr

Theyre valid points though the us is heavily dependent on international trade

he lost his clients millions shorting the dollar

For example the manufacturing base is 40% reliant on foreign material

like 30 percent of debt is owned by other countries this does matter. And no the us cannot go bankrupt we issue our own currency

No its 40%

The us can go bank rupt when it is unable to produce goods and services

Youre playing very loosely with the term bankrupt

@Arnold Jacobs is legend bankrupt is in a state of not having money, the us has unlimited money, im reffering to a situation like greece
