Not everything needs to be a good thing or a bad thing. Many things just are. This is how we get to the politicization of everything - we ask if our side likes it or not before we decide if it is true or not. |

True. That's why I asked, and by extension, what is the point of this thread? Loss of life is a tragedy. |

Like all of the science they lied to you about, and you were foolish enough to believe? |

It’s definitely a bad thing for the one-million plus people who succumbed to early deaths. |

| I still don’t know anyone that died from COVID. And I’m in MAGA state - guess I don’t know enough old people. |

Not enough MAGA died of covid, IMO. But there is still hope! Covid is still killing, mostly elderly unvaccinated, and whooping cough, flu, and RSV are having their time in the sun this winter due to low vaccine rates. The ERs are absolutely overflowing.
I’m more concerned about the younger ones. MAGA was never really concerned about its ability to convert more people to the cult after they took over the social media platforms. More and more stupid is being born every day to replace the stupid that dies. A strong evolutionary correction is going to be needed to reduce the stupid population. The news out of Texas suggests measles seems ready and willing to do its part. |

I don’t think that true. Maybe the magas died in higher numbers after the vaccine, but that’s 2021. In the early days, the people dying were the blue collar workers who interacted with the public, such as your nurses, bus drivers, grocery store clerks, etc. also, it was reported that Hispanics and Blacks were disproportionately impacted by Covid deaths. |

Yep. Won't surprise me if the State Dept buys more Teslas with our money. |

I remember seeing stories of people dying from COVID who said they didn't think it was real. They didn't take precautions and believed what random people on TV said, and now they are dead. |

There are also people who died from other issues caused by COVID. For example, I got pneumonia after COVID and almost died. If I had died when I was in the hospital, pneumonia would have been listed as my cause of death -- not the COVID that caused the pneumonia. |

Social Security can’t pay in full by 2037.
I don’t think congress is going to do anything. So payment will be cut by 25%. |

They will increase the eligibility age and they will increase the SS wage cap. |

I thought this was widely known?
The Republicans killed so many old people with COVID that it really improve the financial health of the Social Security program. |
