[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it lost on the people in this thread that the NY case doesn’t seem to be travel related at all? That’s why I am not stopping traveling. [/quote]

[b]And it seems to be lost on you that travel is how this thing has made it to nearly 90 countries worldwide[/b]. [/quote]

But lots of people who stayed put got it too! [/quote]

Thanks to travelers who can’t stay put. Just travelers from or to Italy exported Coronavirus to some 40 countries.

This needs to be repeated.. repeatedly.

But what's your point? You want to shut down all air travel now? Then say that. No need to throw blame around.

Blame? These are facts.

Since it needs to be more clear out for you:

* All unnecessary travel is short sighted/foolish/egocentric and puts individuals, communities, states, and countries at risk.*[/quote]

Okay great. Then have these big rich corporations GIVE US OUR MONEY BACK. We'll wait. [/quote]

Has anyone considered the consequences of statements like this - that everybody simply cancel all plans until further notice? Do you know the impact that would have on people? And I don't mean the airline or Disney or the corporation issuing the refund... I mean you, and me, and the majority of Americans. Because let's say people stop travelling and going to the movies and going to shows and going to restaurants... do you know what happens eventually? Those companies lose money and do you think they're going to pony up from the CEO's pockets to make up the difference? No. They're going to fire people. And do you think the government, with it's deficit in the trillions, can step in and make up the difference? Sure, but what are they going to cut in order to do that?

**You are not wrong in saying that travel is a huge factor and shouldn't be taken lightly, but NEITHER should what you are saying. The economy IS a big deal to EVERYONE, not just for a politician trying to get reelected. Wanna know why it's important for reelection? BECAUSE THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR FOR VOTERS. [/quote]
