    Remember a couple of minutes ago when the world shut down because we were woefully unprepared for a pandemic?

    This is a smart money saving measure, theres no way a pandemic can happen twice.

      To be brutally honest, I’m sure there is a lab somewhere cooking up a new virus that will be even harder to fight off.
      Once the CDC guardrails are completely gone, said virus is ‘accidentally’ released, killing off countless people who are unable to defend against it.

      “We get rid of the sick, old, poor, infirm, or anyone else we don’t want hanging around, that means more money for us!”
