It is another unsolvable problem for now that people seem to think there is a pat answer to.
The government is not our mother. The economy is going to get worse. Save all money you can. And please don't fan around in crowds if you are old.

But, would it have been great if our Government told us all the truth when they knew it ?
Would we not be better off had we known the real facts that our government knew in January, listened to a plan and as a country given it our best shot ?
Would we not be better off had our government not decided early on to allow not only disruption occur, but allow terrible bad information be allowed to come to us ?
Would we not have been better off if instead of flat out lying, our government had been honest with all of us, instead of telling lies about the virus and the future ?
The government is not our mother for sure. Mothers would not lie to their children and would make the children’s protection the number one motivation for everything they do.
Our government did not begin this terrible time, but wasted so much time and actions to keep it quiet. At the beginning, we were short masks, etc., which were shipped to China by American companies with government assistance. Had our government been honest and concerned, would that have happened.
As we now know, our government was advised in January, and knew this virus was dangerous while we unknowingly thought we were safe.
Our country has always been strong enough to fight, but when we are informed and not lied to.
On top of that, our own government established a beach head on masks, insured that sides were taken and citizens split apart on the topic.
I am sorry, but our government was irresponsible with this, and continue to be so.
I will never forget that, and many families who have lost people to the virus, especially early on when we were purposely kept in the dark, will never forget either.
