There’s a difference?

Given the user icon, perhaps car repairs is a sore point? :) 

If you really want to be accurate then the proper name to use in this article is SARS-COV-2. That is the name of the virus these tests are testing for. These tests do not diagnose the disease or confirm the presence of any symptoms or functional disorder of the human body. They only test the presence of the virus…

I disagree. The rendering looks like a mustang rear end hastily photoshopped onto a c8 with the windscreen pushed back. The C7 looks much better than that render.  That said, I adore the C8 body. 

No, I think humans in protective gear provide the service.

Not saving lives means not saving the economy as well.

Saw the chart, was not particularly impressed.

Wow, generalize much?  Also, could you be a bigger douchebag?  

I haven’t seen any. And my wife is a doctor. She and all her colleagues are going to work, doing their jobs. No hazard pay requested. Some N95 masks would be nice though.

And by yourself you mean by contracting privately with Waste Management, right? 

For the short term, maybe. If we actually enter a depression and those jobs become more coveted items, probably not.

I’m not going to hate on garbage collectors because I doubt we have all the details, but it does seem like they are leveraging the situation for pay increases. 

So do garbage collectors interact with many people at work? I mean, bus drivers, retail workers, police and fire, taxi drivers, healthcare workers I would understand. And yet I haven’t heard of any of them striking.

Kind of ironic to assemble all of your workers (if in fact that lead image is accurate) within close proximity to demand that the employer give them the necessary equipment to stop a virus that predominantly transferred through exhaled air particulates being inhaled by others.

FWIW Someone I know decided to travel and thought it was an OK thing to do since he really wouldn’t contact anyone and hadn’t been around anyone recently. He was already sick when he left (asymptomatic) and didn’t even know it. He’s now nearly dead in an ICU far away from home. O2 sat is around 40 last I heard. His…

I dunno man.  Mini-vans aren’t cheap these days either!

I would like $10k of my mortgage forgiven. I paid my student loans of 9 years early. I should still be paying them. Some of us value not being in debt. Why reward poor choices? 

6 of one, half a dozen of another. The government is paying out $10K towards them either way. To a privileged class of college educated people no less. How about paying $10K off on car notes for all people making under $50K a year?  Or just giving everyone $4500 cash?  So many better ways to spend the money.

With that logic, why not give $10,000 to everyone then?

Forgiving student loan debt is not.
