We aren't even close to the end of the economic damage.

Unemployment is a lot worse than the depression right now.

Landlords are starting to worry about if they can actually hold on to
their rental property if the renters don't have to pay rent.

Lenders are wondering how many defaults they can expect as soon as the
dust settles.

Businesses are folding all over.

GDP in the US sunk by a third in 2q20.

I think that is why they want us to fight over masks, to take our mind
off of the economy.

Who is the 'they' that wants us to fight over masks?

Our government, from Trump down to the most junior congressman.
It is easier to deal with "maskdebaters" than people who talk about
real problems like where will my next meal come from and will I ever
find a job..

I don't see the government inciting the fight. It's as simple as some folks won't wear a mask, and others are ****ed because they are the ones being put at risk, while they are wearing their masks and protecting the asshole that won't.

Sums it up nicely. What we lack in this country is discipline.

And that is mostly a result of poor leadership.

And Trump is doing his best to school that leadership in managing their
states. Never has there been a president more mindful and respectful of
states rights and responsibilities.

I don't agree wholeheartedly with that. His initial comments ('it's no problem),
his pushing of 'remedies' (Hydroxychloroquine) even after shown unuseable, his
arguing with his own CDC and NIH people, his immature bickering and tweeting
with or about various governors, his continuous repitition of the same **** when
giving his briefings (I think he's told the ventilator story about 37 times
now), and some of the stupid claims he's made (New Zealand has a crisis, for
example) have not been what I would consider attributes of a good leader.

I'm thinking he's purposely trying to throw the election with his mouth and his
tweets.

But, he's better than the alternative. Right now I feel the opposite of most
Democrats who are voting 'against' Trump but not 'for' Biden.

Good medicine doesn't always taste good. ;-)

I have always been able to vote against someone I don't like without
just voting for someone I hate a little less.

Yes, but you will vote for one with no chance, just so you can say you didn't
vote for the winner.
