It's getting serious now. The Wanenmacher Tulsa Gun Show has been cancelled.
The medical system is on the verge of being overwhelmed on a good day.
This is going to be a train wreck.
Maybe. But I have more faith in the free market than most people and, with the government doing away with a myriad of rules and regulations, the free market is getting more and more able to respond to this virus. (It would be better still if the government would repeal all those "
price gouging" laws, but that's not going to happen.
I'm certainly no fan of President Trump, but it's pretty hard to fault him for his handling of this, at least so far. The CDC and FDA were caught flat-footed, but those were problems he inherited. The things he's doing now will flatten the curve. But we're in uncharted territory, we've never done the things we're doing now, and it's just not possible to predict how this will turn out.
Looking at the good side of things, my daughters and grandkids are calling me every day, just to check on me. And on the bad side of things, MY DAUGHTERS AND GRANDKIDS ARE CALLING ME EVERY SINGLE DAY JUST TO CHECK ON ME. Oh. well.
Onward and upward,
