  • Avian flu's mortality is orders of magnitude higher than Covid's. It's like 60% or something like that. If you get a pandemic it will kill billions. The vaccine would help a lot in the early stages as it would prevent the virus from infecting more people. The more people it infects the higher chances are it will mutate and get more contagious or deadlier or both.

    Good thing the US admin has people monitoring the situation(that's a joke, we're fucked).

  • If he wasn't rich he would be dead by now. The medical care people like him and normal people get is miles apart. Remember when he got Covid and they gave him top of the line retrovirals and he came out no worse for wear? Meanwhile people were dying in droves around the US.

    Also due to his wealth he most likely hasn't suffered any of the stress of having a regular job, commuting, worrying about the future. Those are all stress factors that will shorten your life expectancy.

    Yeah, if Donny boy wasn't a rich asshole he would be dead around 50-60 years old.

  • So I guess the US is now in a free for all? Commit crimes, suck up to Trump, maybe give him a nice gift, and you're out of any punishment.

    It will be a rude awakening for everyone when they realize laws are not even worth the paper they are written on.

  • Despite what rich people want you to believe you don't actually have to be that smart to be rich. You just have to be lucky and ruthless. Being lucky enough to be born into the right family for example has a disproportionately bigger impact to becoming wealthy than your personal achievements. What you lack in luck or smarts you make up by being ruthless and steal and exploit. Your employees, your community, your government and so on.

  • To make sure the plane is up to spec to being the Air Force One they would basically have to take the plane apart and rebuild it with the required specifications which takes a long time.

    My bet is Trump is gonna make them do it faster and skip installation of some features. Hopefully they don't plan to fly it close to any zone that has an active conflict. Otherwise someone may take a chance and try shooting it down, and they may succeed because the plane hasn't had ECM or chaff or some other countermeasures installed.

  • For how long is it gonna stay like that?

    Also for how much people are touting the First Amendment it seems pretty useless if you're a regular Joe and the government can just pick you off the street for talking shit about them and ship you off to God knows where. Even if you eventually get out, can you afford to not work for a few months while imprisoned? Can you afford to pay the lawyers that will fight to have you freed?
