Can you imagine if squirrels just stopped collecting nuts around September because they heard there was a virus out there and the leader of the squirrel government ordered them into their holes early?

Did you know that currently, every year going into winter, about 10% of squirrels die because they failed to collect enough nuts.

So in this hypothetical scenario, do you think it was wise for the squirrels to listen to their leader and stop producing because virus fears outweighed their need to collect nuts?

You think humans aren't animals? Should we really be closing down meat processing plants?????? Wake up.

By the way, who here would resort to cannibalism rather than starve to death?

That 10% I mentioned.... that's current and actual data. Imagine how many would starve to death under a virus lockdown.

This post reminds me of this joke. It is probably there in a better form but, this was easy to find. It is about the grasshopper and the ant. One saves. One doesn't. The government takes over and the one who saved is demonized and loses everything. It is a funny read though. Link

I support social programs. Efficient social programs. But, to the point of the government controlling everything. No thank you. As far as the squirrels taking a furlough....one of my friends who used to clean my house was laid off her new job as a waitress. I thought she'd be calling me, looking for work. Instead, she is getting $600. on top of her unemployment and a stimulus check. So, she is out goofing off every day like she is on vacation. This is a young lady that I really like. She's just got a bit of learning to do. But she's is not someone you'd want in your tribe in the case of a zombie apocalypse.
