This will mostly likely again impact healthcare workers in port cities. Drastically unfair. Now they're falling all over themselves for a high-risk vacation. This will only make COVID linger longer. Seriously, if these people fall ill during, no sympathy from me -- for adults, anyway. They're being flat-out stupid.
https://www.theguardian.com/politic...s-for-global-government-to-tackle-coronavirus Gordon Brown has urged world leaders to create a temporary form of global government to tackle the twin medical and economic crises caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The former Labour prime minister, who was at the centre of the international efforts to tackle the impact of the near-meltdown of the banks in 2008, said there was a need for a taskforce involving world leaders, health experts and the heads of the international organisations that would have executive powers to coordinate the response. A virtual meeting of the G20 group of developed and developing countries, chaired by Saudi Arabia, will be held on Thursday, but Brown said it would have been preferable to have also included the UN security council. “This is not something that can be dealt with in one country,” he said. “There has to be a coordinated global response.” Brown said the current crisis was different to the one he was involved in. “That was an economic problem that had economic causes and had an economic solution. “This is first and foremost a medical emergency and there has to be joint action to deal with that. But the more you intervene to deal with the medical emergency, the more you put economies at risk.” During the financial crisis, Brown persuaded other global leaders of the need to bail out the banks and then hosted a meeting of the G20 in London, which came up with a $1.1tn rescue package. Despite Donald Trump’s “America first” policy, he said it was still possible to get support for an emergency body with executive powers. Brown said his proposed global taskforce would fight the crisis on two fronts. There would need to be a coordinated effort to find a vaccine, and to organise production, purchasing and prevent profiteering. Many countries have announced economic packages in the past two weeks but Brown said a taskforce could: make sure the efforts of central banks were coordinated; take steps to prevent the record flight of capital from emerging market economies; and agree a joint approach to the use of government spending to boost growth. Brown said there had been resistance in 2008 to using the G20 as a vehicle for tackling the financial crisis, but that it should be clear to world leaders that there was no possibility of a go-it-alone approach working. “We need some sort of working executive,” Brown said. “If I were doing it again, I would make the G20 a broader organisation because in the current circumstances you need to listen to the countries that are most affected, the countries that are making a difference and countries where there is the potential for a massive number of people to be affected - such as those in Africa.” The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund needed an increase in their financial firepower to cope with the impact of the crisis on low- and middle-income countries, he said.
It is like a temporary tax that is imposed to fix a problem and then it is never revoked and we pay extra forever. How can people not see what is going on? A temporary global govt . NO WAY!!! Unless they want to make one with DJT in charge
I don't think there is any doubt through all the smoke and mist the face of the anti Christ is being revealed. I think Governments are really surprised how sheep like people really are. I heard a lady on the radio the other day ask someone in Government if it was alright for her to talk to her own mother if she kept a distance. Shocking. The Minister told her, fair play to him, that she should use her common sense. But there is nothing so uncommon as common sense.
From latest TLIG newsletter: The Lord delivered a new Message in the midst of the Corona Virus Pandemic: March 13 - 2020, ''summon the people and tell them: without repenting and truthfulness in your prayer this evil will last longer than you think; turn to Me, your God and repent; a sincere and universal prayer will reach Me, your God; fasting will cast away demons; any sacrifice is acceptable to Me; cast away your lethargic spirit and renounce your evil ways, and make peace with Me, your God; let Me hear: “Lord, have mercy on me, the sinner!” and I will show compassion; and I will rain blessings on all of you; come, do not fear; I am listening… ic''
Yeah just ask the Germans about that temporary east German tax that has been in place since WWII because Russia let the east go to hell. The way things are going the next election could be delayed, even perhaps indefinitely and that would mean Trump would remain our president FOREVER... lol.
I didn't know which forum to put this in I am so excited. My daughter's Confirmation has been reset for May 30th . It was delayed because of the virus but we got a call that it is back on. Bishop Olmsted, Phoenix diocese, has opened up churches for Mass again this week. Of course there is a limited, Phase one, protocols in place but she can be Confirmed. I am just so happy. Our diocese , Tucson, is dragging their feet but Phoenix is opening up. So happy. They are limiting the amount of people that can attend but I am so pleased that she can get Confirmed. The DRE also told us they are having Masses again starting Saturday/Sunday. They can only open for 25% capacity but she told me that if you don't get in the doors, listen to the Mass streaming and after Mass the priests will be distributing communion at the doors for parishioners that wanted it. Even non-parishioners are welcome to receive but you must be Catholic of course. God Bless Bishop Olmsted. I pray that everyone can have their churches open. I feel like a little kid going to Disneyland.
I'm not sure if this has been posted yet but imho this police officer is very brave to speak out like he has. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/v...is-job-and-make-him-a-lot-of-money-2020-05-13 May 13, 2020 Greg Anderson, a Port of Seattle police officer and Special Forces veteran, has a problem with the direction this country is headed during the coronavirus pandemic. He’s prepared to lose his job over it. In a viral Instagram video, Anderson urged fellow law enforcement officers to basically allow citizens their constitutional right to flout stay-at-home orders and go about their business. “I’m seeing people arrested or cited for going to church. I don’t know what crime people are committing for doing nails in their own house,” Anderson said in the video last week. “We have to ask ourselves as officers, ‘Is what I am doing right?’” Pushing his defiant stance against the lockdown, he went on to say he hopes it doesn’t get to the point where we have “to defend our constitutional rights against the government.” ...
