The coming shutdown?

   


       One thing that has been learned in the handling of the present pandemic is that the quicker you take action to control the spread the quicker you can control the virus.  Many countries in the Far East recognized this fact and have been able to have some normalcy return to their countries.  The United States, the country of personal liberty and individual risk, has seen our Country devastated by the virus.  We still seem to be sticking our heads in the ground with Trump's idiocy killing tens of thousands of US citizens.  Now as Europe, which is in better shape than the US, begins to go into a new shut down we have Trump spreading the virus, that he had, around the Country with his rallies.   If you think we will go through this Winter without a new shutdown you are fooling yourself.  The only problem is we will wait so late that it will not have the results it could have if we were to follow Europe right now.  Some proactive actions now will restore our economy quicker than waiting for herd immunity to end the pandemic with more deaths than in all of our wars combined.  Will the US continue to be the "stupid" country?
