Federal supersedes state, which supersedes local government. Local policy does not guide federal policy. Failure at the federal level trickles down to the local levels. Failure at the local level rarely trickles up to the federal level. For pandemics and natural disasters however, the precedent is that states governors have authority over their individual state, with guidance and support from the federal government.
Mind you, I am not advocating either way for shut-downs or opening up, I am indifferent at this point. LA isn't open because just like the guidelines for shutting down the guidelines for opening up are not clear. The health and economic impact of opening up LA is still very much unclear. Does the government have great confidence in the transmission and mortality rates enough to make such a decision that has proven impossible to slow down once it takes hold? Is the economic impact risk of them becoming the next NYC outweighing the definitive economic impact of a longer lock down? The government has the resources to gauge the likely hood and answer that, not me.
lot of words for ....not answering the question.

I am not blaming any of them, but I will direct blame towards government if people try to act like media and scientists are the ones in charge of this country. Political affiliations aside, there will be people going down on the wrong side of history for their action/inaction and the wrong messages/policy they spread.
Compared to what America has been through, I think we can all agree that a multi-billion dollar mobilization and prevention effort as an early response would have lead to a drastically lower widespread impact on America (both economically and health wise). This in combination with a plan in place with guidelines on what constitutes as necessary for such an effort for each locality so places that do not need to shut down don't unless necessary. (This is a complex measure to predict, but we will have a baseline pandemic to go off of in the future at least).
the past is the past....why isn't LA open right now...at 1pm central time...answer the question...

USA is currently pulling away slowly from China and moving to India for our cheap labor force. A lot of opportunities there I think, like one of the mods said, deny payment to china of our bonds once we no longer need to rely on them. Economic devastation will be paid for the same as how the economic devastation of war is paid for. Likely by tax reform.
I do not think this will be a foothold for socialism. Big businesses will weather the storm, take on record low debt and sell their high interest debt to the government/rid themselves of junk bonds. Small businesses that were on the verge of failure and can't take on extra loans will be bought out by these big businesses. Moving closer to monopolies, but it represents opportunity for them to have explosive growth and creation of many more jobs once this is over.
I hope this does highlight the deficiencies in our LOCAL government with regards to preparation and planning. I hope it also highlights how fragile america's bottom line is with the plethora of low income american people.
garcetti anyone.....you can run on wet sand in la but not on dry sand...la should be open tonight? but nope...two more months

People can be very happy with very little if they have personal freedoms, a job they don’t despise, and a place of their own. Stay off the social media and Reality TV.
a few beers at the lake over the weekend, maybe a camping trip with the family or the boys every so often. Local sporting event and a pizza. Dreaming of a new snow mobile or truck. A couple steaks on the grill.
the elites mock this life, but the freedom and satisfaction of a simple life well-lived has sustained us for generations.
well said.

To stay with the trend of horrible analogies... the U.S. had a Frazee in goal. A Frazee helps keep out most pucks, however some pucks can still make it into the goal. Other people can choose not to have a Frazee in the goal. Frazee is a sieve and everything shot by a Toews goes right through him into the goal. Having a Frazee in the goal really makes no difference when facing a Toews.

That really doesn't surprise me. He's a good player but not a 25-30/game player. Plus he's shown he doesn't have the durability for that.
"shown"...he never was given the spotlight to "show" what he might have had....
any touches that dalton gee got last year should have gone to cam imo

Have you had Boss' yet? It's pretty good but definitely on the spendy side. And i'm an unabashed huge Popolino's fan as far as my favorite in town.

To the bolded part.........our resident liberal newspaper hack Jim Shaw is waiting for you on line 2.
Also you seem intelligent enough to know there is a difference between a (predictive) model and a study? You cited a study but said it was a model. I mentioned that Harvard study awhile back....again it was a study not a model.
And to your last 3 questions......huh?
i'm starting to think that dynato is schlossman's burner account....for anyone to watch dave portnoy's rant and say that he isn't asking the question that everyone should be asking is crazy.....schloss got so triggered the had to pound out those 140 characters questioning if dave is an "epidemiologist"...

Oh c’mon. “Socialism” is just an anti-left buzzword.9 out of the top 10 poorest US states are staunch Red ones. These are the states with one hand in the air screaming “We hate socialism!”; the other hand squeezing the teat of the federal government for economic survival. I mean, Christ almighty, MS, KY and LA rely on the feds for more than 40 percent of their revenue. Welfare parasites.
Both the Left and Right love big government if it serves their purposes.
40% of their revenue...nice spin
let's take the states of NY and Florida....roughly the same populations. one state is hard blue and florida is mostly red....let's say that each state gets from the federal gov 10 million dollars to fund their states? ok? but NY is a nanny state with tons of corruption so their expenses are 100 million dollars per year but in Florida they only spend 50 million dollars to run their state for that year for roughly the same amount of people.
Headline!!!!! Florida (red state) gets 20% of their revenue for the federal gov and NY (blue state) only gets 10% of their revenue from the federal gov!!!!!!!!!

Who can honestly look in the mirror and say that they want their kids to have a better future than they had, when they won't have a future with all the debt the country is taking on. I guess for those living in fear, there isn't much to spend money on other than TV and a psychiatrist anyway.
but with socialism (when done correctly i've been told) there is nothing to worry about bc magic fairies do all the work and everyone stays at home drinking mountain and playing COD til 3am.

Absolutely.... any other presidency would have been ended by at least a dozen of the scandals that Trump has skated on. The appointments of family members to key government positions and the flagrant self-dealing with his personal businesses would not have flown in any previous presidency either Democratic or Republican.
