Can confirm. Perfectly healthy sister in law thinks she is going to die and is still hyper isolating.
Told her I work in facilities with rosters in the thousands. Only know of one death from covid indirectly. Poorly ladies 60 year old brother passed. Getting covid while on chemo.
Feds came in. Deputized the locals. Lotta peeps got pinched and aren't getting out. Party was over. Commies were seething but had to move onto other metros to "protest" . Get in their cars and every couple of miles get out and leave gifts in the dry brush. Parting gift for locals not supporting their "cause".
They're full of the same disinterested political establishment as the DAs unwilling to prosecute. Turning a blind eye and giving passive assent. Local PD/Sheriffs find fire works and people literally setting fires in fields. FBI sees nothing.
Yea. Ok. Sure.
Guys this is no joke. The eastern suburb of Portland is being evac'd right now. As a long time Pede of Oregon I have never seen fires get this close to town or this out of control this quickly. Not even considering the I5 blazes in the same period.
This is literal terrorism.

DEMAND ISNT EVEN HIGHER THAN 2006. PRODUCTION IS LOWER THAN IT WAS 14 YEARS AGO.
Reposted for you. Basically they've cut Nuke/Ngas production and are surprised they're coming up short. I was told Wind/Solar would make up for it. Guess not.
They only have authority because they have your obedient consent.
Less than 15 people died from "corona" in my state last week. I'm fairly sure more died from suicide and foul play caused by the shutdowns at this point.
That and if electricity was semi-permanently cheap for the next 100 years. Alot of problems go from big political wedge points to non-issues. Desalination. Manufacturing. Food Production. Shipping. Recycling. All of these things require a fuckton of energy. If electricity is plentiful and cheap many of them are non-issues.
Very hard to get elected to solve non-issues. Hence self-inflicted crisis state we constantly suffer and those who start/exploit them. Hence the entire climate change bullshitters want nothing to do with nuclear. They don't want actual solutions. They want power and money.
