Having GPS tracking available and actually getting an entire country to use it effectively for contract tracing are two different things. People went nuts having to temporarily shutdown to slow the virus impact. There is no way they are going to be OK with opening up GPS to contact trace.
He wasn't asking his health officials. He was making a sarcastic joke, right?
JUST STOP ALREADY!!!! TAKE THIS SOMEWHERE ELSE!
if you would have asked if the public would have been ok with forcibly shutting down businesses, beaches, church gatherings, schools, etc. I bet you would have said it was impossible. I would think forcing your business to close is a little more harsh than GPS tracking you to alert you if you came in contact with someone who was COVID positive. If we are to believe the media who says the vast majority of people are ok with the lockdown, then more people would be ok with the GPS tracking than you think. will there be people that don't want that? sure. Just like in korea and the people who still went to nightclubs during the height of the pandemic.
who was he asking then? the public?

So what you are saying is that those with mental issues will die and those with no mental toughness will
I am serious, I raised three kids on my own, no child support or alimony and had a low paying job. Had a really rough year where I had to work three jobs for about 9 months and swore I would never let that happen again. I saved, in about 5 years I had at least six months income in the bank that I could stretch to eight months if needed. The money is still in the bank! You are delusional if you think that people can't save. I drove my Toyota Corolla for nineteen years until the bottom rusted out and I could see the road below the seat. Finally donated it, nobody wanted it. There are second hand stores for just about everything. We didn't go out to eat, I could go on and on. Go enjoy your beer, tacos, McDonalds or whatever your food preference is. There is great freedom in knowing that you have emergency funds, have saved for special events, and saved for your retirement. Self discipline is great! Try it sometime!

As long as you continue to discards facts in order to support your position, people are going to know that you are clueless whether I point it out or not.
There are vultures out there who are swooping down to grab as many top players as they can and then dropping current players. It will be interesting to see if there is even a season ahead.
You are the exception not the rule. Strange, people assume republicans like myself have no compassion but this guy is evil. Some people fall on hard times that are beyond what they control. I agree more people need financial competence, but to say everyone should be able to do it is false. Some people need help because they are in a situation beyond their control.
So explain this then... what do you say to those who are elderly/ disabled/ pregnant/ immune compromised and are living with healthy people, when everything opens up again. What then? Does that mean that the one person has to go away and live by themselves until a vaccine is created. If the healthy family members go back into the community where there’s now a higher chance of exposure, they now bring a higher risk of exposure to their family member. No matter how you want to see this, you are basically saying that my life as an immune compromised person is expendable, because the aforementioned scenario is exactly what’s happening in my home, and it’s my family’s biggest fear.
You said "If the healthy family members go back into the community where there’s now a higher chance of exposure"
Agree, I had a year where I needed help and didn't get it. But learned. Probably 80% of people could definitely do better, even if it means dropping club soccer! Imagine saving $2,000 to $3,000 a year for three years and banking that amount. You then would have six to nine thousand dollars in the bank and that is with just dropping one thing. I would love to see a survey of how many times a week families eat out, or stop for beverages or buy lunch instead of bringing something from home. I suspect people would be shocked at how much they spend over the course of a month. Read an interesting story about a family who set a goal of not buying anything new for one year. Wish more people would really read stories like this or the one about the man who worked as a custodian his whole life. He and his wife never had children but upon his death, his wife died first, he left an estate of over two million dollars. That was working a minimum wage job his entire life. That was an amazing story! Unfortunately, people want immediate gratification and lack the self discipline to do what would actually make them feel secure and free and rally enjoy their life. Oh well, human nature.
I don't think many people here with kids in club soccer have a problem saving for emergency situations. There are significantly more people in this country that aren't as blessed as you, fully aware they need to save but cant. you should really recognize that.
You and espola really need some practice on reading comprehension lol.
