I don't know where you live but if a person destroys their own life willingly for 12-18 months for a "cause" then they will do whatever they must mentally in order to justify those actions. I have still heard people say Sweden was wrong to not lock down despite there numbers being better than ours by a wide margin.

Just read that a 100% vaccinated naval ship is too crippled by Covid to be active. I am curious how sick they are- are they really sick or all just like my son who had a light cold last week? If they can work and are not among high risk people get them working.

Merry Christmas to all here and I hope we are all happy the morning of February 14, and not because of Valentine days.

"Unlike other research that focuses primarily on academic outcomes or school finance" That quote is from what linked to, meaning that actual success is less important than something else. I truly understand why we can't agree, I want me son to be able to take whatever classes he wants to and have success academically but you prefer to simply measure if the teacher has a doctorate in educational administration.

Do you think it is proper to mandate a vaccine for a 6 year old who has virtually no threat from Covid?

I think this means no one has explained what that means to him. I know Trump was over sensitive at times but this is just being oblivious.

https://www.yahoo.com/gma/white-house-defends-bidens-handling-231738477.html Biden actually said no one predicted Omicron- which amazingly ABC news corrected him and stated EVERYONE knew another variant was coming. I am wondering if the media has decided that Biden is too screwed to save so give him all the baggage and let the rest of Dems survive.

I am not one for hyperbole but I have not wanted a regular season like I want this one since at least the 90's. To beat them in their house with just as much on the line for them as us would make my Christmas .

I am surprised they are even hiding the reports since no one batted an eye when during the last renovation of the stadium the contract stated politicians were given a suite at taxpayer expense. No one left on NY seems to care.

The world has not changed much since the beginning of the pandemic the same people are in danger, older, obese, with heart or lung problems. The vaccine is showing little effect on Omicron, you simply are being told you are safe by the people who told you to lock down last year. I do truly hope you and your family enjoy your holidays together and I am glad you feel safe.

So what is your opinion of black slave owners in the US? Or are they not worth your discussion?

Omicron is making more people sick quicker than anything before it by a pretty large margin regardless of vaxxed status, so if you were afraid last year you should be afraid this year if you are making decisions based on numbers or science, but you make sense if you make decisions politically

At this point I truly think that the entire purpose of the committee is to stretch this out until just before the elections, possibly September, make vague lies about not being able to do their jobs do to obstruction, and then make more dishonest comments through the press that can't be proven wrong because there is not information.

He was off by about 97%, so in Tibs world that is basically correct. It is a shame that is so easily manipulated by stupid people.

What stupidity it takes to act like slavery was mainly a racial act and not just evil. Generally the blacks that were taken from Africa were first made into slaves by other black tribes. Native Americans had slaves in the USA before the Europeans arrived. Not sure why you would also focus on the south when the North was cruel to blacks also. Slavery is evil and needs to be addressed as such, regardless of who did it. To make a child responsible for what their parents did is the act of truly damaged people. We already had this discussion and you have nothing to back you up except your lies.

So you think Covid is being managed now?

Well at least you aren't guaranteed to die like 99.9% of the unvaccinated!

If logic is racist then so is evidence.

Part of difference is temperature- I have sat in upper deck when it was 40 and was more frozen than being in lower bowl during the Raiders playoff game in 94. When cold you want to huddle.

May I ask how it screwed you?

The profile of those I know that ended in the hospital that I know is 60+ years old, with multiple comorbidities, which I think is pretty much across the board for most. My son has one friend who actually got Delta bad enough that he was given the monoclonal antibodies but he was fine 24 hours after that.

The reason I replied at all is that I once had a coworker who always stopped working before his taxes hit the next tax bracket because he thought the next few dollars would cause his tax rate to jump for the whole of his income. Even though I explained it to him he did not believe me. 34's point is wrong even if he was right about taxable part.

Nate Geary tweeting "Data suggests he is much more likely to have severe symptoms" is only correct if you are comparing him to other physically fit 30 year olds. If you are comparing him to 30 years at large it is not true, if you are comparing him to people in general it is very wrong. This is why believing conclusions drawn by the media from data is dangerous

Even if they are taxable since we have a marginal tax rate it would only effect the last little bit if your income.
