I thought his shrink prescribed him to stop posting, because he was in a hard downward

No it’s not – the regular viruses like the Flu and RSV are the real issue, and always have been. Keeping everyone locked away is the reason we see a rise in more severe cases because as long as humans lived, exposure to other humans is required for a strong immune system. The level of fear out there is irrational, and people like JAFO project their PTSD onto others, and should seek treatment.

Since OPERATION WARP SPEED is over, the vaccines are not going to be updated fast enough for the likely 1200 variants wee will have in March 2023.

So we are back to square one or worse regarding Covid, it has so many changes now that there is NO WAY to vaccinate ourselves from constant waves of infection.

The damages are already to severe to even calculate. As much a 9.5 Million peopled disabled, others never ever going top perform the same again. The current labor shortages WILL continue so even if the FED keeps increasing the rates, inflation is not controllable when you have such a radical drop of production with no ability to control demand on many kinds of markets, like energy, food, and medicine.

This WILL force no business to be able to borrow money to pay workers, so that business model is DEAD. The world will have to earn as they go. And acquiring any kind of ROI above Inflation rates will NEVER occur again.

I just saw a video about a Microsoft Azure engineer being laid off. That is the only growth part of the Microsoft Enterprise brand, they use it to establish fault tolerant management of Microsoft networks. The fact that those jobs are dropping means Microsoft is about to fall off a cliff. And that is nothing compared to Meta, Twitter, Alphabet, and others.

MY GOD DID WE SCREW UP ON COVID

Your opinion is not an observation.
Repeatedly posting your opinion on topics unrelated to the article is not convincing.
Your Covid fear-mongering is passé and amounted to nothing over the past 2 years.
Shifting to new fear-mongering rants on topics you have no knowledge of makes you look even more ridiculous.

Again, it just seems that people here want to get Angry because of the reality is that things are NOT going to improve in any way here. It is simply easier for these people to “hate” a person rather than deal with the reality of so many forces BEYOND the control of either local politicians or anyone else for that matter.

Elizabeth Holmes just got 11 years in prison for the fraud she did. I think this is going to open a lot more prosecutions in this area because the fact was Theranos BURNED UP almost a $Billion in their fraud. WHERE DID THAT MONEY GO, IT IS GONE FOREVER.

Too many businesses of all types in this area are doing the EXACT same thing.

And on top of that, people who work here are going to discover that even if they move and get paid 25% less than here, the fact that the area is so difficult to live in due to cost of living, and the mentality of the working environments in these companies, they are going to leave in droves. Just look at Twitter, and what is happening with Alphabet, Meta, Cisco, and others.

Boy I think you guys have to stop telling people “DON’T LOOK UP” and instead start looking up and get a grip on what’s happening.

But i understand it is so much easier to pick and choose who or what you think is the problem, and thus you become a toolbox with only a hammer in it. You only can work on Nails or destroy something.

Leading up to the election, her paid supporters and PACs carried out the smearing campaign, attacking candidate Mahan with the same selfish, self-centered and deceptive portrayal of his background, experience and commitment to improving San Jose.

Chavez has again chosen the Low Road versus the High Road,
San Jose is lucky to not have elected a career politician that has built a career on actions that diminish, divide and disempower, it is too bad that Santa Clara county (and San Jose as a component of) will have to suffer through 2 more years of Cindy Chavez.

All I can say is do not expect any miracles, the constant scapegoating of certain individuals that are incapable to deal with the SEVERE problems that still exist.

COVD is still a threat and the NYT just reported that vaccines are no longer going to be produced at the rate necessary to keep up.

Interest rates are still going up, even though some reports say the next one will be only .5% that still will further impact property values of all kinds include intellectual,

Look at the Twitter meltdown, look at the tech layoffs and office closures. Look at the depressing holiday outlook, companies are not even hiring temp workers.

And Elizabeth Holmes getting sentenced today, illustrating that “FAKE IT TIL YOU MAKE IT” and “FEAR OF MISSING OUT” are going to either be greatly impaired, or eliminated regarding the future of investment.

Too much fraud in so many businesses. The correction of it is going to be VERY expensive.

But all of the commenters here thing by just removing certain people from their work is going to make a MRACLE, no way, better get prepared

This provides more than enough reason to head her off at the primary next time.
