#11  Two years ago, I did some figures and then plumped down $1000 on a power rack and weights. About a week after that, there wasn’t a 45 pound plate available in the country.

I would have spent a lot more on the gym, and gyms are a pain in the ass these days - always closing.

The WHO skipped Xi - maybe it’s that variant.

Well, we'll wait to see what happens and what the spread is before rejoining the "Y".

We are NOT going flush $$$.00 for an annual membership we can't use again.

#9  Seeing more mentions of "deltacron" again. The people who are livid over the collapse of mask and vax mandates are going to make another run at it, you can bet.

Real or Deflection for something else?

I ask because usually, the CCP is tight-lipped and sits on negative information.

eg. For the whole Pandemic the CCP has claimed only 113,528 Covid-19 infections for a population of 1,439,323,776.

Why the big change, if not for alternative reasons.

#7  I think the links are well established among
(Tinker) COVID bullshit
(Evers) pushing people (including nurses!) who refuse the jab out of the workforce
(Chance) paying millions of people not to work
and
(TRIPLE PLAY) hyperinflation

#6  Want high inflation?
Then force people to stay home, not work
Shut down Keystone etc, make WTI soar
Declare "financial war" using nuclear sanctions on the world's biggest wheat exporter

Cui bono?

#5  /\ If we had the correct leadership in Washington, I suspect many things could be quickly mended to include inflation.

WSJ's Goodhart view is that of the many on the left, essentially.... it's a global problem, not a problem of Biden administration's making.

I don't buy it.

#3  So will the big TESLA plant in Shanghai be forced into shutdown?

#2  So Shanghai/Shenzhen and Chongqing: 26.32 million + 12.59 million + 31.02 million = 69.93 million with lives pulled out of the workplace!
This will have a major economic impact.

#1  It would be ironic if this was the New Flu escaped from a Ukrainian bio-lab.
