It's kind of like the ending of the movie "The Mist." Sometimes you should have waited to see exactly what was coming around the corner. If the thing becomes less dangerous you'd have killed thousands of people for nothing. |

At least TRY to think through what you're saying here. No one's gonna DIE OF STARVATION because they can't eat a hamburger. There are plenty of other foods that are in no danger at all, even if they aren't your primary preference. |

People aren't going to die of starvation because they can't get a Double at Wendy's for a few weeks. Jesus Christ.

I know this is cold of me, but I've never quite understood why people in the United States ever worry about people dying from starvation. Pre-covid, there are more than enough soup kitchens and free food centers that you SHOULD never have to worry about dying from it. I'm sure it is frustrating having to be in those areas at the very time they open, but it's free food what can you do. Other third world countries though without those options could be dicey, though. |

These meat plants weren't shut down, they weren't practicing social distancing. They aren't a casualty of shutting the economy down. The supply is getting disrupted specifically because they didn't try to stop the virus, to keep the supply chain moving. And they failed. The meat plants are a perfect example of how if you just let things roam free, the virus is still gonna do serious damage and shut down businesses. There's no running away from it, or trying to carry on as normal. |

I looked it up. 9 million die from starvation and starvation-related illness every year.

Now that they've seen an outbreak of sorts, they are cycling people on and off and mandating masks. |

Moreover, the sources he links themselves mention large issues due to recent weather in the Horn of Africa, causing major food disruptions in the area. |
