    I've noticed how live shots of cities around the world are often crystal clear. It is very noticeable. I imagine city planners around the world and gathering as many scenic shots as they can while their city skies are clean and clear.

    One report made me think of this old theme song...

    I wonder what the Green Deal types think of this?
    ITMT: LOL, you must be as old as me to have even known who Bobby Sherman is!

    Was it? Perhaps that's what you were told to think by some in the leftist media. It doesn't make your position truth, or reasonable for that matter. It still doesn't preclude the inevitable recovery that will happen as soon as the lockdowns are lifted.

    With your logic, the poor economy when Obama took over in 2009 was Obama's fault. The Obama followers were just making excuses for him.....right?

    This looks like a good place to put this. It looks like 66% of NY hospitalizations are people who observed the stay at home orders.

    If he hadn’t made any progress in three years I might have blamed him. That didn’t end up being the case though. What’s Trump’s excuse?

    1.8% GDP mean growth over 8 years is something you support?
