ChrisC:  Some of you will choke on what I am about to say, but I would feel remiss if I didn't mention my most recent conspiratorial theory.  The panic over this virus is ludicrous and irresponsible given its lethality, however, it is a way to "encourage" people to go buy some supplies to help them through a few weeks of a tough time. 

1.5 Trillion was laid out in one night last week to handle the repo market and now even Glenn Beck is talking about it. 

Trump called all the banking heads in for a meeting last week and I believe it was how he was going to handle their imminent collapse.  If our government told its people that the banks were about to fail, there would be a run on the banks and it would be chaos and pandemonium in the streets. 

 If they go down and people have secured several packages of toilet paper, maybe they can make it during the time it will take to reorganize everything.  Who cares about food as long as you have toilet paper. 

This makes sense why the Marine Reserves were mobilized a couple of months ago and why the absurd panic over a souped up cold.  This is all my hair brained idea only backed up with a lot of experience, but it is just IMO.  Be sure you get some toilet paper but throw in a can or two of beans also.  

Mike4339:  There is obviously more behind this virus than meets the eye...I find it strange that all these businesses and school districts are closing until the end of March, or the first week of April. If the Corona Virus was so out of control, wouldn't you expect everything to be "Closed until further notice"? Oh yeah, IMO

Iggy:  do not forget the bank meetings...something more……imo

Goldenboy:  I went to five stores just to get toilet paper! The stores were full of food and people but all toilet paper gone, lol! It’s not even that kind of virus!

This was all predicted in a 1981 book from Dean Koontz called “The Eyes of Darkness” describing to the year 2020, the virus would come out in Wuhan China. Said it would be flu like. Would come and then disappear quickly.

This is a setup IMO for something big! Trump knew the corrupt media would jump on this based on their stupidity. Remember, he knows how to play them. He set the hook in the Rose Garden the other day! Imo, the next two weeks will be a roller coaster ride that we haven’t seen before.

What if, they use this time under a national emergency to arrest the corrupt politicians who for years have escaped justice while the common man isn’t allowed the same.

What if, you see a treasonous x president go down for an attempted coup.

What if you see the world currency switch to Gold backed and there is a global reset!

What if this has all been a game and they knew there would be some collateral damage to set up and complete this,but it they would rather have the weak and frail sacrificed instead of a mass chaos ending in countless dead world wide!

The stage is set, toilet paper in closet, popcorn in the microwave, let’s get this party started!

Iggy:  it's getting hot in here...put on your hazmat suit...let's spread some cheer...if you lock them all up, i will buy the beer...
