The Democrats aren't what they used to be. These days, they lean farther left than ever.

You guys were just complaining that Biden wasn't left enough to suit socialists. I think republicans would do better if they could come up with a consistent story.

Even the American Conservative Union, which has an ideological fix that all democrats are "leftists" admits that Biden is less liberal than most other democrat leaders.
Is Joe Biden Actually Moderate or Is He More Progressive Than We Think?

Biden will be whatever they tell him to be... like a nice socialist puppet who has not had an original thought in at least a decade.

In my state 7.5% of positive cases are below the age of 19. That's not so bad. Unless, of course, one of them is your kid. Real data here.
It would be interesting if instead of spanning 20 years and doing 0-9 then 0-19 like the other age groups what the results would be.

So, given the math (which has been consistent with data from states that "opened up") and states like Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, or California, one might expect that in a school with 500 kids, you would see about 23 kids being hospitalized in serious condition.
So, 4.6 % of kids in school are going to the hospital with serious conditions if we open schools?....WHERE'S YOUR SCIENCE FOR THAT CLAIM?

I suspect it would be skewed toward high school students who are more mobile and out and about being exposed to who knows what. Nonetheless, they expose the kid across the aisle, who comes home and exposes their mom with asthma or grandma who lives in the backroom. It's still risky.

Data, showing those rates of serious illness in different age groups infected.

Assuming, of course, that you don't make all of them wear masks (good luck on that), and you maintain 6 feet of social distancing at all times.

If you rigorously maintain those and disinfect things like desks, doorknobs and class books after each use, the rate of illness would be much less. Is that what you propose?
