    I’m Australian. There is national shortage of toilet paper at the moment, because people are panicking about the virus. Why toilet paper? No one knows. But as long as you can still buy toilet paper in your country, you are not truly at ridiculous panic levels just yet.

    • @Denidrakes69

      Apparently it's because enough people here believed that our toilet paper was made in China, and we would run out. It's not. We make over 90% of it right here....Sadly, I thought Australians were smarter than that, but, turns out we're as dumb as any other country (no names 😉) that falls for fake propaganda...

      TheFoxwiz what on earth are you talking about. More so, National student debt is around 1.5trillion dollars.

The same place corporations/wallstreet get their money for bail outs

But your National student debt is kept in check by 1. Not every body goes to College, and 2. there is somewhat still a responsibility of that person to pay back his college debt! Now if we do what you are suggesting EVERY BODY GETS TO GO TO COLLEGE on the GOVERNMENT, which by the way is the TAX PAYERS money, you will see student loan debt INCREASE to UNTHINKABLE and CRUEL levels for the tax payers because now, everyone is getting to go FREE, accept it is NOT free it will be paid by the taxpayers!

    Marc Lipsitch, head of the Harvard School of Public Health’s

    virus conference at Harvard on Wednesday. "What do you think of the president’s
    comments Wednesday evening, (March 4, 2020,) that the U.S. is adequately
    prepared to meet this challenge?" LIPSITCH:
    "I came away from the press conference feeling cautiously optimistic. But, as is often the case, many of the
    president’s individual statements were at odds with his actions and with
    scientific fact, and he seemed to still be in denial. And with the news today that the leadership
    is shifting again and that federal health and science officials will be muzzled
    from speaking without clearance, my cautious optimism is gone. It is simply
    authoritarian and un-American for politicians to tell public health leaders
    what they can and can’t say about a public health crisis." Trump fired the Obama-Biden pandemic team and
    agency whose job was to go to foreign countries like China and help them
    contain diseases before they spread to the United States and other
    countries. We don't need " an authoritarian
    and un-American" President. We need
    a President who knows how to handle potential pandemics.
