RobBlair comments on Apr 6, 2020:

This type of equality (equality of outcome) is a call for everyone to be equally poor and miserable and stems from jealousy. Instead, focus on being individually exceptional and deny those voices that would hold you to the bondage of victimhood. No sane American wants to be brought down to be equal with the rest of humankind.

RobBlair comments on Apr 3, 2020:

My wife went shopping this morning and they still don't have toilet paper and paper towels due to people hoarding. If we removed the "profiteering" stigma, stores would have increased their costs in response to the false demand and forced hoarders to either reconsider their purchase of 10 year supply of toilet paper, or, the grocery store would make an excessive profit that they could then use to accelerate the purchase of more TP. That's a win-win-win-win - purchaser-store-manufacturer - and us because, for a little more money, we'd have a couple more weeks of TP and towels. A little more complicated here, but follows the same line. A bunch of people were highly motivated ($460!!) to purchase covid tests that weren't approved (see quote below). The price alone should cast doubt that these highly motivated customers were ignorant buffoons. If I was super rich (who else wouldn't wait for the free test?) and wanted to get tested immediately, this is probably a good deal. The middle man does exceedingly well and is motivated to supply more tests and the testing company makes their money. I'd wish the testing company charged the middle man more and the middle man charged less, but I wasn't the super rich customer that had to have the test immediately. If the middle man doctor didn't educate his customers before selling the test then he could be held to charges of fraud. That is not clear in the story. "To offer its coronavirus testing capabilities to the new programme, Randox’s Coronavirus Multiplex Array recently underwent evaluation from Public Health England. In its evaluation of the Randox test, Public Health England’s report noted that the assay correctly identified all positive and negative samples without exception. As a result the government are proceeding to utilise the Randox Coronavirus Multiplex Array in the new testing programme for NHS staff, with an exceptionally high degree of confidence." - https://www.randox.com/government-covid-testing-nhs-staff/

RedState: Beginning of the End for Wuhan Flu? [redstate.com]

RobBlair comments on Apr 2, 2020:

Need to know the base population. Something like : 100 virus positive patients reviewed but not treated with drug. 20 of them require intubation. vs 100 virus positive patients are seen, treated with drug and 0 of them require intubation. About 20% of untreated patients require intubation. 80% don't. The chance of 2 patients not requiring intubation is 80% * 80% = 0.8^2 = 64%. The chance that 20 patients don't require intubation is about 1%. 100 patients is effectively 0. Just numbers, but I like numbers.

Now in the other direction - in the near future, there will be a major disaster. How many more lives will be lost then because our economy stalled now?

RobBlair comments on Mar 30, 2020:

Consider a Brit with a cough walking into a private health clinic that specifically does not treat emergencies. The Brit will probably not pay for the service and there is an NHS hospital 5 blocks away that is already geared up to treat the cough. The clinic immediately says we can't help you here do you want us to call an ambulance? (Doesn't have quarantine procedures, ventilator, fast testing and pharmacy the hospital does). If you haven't thought of this scenario, consider, you are in a system that doesn't really want you questioning how effective it is. If something like this happens in the UK, who is going to tell you? What good would it do anyhow?

RobBlair comments on Mar 30, 2020:

The market provides information that informs businesses. When you invest or sell in the market you are communicating where you think the future is regarding that company. 'They' is you if you invest in the market. Even during this time, the market is filled with opportunities (communication systems, software, hospital construction, medical research, etc...) and some companies will require long term corrections (Theaters, sports tickets, airlines, etc...).

RobBlair comments on Mar 26, 2020:

That's a tough one. Getting sick is not the big deal. Using up hospital services and exposing others is. As for understanding the risk of infection, it seems higher than the flu. What do we close down during the flu season? (We do close some retirement homes). The big problem is that we need to establish an acceptable baseline. South Korea seems to be the ideal and Italy is what we want to avoid. As info comes in (countries are bending the curve and the mortality rate is coming into focus as a little higher than the Flu), it looks like these church goers may be vindicated. Of course, I disdain gamblers, but perhaps the stakes were right.

Amazon will now deliver for free to Palestine – Middle East Monitor

RobBlair comments on Mar 5, 2020:

Two questions are completely left unanswered: 1. If I could save on shipping costs by having my package delivered to a fictitious address that just happens to coincide with my actual address, why wouldn't I? (Hatred has a place here) 2. Why did Amazon have this policy? - “multiple technical, legal and logistical challenges that have prevented us from offering our free shipping promotion to our customers in the Palestinian Territories. We have been working on a solution to some of these challenges and are now providing access to the free delivery promotion to our customers in the West Bank.” So we just ignore what Amazon says? Maybe Israel makes it harder to ship to Palestinians? Maybe there is a fee imposed on shipments to Palestine? Maybe Palestinians are known to steal packages or engage in frivolous returns in a way that Israelis aren't? I support the right of businesses to make economically informed decisions regarding how they do business in different cultures. If a business determines that "free" deliveries are economically beneficial to the company due to a local culture that respects other people's property and doesn't engage in frivolous returns, then have at it. I discourage companies and the forces that impose themselves on companies, from making political decisions that are not directly based on forwarding the company. In this case I promote AirBnB, Expedia, TripAdvisor, Booking Holdings, General Mills, and Motorola for gaining the ire of the UN "Human Rights" Council regarding the UN's blackmail list against these companies.

So some of these things are obvious and should get support. Some should require more study. And some should be left to more local jurisdictions.

Trump Praises Modi's India, Ignoring Anti-Muslim Violence

RobBlair comments on Feb 26, 2020:

An interesting problem. Does FDR meet with "Uncle Joe" (Stalin murderer of 20 million) to attack the Nazis or does he remain pure and reject the company of that swindling murderer? If one has a "one world order" philosophy, then the purity test is valid since everyone, including foreign citizens, must be treated equal. But, in a local MAGA philosophy, where your job is to promote only your country, kissing up to evil people like Putin, Xi, Little Rocket Man and Modi is appropriate when the effort may provide a benefit to negotiations. Modi's perspective is best characterized as pro-hindu. Muslims are not the only religion being attacked in India.

RobBlair comments on Feb 24, 2020:

“When new missions emerge or existing ones evolve, the Department of Defense requires maximum flexibility to respond to threats to carry out its mission of protecting the American people,” Trump wrote. “This flexibility requires that military and civilian leadership manage their organizations to cultivate a lethal, agile force adaptive to new technologies and posture changes. Where collective bargaining is incompatible with these organizations’ missions, the Department of Defense should not be forced to sacrifice its national security mission and, instead, seek relief through third parties and administrative fora.” So compete or die. I hate monopolies and the DOD should be exempt from them. There is little evidence that the DOD won't spend lots of money to get what they want. Now it's up to the Union to make sure that they provide what the DOD wants. What am I missing? Do Unions improve quality? Performance? Value?

"The A-bombs dropped on Japan weren't that deadly because most Japanese (the ones outside of the explosions) survived" argument. It is currently documented that 1 out of 20 people who get the coronavirus die. The flu kills 1 out of 1000. It is suspected that the information is not correct because China is a liar. But, to predict one way or the other is speculation for sheep. The reason why incident rates are low is because the WHO is working to contain the virus.

This is why I was so angry at my congressman who voted for TARP after the housing bubble. The Federal "rescue" of our financial systems allowed us to ignore the foundational rot of our institutions. This was further reinforced by the Dodd-Frank Act (both Dodd and Frank should have been relegated to the hallway after their assurances regarding Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac turned out to be lies). Of course, the repeal of this excrement is no doubt responsible for much our current economic windfall, but I'd prefer a more involved electorate telling our idiots in DC to keep their hands off our free market.
