It is ironic because they are actually doing the right thing and in the process are limiting their liability. Cruise ships would be petri-dishes for Covid-19, as you are on the same vessel with people for days on end. One infection and you get multiple. Combine that with the possible inability to get back to the USA and it could be a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open up and let people live. The cure has become worse than the virus as more and more businesses close for good. Millions of people out of work. Let people decide what they wanna do. Cdc stated cant get it from asymptomatic people Can't get it from surfaces If ur immune system is that weak stay home but the rest of us want to live our lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am retired and I have given up my side hustle and just: trade the markets, go for my early morning walk/jog, buy groceries, go to the park and do household chores. No work, no live sporting events, no large social gatherings. When we have an effective treatment and/or vaccine, I will go back to what was normal. My life is worth more than risking it over Covid-19. I want to see my grandchild reach adulthood and that means living at least 18 more years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a rough life, but I make myself happy by doing things I find interesting or helpful to me or others. When we are all born as little children, we all found the world to be a place pregnant with possibilities. If you want to be happy the trick is to rediscover your inner child.

Looking back at my childhood yes there was good but there was a lot of time spent doing something that took me away from friends which I don't have today. And I personally have a very big grudge about it. I just don't personally like what we have to do in life. I love this country. I have no problems with capitalism as a system. But for me at the end of the day I'm not gonna make it. But I never thought I would. Had enough experiences in my teens and 20s to realize the system is not for me. But im not changing it. It works for many. And in that aspect capitalism should never change in this country. Socialism communism is not the answer. Its a personal commitment to do what u have to do in order to succeed.

I was not talking about systems largely outside our control here. I was talking about just making some simple changes in your life to enjoy it more. You are still relatively young. It is not too late to make a few simple changes. But to do so, you need to figure out what would make you happy. To me happiness is not about fun. It is about getting up and feeling like, today I am going to do something that makes me want to see tomorrow. It is about finding your place in life without regard to the expectations of others. If you can find that, then you will truly enjoy life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to be more positive about yourself and situation. In the grander scheme of the world, they are billions of people in much worse situations but most of them soldier on even though their situation is daunting.
