doing a little calculating

[Intrinsic]

Okay I was doing a little calculating, there are about 220 million adults in the United States. Given the 2020 stimulus package was estimated at 2.2 trillion giveaway.

Let's see: 2,200,000,000,000 ÷ 222,000,000 = 9,909.90990991

Doing the Hocus Pocus mathematical trick of rounding.

Without corporate giveaway, We would get 10,000 dollars for every single adult in america Rich poor documented undocumented, $10,000.

Nup. My price is $50,000.

Here another way to look at the math...

That "giveaway", though the magic of reserve banking, is actually aboot $6 trillion.

We'll be generous and say all 220 million adults get the $1,200 and $500 for each of the 100 million kids...for a total of $314 billion...or roughly 5% of the total package. And we'll just double that to 10% to cover additional individual relief like unemployment increases and extensions. So the corps will get the other 90%.

But that debt incurred by the country will eventually have to be paid off. Of the revenues the country collects, 90% comes from individuals and 10% comes from corporations.

So you will be paying $9 for each dollar you get...and the corps will pay $1 for every $9 they get.

And people wonder why I get so pissed aboot that stimulus package.

'cause it ain't no stimuli. It's a looting.

to bad folks don't know we don't need to borrow all this money into existence...

i filled out the form for the $1200.
not filed taxes since the 80's.
rather poor i can use it.
3 people i know got it today.
2 on s/s and one is a worker.

Thanks Bob for your calculations, I've cited them elsewhere in real life.


Okay I did some more calculations.
Since I can't figure out how to copy the graphs as pictures, please refer to the site where the data I'm using.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


If you look at the graph on daily new cases you'll see it's oscillating around approximately 24,000 per day.

And on the new daily deaths graph you'll see it's oscillating around approximately 2,000 per day.

That is currently a ratio of 1 to 12. Translated for every 12 people tested positive covid-19 one died. 8% fwiw.
Is that correct? ???

I do not like those odds.

[Butcher Bob]

Their 26% rate for closed cases sure seems scary.
The figures you cite certainly are in the ballpark.
But there are other rates that need to be taken into concideration for a more accurate picture...like the % of folks that get it, but never know because they never exhibited any symptoms.

Thanks for the ball park confirmation. Not just me.

Yeah if you read where they get their data from and how it's changed over time, I find a lot to critique on how it how it could skew it one where the other. I also recognize that's a lot of data to correlate in real time. A final analysis may look different. But it's real data.


Right , t's not a set of the whole population only the subset of the population that's been actually tested covid 19 positive and not just a carrier( false negative).


Hypothesising the non tested population ought to be close to the tested, that is 1 out of 12 that is not tested dies. ???

Is one's statistical odds of dying from covid19 higher if you get tested? lower or the same. Just spit balling.

[Intrinsic]

I realize one inaccuracy of my hypothesis , those that recorded dead may not have been recorded as tested positive ss a new case. And we're in the non-tested population.
