KSB2424 3,100 Posted November 20, 2020 Well, the past four years had: 1. Record low unemployment B. Booming economy III. No wars, low American deaths abroad. Then a virus, derived from China, infected the world. And America’s Private healthcare businesses in conjunction with Trumps “Operation Warp Speed” that helped them has created a vaccine and has the distribution model in place when ready. Australia didn’t do that. Spain, U.K., Canada or Asia, either. So to the OP question? Apparently the opposite will happen. Congratulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
