you open up in a certain location and their hospital hasn't been impacted yet. Well maybe you can experiment a little bit there. Maybe you can be a little bit looser in a place that still has plenty of hospital capacity and a little bit tighter where it doesn't.

It looks like outdoors is way safer than indoors. There's a body of evidence that's coming together from past pandemics as well as this one that being inside where you're sharing air is the worst thing that could happen, and being outside probably helps. Apparently before there were antibiotics, pandemics were handled at least partly by outdoor tents. So they would literally just take people out in the sun, put your treatment you know outside in the air. And the sun didn't have to be in direct sunlight but at least outdoors. And apparently the outdoors is really bad for viruses. So it's not a cure but you can certainly reduce the amount of the problems by being outdoors.

So imagine if you will that the president says yeah you can open your restaurant but tables have to be X feet apart, servers have to wear gloves and masks, and all service has to be outdoors or takeout. A lot of restaurants could actually open outdoors. The ones in my town for example, a lot of them have you know a little bit of outdoor seating but you could easily imagine how we could temporarily say oh just extend it to the sidewalk. People are gonna have to walk around in the streets but there isn't much traffic anyway. So you could imagine people getting flexibility to do outdoor dining because the weather's starting to change. Not in your town maybe, but in California you could start already.

The availability of testing, how much there is and where it is, what would be a factor. Your distance from outbreaks. If you're someplace that hasn't had one yet, maybe you get a little more flexibility. I would also factor in your family isolation. You know if you're going to work somewhere, are you bringing something back to a family of five in a 2,000 square foot home? That's not good. Or do you live alone? Or do you live in a home where you have one senior but they're really in their own part of the house and they're safe? If you live alone and you drive alone and you can get some separation, maybe you're top of the line because you're not even bringing it home.

How replaceable are you? I hate to say it that way but you know if you're a manual laborer and somebody can easily do your job, well maybe you go to work as long as we've got the good meds that can keep you alive should you get something, because you're replaceable. I hate to use that but if you're just labor we can find somebody to do some just labor. All right it's cruel but that's the and then the availability of the meds and the protective gear. If you live in a town where your hospital doesn't have many patients but also it doesn't have much protective gear or ventilators, maybe that puts you toward the end of the list.

So I saw, I forget which senator it was who went on television. It was on Tucker's show, and I like the guy, meaning that I liked his attitude. And his attitude was he was 70, was just turning 70. You can remind me in the comments, I mean if you saw the show, who the politician was. It was congressman or senator, I can't remember. And he was saying you know that the grandparents are willing to take a risk to get the economy going. So he was saying hey you know if I can be part of the productive economy, I'm 70, I'm at risk, I'm gonna take the risk. And he was making the argument that grandparents would rather die than ruin the world for the young. And he was saying look you know if I got to die to keep the economy going so that my grandkids have a place to live, I'll sign up for that.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Yes it was a Texas AG Ken Paxton. People are telling me in the comments. Here's my comment: wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Everything about that is wrong. I love the attitude. I like the guy, Dan Patrick I guess in Texas. So my appreciation of the person is sky-high because literally he just said I will risk my life for other Americans. I love the guy. But it's the wrong strategy.

Do you want your 70 year olds clogging up the ICU rooms and ventilators because they were brave? Let's be honest. And how much of the 70 year olds adding to the economy, including Dan Patrick? Dan Patrick can work from home. It's that kind of a job. I don't want him to go into work. Do you want Dan Patrick to take up an ICU room if he can stay home and work from there? No you don't. So his bravery, his attitude, I love. I love that guy. His strategy? Dead wrong. Dead wrong.

We should discourage brave grandparents because they're gonna be brave. You know there's a lot of people, you know they're veterans, people went through the war, people have done everything, people not afraid to die. But we're not gonna let them die, which means that they would take up hospital space for other people. Bad, bad idea to let the 70 year old say anytime soon until we got a much better handle on this. So Dan Patrick, that's I believe that was it. Love you man. Totally love you. But it's not the strategy we need. It's not good for us.

All right, let's see. Somebody's trying to hack one of my social media accounts this morning, and the reason I know is because I keep getting password change requests. And I thought to myself, couldn't you fix that by telling me what their guesses were? If somebody is trying to hack you know just guess my password, and I get these notices, and somebody's trying to do it, should they also tell me what the guesses were? Because if the guesses look random I'm gonna be like they're, so you maybe somebody thought it was the wrong account or something. But if the guesses are anywhere in the neighborhood of like something that looks like somebody knows me, I want to shut that crap down right away.

So this is just a message to social media people. If you co
