Well, a lot to get to today.

We're going to get to everything COVID-related because we are seeing spikes around the country.

Only certain parts of the country are apparently worth lots of media attention.

Like California, which actually may be seeing the biggest spike by home

county of L.A. County is now the number one county in America in terms of COVID-19 identified

infections. And that's getting ignored in favor of Florida and Texas. We'll get to that in a little bit.

We will also get to a new call for slavery reparations, which of course is not going to settle the

problem because the fact is that a lot of the people who are calling for slavery reparations are not going to suggest that once the reparations have been made to people who had an ancestor who 165 years ago is being held in slavery, that once that reparation is made, that suddenly the problem has been fixed and now we can move on with our lives. None of that is the reality, obviously. We're going to get to the problems with slavery reparations and the very, very bad argument that's being made by Nicole Hannah-Jones, which of course is based and rooted in the idea that America is endemically racist, continues to be endemically racist, and that nothing much has changed in the United States. We'll get to that in a little bit. First, let's talk about

the reality of the markets. The markets are up and down right now. There's so much uncertainty in the markets. And meanwhile, the government is just blowing out the spending, which means at some point they're either going to have to raise taxes or they're going to have to inflate the currency.

Two weeks ago, the Dow dropped 1,700 points in the opening hours because of fear alone, fear of coronavirus, fear of from the Fed, with a gloomy outlook, expected spending of $10 trillion to curb the effect of COVID-19.
