I think this is the first time, there has ever been a "National Emergency declared by an American president over a seldom fatal virus" , that at worst keeps you in bed for a week and can be treated with over the counter medications... or even rest, some Jerry Springer episodes, a couch, and Vitamin C.
What's wrong with this picture? EVERYTHING!!! When the President declares National Emergency, he is given certain powers. These powers include: The power to seize property, organize and control means of production, seize commodities, assign military forces abroad, regulate the operation of private enterprise, restrict travel, seize and control ALL transportation and communication, INSTITUTE MARTIAL LAW, and control the lives of United States citizens.
I would understand how such powers might be necessary, in situtations such as foreign invasion, massive ebola outbreak, massive earthquakes, suddenly 9,000 tornados strike the country, we're getting pelted by astroids, nuclear meltdown, zombie apocolypse, or maybe something like that REAL Spanish Flu pandemic in 1918 that killed 50 million people. This is strain less common and deadly than regualr seasonal flu! STATE OF NATIONAL EMERGENCY declared over a disease that I have only heard of two cases of, through other people who i know have no reason to lie. (If you know of someone who has caught or has the Swine Flu please let me know... so I can have a bigger list of people I know who know people who have caught it.)
Even if it was a serious threat... how is this being predicted!? How is Obama and the maintream media predicting a massive outbreak!? I wasn't aware we had that kind of technology! If we do that's cool! I'd love to have my own "Pandemic Barometer" at some point. What's ridiculous is that there's no sign of an actual pandemic, no way to prove one, but the government can use the media to pump fear into our hearts, and trust this charismatic young President who has a way with words to the point of complete annihilation of our LIBERTY!
So now we have a National Emergency, not the Swine Flu one declared by Obama... but instead an emergency of Totalitarian nature. This is disturbing, and why people can't realize that they're Brainwashed Sheep (after a century where people allowing themselves to be brainwashed sheep caused the worst pandemic of unconsciousness and mass murder in human history) is baffling!
