Drat, I didn't come up with a perfect plan, with no possible hypothetical what-if responses. Back to the drawing board. It's a solution to keep corporations that grow big enough to cause societal issues, having grown that big thr

The only time "N95" was uttered was last year, when we were being told: 1. Masks aren't needed; 2. Don't buy masks, healthcare workers need them. It's unfortunate that we didn't go back to talking about proper
