consider:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My name is Payne, I am a concerned citizen of these United States with mild autism, at this moment the country is in the middle of a pandemic that seems like it\u2019ll get worse before it gets better, on Monday I got told that I wouldn\u2019t be able to come to work until this whole thing blows over, It doesn\u2019t help that I keep hearing scary headlines about this situation, setting off a bunch of irrational thoughts in my head and on top of that I heard that our president is considering a national lockdown which will really get people panicking, I know that China is where this virus first came from but the person I blame for all this is our president, a selfish, entitled jerk who thinks that he can do whatever he wants and there won\u2019t be any consequences for his actions, he should\u2019ve put measures in place to prevent, or at least contain this but instead he blew it off and as usual didn\u2019t listen to anybody about it because he knows everything and he\u2019s always right and everybody else is always wrong, meanwhile people are dying from this disease and even the people who aren\u2019t sick are suffering because like me they\u2019ve been essentially laid off and can\u2019t make money and other people are panicking and buying up a bunch of stuff from the nearby supermarket, it just makes me sad how much the irresponsibility of a few can lead to the the craziness of many, it seems like we\u2019re all going crazy and falling apart when we should be coming together and helping each other get through this time even if we\u2019re not making direct contact with each other, I don\u2019t know how long this will last but I do know we need to stop being afraid and come together to help each other through this really dark time and actually take action against this disease even if it\u2019s only by washing our hands with soap and water.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via
