It’s Tuesday morning and day two of week six of the Commie Bat Virus lock down. The shut down of the economy is rapidly approaching recession territory across the globe, starting with the historic sell off of oil on Monday as prices dropped below $0 a barrel for the first time ever.
There’s a lot of great news out there, but this development is so significant that I’m giving you a set of four links to the story. America is the world’s largest oil producer / exporter, but we’re not immune to circumstances beyond our control. It didn’t help that Russia and Saudi Arabia flooded the markets with cheap oil just as the Coronavirus hit. It could lead a sensible person to wonder about the timing of all this.
If you want to just skip the doom and gloom (and who could blame you?), the last link in this morning’s link jam is a story about Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh who recently cited Roe v. Wade in an opinion about overturning precedent.
