Should People on Ventilators Go Back to Work?

In a dark joke about prioritizing the economy, Tim asks whether it's inappropriate to expect intubated patients to work, riffs on Chick-fil-A and Lee Greenwood patriotism, and needles Trump's 'churches full by Easter' comment.
- Tim asks whether it's inappropriate to suggest jobs for people on ventilators, arguing the economy is paramount.
- If someone is intubated and medically sedated, he questions whether there's genuinely nothing they could do to work.
- Trump's claim that churches will be full by Easter gets framed as potentially the start of an Easter Massacre.
- Doctors don't truly understand how the virus affects different people—it's unpredictable across healthy, unhealthy, old, and young alike.
- Joe Rogan sent Tim an article showing China lost 21 million cell phone users, which in a surveillance state is a major indicator.
- Chinese mobile subscriptions fell by millions across major carriers in January and February combined.
- Tim speculates whether the missing cell phone users mean China's actual death toll is far higher and they're running 24-hour crematoriums.
- Spain is now reporting more deaths than China, which doesn't make sense if China's official numbers are accurate.
