I ride my bike a lot and haven't needed a tank of gas since this whole thing started and I'm just shaking my head that everyone is losing their shit because this has been going on for a whole 8 days.
I don't mean to make light of people dying or anything but it just seems like the things I'm seeing in the news makes it seem like it's been forever already. Oil prices spike because tankers have been delayed a week. The administration is acting like we're running out of munitions already. Please! With a trillion dollar budget? I guess the US soldiers death toll is around 13, right? Wouldn't we lose that many in a week during peace time.
Again, not in favor of the war. Not in favor of killing anyone. Not supporting the politics or trying to make light of anything. Just the fact that I've seen a lot of reports that imply that it's been more than a week or so.
