my mom said no one will have money for food water and power next month how are people suppose to live?

Shame, tell your mom not to stress a lot of people will be without money. We will help one another.

Just keep posting here to let us know what's going on with you and your mom. Those who can help will do so.

Anybody up for some bat-hunting in the next three weeks?

@rpm and @Jamie McKane I owe you an apology. Although the media do spread a lot of fear and make money from it, you were right on this one.......

Much respect. Takes a lot to admit you were wrong.

It's a consumer product, so it should be in the same space as food. That's how I view it (not that I drink).

Imagine 50 million sober people

Will McDonalds still be open?

Essential food supplies will still be open. So yes, they will be

My job continues and I shall be working every day regardless of the lockdown. Only if the internet and power to my home were to cease would I be "pardoned"

Apparently CPF patrols won't be allowed

But security Carries on, would they not fall under security? I hope patrols carry on, they make such a difference in our small community

Your mom needs to calm down and maybe she should go watch the presidents speech.

How old are you? This is not your problem. Just chill and play some fortnite with your buddies, and try not to use all of your mom's toilet paper.
