Swine Flu *PANIC* uh not

Texas is going nuts over the 'swine flu'.

Yesterday our local schools shut down and moms were seen running with child in arms from the buildings. Several schools are closing down for a least a few weeks. Sports are canceled. Cinco De Mayo is canceled. Springfest is postponed til June. Walmart had a run on hand cleaner and is sold out. Hosp staff are wearing face masks at all times.

I just don't get it.
The 'flu' kills 35,0000 in America every yr and 'swine flu' has killed how many exactly? The numbers keep changing in Mexico. 1 confirmed death in the US but the poor toddler was from MX and was sick when he crossed the border.

Why is the Gov going nuts over this flu?!

My answer...
more government control!
Panic in the streets calls for martial law. They are already wanting people to line up for 'shots' that might prevent this flu from spreading. Maybe.

It also helps President Obama in his little socialist plan for National Health Care...after all not everyone can afford the 'recommended shots' so well the big ol' nice gov will step up and provide...just don't notice the tax increases to pay for it...after all it is 'free health care'.

And we all know the Gov is just here to help.
