Great Culling = Great Depression with massive culling of vulnerable industries and businesses and significant amounts of culling of those in the population with existing health problems.
A major international culling event in a capitalist system in 2020 caused by a failure of the capitalist system to be prepared for an epidemic. The Great Culling of 2020 it was activated by a epidemic. In the US in 2018 the White House dismantled the National Security Council’s global health security office it opened the doors as wide as possible for the private market sector to take responsibility for future epidemics and show their stuff.
Most people did not have a stomach for the capitalistic culling process in which businesses and industries that cannot survive and adapt are allowed to fail. These people are especially uncomfortable when those businesses that provide their job fail and go bankrupt. The masses also get queasy about job security in general, losing accumulated wealth, and being able to pay their mortgages or rent, or afford health care insurance when they need it most.

The Great Culling of 2020 is a great test of how a capitalistic system solves market failure. The biggest problem will be when there are demands for government involvement in the private sector, especially when people start dying in mass, industries and commercial businesses start failing and people are left in self quarantine without jobs and income.
Sadly the capitalistic system is never allowed to allow only the survival of the fittest, leaving the rich and powerful with another lost opportunity.

Fencing is the actions of the go between for a thief and buyer of the thief's stolen goods. The buyer may unwittingly buy stolen goods from a fence in yard sales, flea markets, through classified ads, or other traditional markets. A shrewed form of fencing is when the fencer poses as a fence for stolen goods and sells cheap illegal imitations of name brand goods at high prices under the pretence that they are more expensive legit versions.
Pawn shops are no longer very good for fencing since the persons selling to them are finger printed, and there is strict accounting of all the goods sold.

A person that feels uncomfortable and lacks a rational understanding or revulsion of people with transgender people, especially those with a real diagnosis of gender dysphoria (distress caused by the discrepancy between a person's physical gender and their gender identity).
There are as many different transphobic types of people as there are transgender people. Some transphobic individuals have a real fear and negative emotional reaction to transgender people, whereas others have a more outward hatred and rage towards transgender people. Many people who are considered transphobic have had little contact with transgender people and so may act stupidly, make light of the encounter by joking or teasing, or lack political correctness, or make insensitive comments but are not clinically transphobic. Some transphobic people claim it is immoral, social perversion, a ruse for voyeuristic people, or claim it is against their religion to rationalize their transphobic behavior. Many transphobic people can quickly learn more about gender dysphoria and to accept it without responding negatively.

A poorly designed roundabout; eg poor design, confusing signage/road markings, mixing bikes and pedestrians into the traffic in precarious ways. The problems is made worse when many drivers are not from the local area and are not be familiar with the intersection.
We are about to enter the crashabout, don't assume the other drivers, bikers and pedestrians have a clue as to what to do.

Because of the rampant rise in cyber crime, more and more employees are making the excuse they did not read the attached memo because they thought it was a BEC attack.

White collar workers with many of the same characteristics of trailer trash, but which take it to a higher level of cultural depravity. Developers who demand perverse subsidies for creating urban sprawl, too big to fail and jail bankers who demand bonuses when they take down whole economies, flamboyant and racist professional sports team owners who feels entitled to publically funded grandiose stadiums.
The tailored trash claimed to be self made millionaire, but instead was on public welfare in the form perverse public subsidies, and entitlements to public infrastructure for developments that consumed nature and spit out urban sprawl.

A method of keeping tract of the contacts a person with an infectious disease has, to prevent the spread of the disease. Tracing can be used to find the original source of the disease by looking at one's contacts before they were infected, and after they were infected to see who they may have spread the disease to. Once individuals who had contacts with the disease have been identified they are tested for the disease, to stop them from disease spreading behavior till their condition has been identified. If individuals are found to be infected with the disease they continue to stop any disease spreading behavior, (e.g. isolation) and are treated, so they don't spread the disease to others.
People in charge of public health and the spreading of VD, have being using contact tracing long before those fighting the lasted pandemic used it.
