  1. With no productivity everyone will starve to death no matter how much money one has. Prices on food is starting to go up in Canada due to a shortage. For too many people they cannot see beyond money. They somehow feel that goods magically appear. But if no one is working there is no productivity. And giving away money just creates inflation.

  2.  @xaenon  is the disease a threat? There is evidence that it is not that deadly. Also, the idea of the lock down was to one, flatten the curve, two, find out more about it, and three, create relief for our healthcare industry. We have all three. Every state has seen either stagnant or dropping number of new cases a day even with more testing. We know more about this virus. And all across the nation there are empty hospital beds. We should start reopening. I am not saying open the flood gates, but slowly. That way we get the economy going but still limit the spread. And even with a spread we have open hospital beds and resources to take it on. You are making sound like I want the flood gates to be open, I don't. My state just opened with restrictions such as 50% capacity in restaurants for example. GA has been open for two weeks now and their number of new cases a day has been dropping despite more testing. "If a rich person is telling you that it's mandatory that you do X, Y, and Z despite the risks.... that person isn't sharing the risk, but will be the one to reap ALL of the rewards." It is not that easy. Take this hair salon owner. None of her workers actually work for her as they are independent contractors. They work at her place but they are self employed. Also, many small business owners actually care about their workers. And most want to work. You make it sound like it is an us vs them mentality when it really isn't in the case you are pointing out. It is on the left. Remember, Barrack Obama can go golfing but his wife tells everyone to stay home. Chris Cuomo can call other fools for wanting to go to the park and back to work where he is making millions just voicing his opinion. The mayor of Chicago can get her hair cut if she wants. The governor of IL enforces a stay at home order while his wife go to FL. "Since we can't bank on a vaccine or cure in the near future (it could happen, but it's not prudent to expect it) , reopening for business will be necessary, but it MUST be done carefully... WE have to evaluate and manage the risks." Which is what we are doing. It is what GA did for the past two weeks and they have seen a drop in cases even though testing has nearly doubled. ""Just Be A Soldier And Go Back To Work" is NOT a viable plan when it's YOUR ass in the line of fire." It isn't like that. Your viewpoint is "be a good comrade and stay home while government tells you want to do and how to live". I am excited for the nation to be opening up, after seeing the success in GA. Come August things will be mostly back to normal except for in NY where Cuomo messed up that state.

  3. Short term vs long term gains.

  4. So sad to read the comments and realizing how many communists we have that are willing to bow down to the government without question in the name of "safety". Luckily I feel most are consolidated in NY and NJ, two states doing the worse with this virus. So while the rest of the nation opens up, and continues to seeing drops or stagnant in daily cases despite new testing, those two states can continue to live in fear and bow down to their rulers.

  5. How is she selfish and stupid?

  6. This isn't a small sacrifice. The economy is falling apart which can lead to more deaths compared to the virus. Right now we have a meat shortage and soon to be a food shortage. Why? Because people are not working. When there is no production there are no goods and services to go around and thus even more people will starve. So no, this is not some "small sacrifices" but huge ones.

  7. GA has been open for two weeks and despite more testing their number of cases per day has actually dropped.

  8. Yep, bow down to your overlords without any questions.

  9. It is beyond that. Right now productivity is down where we are seeing a shortage of a lot of supplies. Even if the government gives out money it does not matter if there are no goods to buy. We have to start producing again. If not we will be screwed in two ways, a virus and no food.

  10. They are communist. Every day Gov. Cuomo gives a press conference showing pretty slides and the people of NY listen and obey without question.
