Why Is I t an either/or choice? Where does the government derive the power to shut everything down? Or require everyone to wear a mask? Since when do Governors acquire dictatorial powers abolishing Constitutional rights? Where does this end?

Mayo Clinic forced to furlough and/or reduce pay of 30,000 employees.. …Mayo Clinic’s medical departments are mostly quiet..

Hospitals on the Rochester campus are operating at 35 to 40 percent capacity, and surgical volume is at 25 to 30 percent of expected.

Other health care institutions, like Olmsted Medical Center, have taken similar steps.

I get your point, but the fact is there is no constitutional provision whereby this governor can force you to wear a face mask against your will. Unless they actually invoke martial law which these cowards will not do. I say cowards because they know the baggage that comes with the declaration, but in the absence of such a declaration they are simply saying the constitution is meaningless.

Additionally, it is absolutely fine if a PRIVATE business says “DO not come in my shop without a mask” as they have the right to make such a demand in their private spaces.

The high death forecast was a reaction to the federal bounty on corona deaths - $39K per? Add in the typical government bureaucrat tendency to be a nazi and bizzare rules will appear; all dead people died of corona, and let’s keep the illegals coming in.

Depending on how the ‘emergency powers act’ is put together by the state legislators, they might have the legal authority for certain things while the declaration is in effect. And it can be so broadly written that it is simply a mess. Which most of them are. You can’t (shouldn’t) just toss out civil rights. By the way, anyone heard a peep from the aclu?

The unstated purposes:

1) Dog-whistle obedience training. Easy to see who is “compliant” and who needs “re-education”

2) Darn near impossible to wear a mask with a runny nose...so it will force the sick to STAY HOME (which they ought to do anyway, but without government orders)

All this mask wearing is nothing more than “feel good” posturing. They way they’re being worn by the general public. they sure aren’t going to be effective for anything.

If they require that in Phoenix there will be people dropping of heat stroke. You can barely breathe in a mask when it’s onstage a hundred or so, if they make you wear one in June or July when temperature can be 110 to 120 people will die.

How about wearing our underwear on the outside so the cops can see if it’s clean? This is bs. All of it.

I’ll claim to be a follower of faceism.
It’s against my religion to cover my face under God.

Why not?
