The Left is like a three-year-old who throws a tantrum and is happy until Mommy and Daddy finally has had enough and gives away their toys to Goodwill as they had threatened. Then parents did this once they had finally had enough with the tantrums.

small businesses being driven toward extinction are a key component of the GOP base

They think they're hurting the GOP? Heck, small biz is also a key component of their own state and local tax bases. Oh well, there's a phrase, a proverb, out there called "cut off your nose to spite your face". That's how they roll, they're so full of rage they can't even discern what they are doing to themselves.

I hope this is the final divorce between the working man and the democrat party. If so, the demographics will be forever changed against them.

The only people who could even POTENTIALLY benefit from this thing are anti-Trump people who want this to be a huge disaster that pushes Trump out of the White House.

But that isn’t going to happen.

Which means this disaster has only losers and no winners. And the people who suffer from this are going to see that the Democrats handled this far worse than the Republicans. November isn’t that far away. People will remember.

I’m going to disagree with the author on the point that there’s going to be any serious move to homeschooling after this.

And I speak as one half of a couple who homeschooled a child.

First off the number of parents were not involved in their kids and then number of parents who want public schools for daycare and free meals constitutes a majority of the kids in public school, in my opinion. And then add to that of course to special-needs kids.

When we home-schooled we did the math and the math said that a working mother and the cost of child care and other factors make the working mother proposition not nearly as economical as it appears on the surface. I won’t even go into all the details, but you can trust me on that one. Most families with two working parents can’t factor all that in and think that they’re really coming out ahead economically. Yes we made some economic sacrifices but nothing to the degree that people think they’re going to make with one income.

And of course isn’t some economic sacrifice worth it for the well-being of your child?

Anyway, we will see how this all plays out. I am very skeptical that we’re going to see any measurable shift into homeschooling. I would love to see it, though.

If there is consumer demand, small business will revive to meet it. The dems have no clue how close to the cliff family businesses operate.

I’m wondering how many organs of the left are on life support. Bankrupt but getting an infusion of money from some rich America-hating leftist so they can keep printing their propaganda.

One of the good consequences, another being the decline of public education. Homeschool!
