I remember a restaurant asking us, before seating, for our phone number as it was REQUIRED by the State.

We turned around and left.

A list of “what was the worst” might be good:

* Firing people from jobs because they wouldn’t take an unproven DRUG for an overhyped virus
* The Shutting down of “non-essential businesses” - which were absolutely essential for those that owned them (plus the stupidity of then making everyone go only to the SAME stores)
* Putting infected people into nursing homes while knowing the elderly were the most vulnerable
* Denying MEDICAL CARE if you hadn’t had the shot
* Continuously asserting that “masks work” when they clearly don’t (leading to people being assaulted and treated as less than human if they weren’t wearing one)
* Politicians that benefitted from it all have never been made accountable.

None of this aligns with our Constitution or our concepts of freedom. All done without any authority, done just by saying the magic word “emergency”. I’m surprised Biden didn’t extend his powers by just issuing “emergency powers” in everything D’s don’t like (guns, energy, etc.).

It’s insane to look back on - I think we tend to block it out.
