Yeah, I’m not doing that. They can shoot me if they need to.
The reason behind this is the tendency for the virus to hit the bars every night. Does it have a problem with alcohol? Next you will have to surrender all your firearms.
And this will accomplish exactly what?
... except maybe divert attention away from good News coming out of China and Trump’s great response.
Nightime curfew won’t make a difference...
Martial Law.. anyone?!
DEFCON Level: Plaid?
You can identify a Progtard DildoCrat because their thoughts and actions will consistently be:
1. Unconstitutional
2. Stupid
The mayor must be infected with the CCP’s authoritarian virus.
I don’t see how this helps. Late night is a good time to visit businesses when there are fewer people around to contract the virus from. Plus, what of the people who work those hours regularly? Too bad?
This is one of those ideas that sounds good to a bureaucrat but, effectively, does nothing positive.
The ultimate irony is that Mayor Ravinder ‘crap for brains’ Bhalla is listed on his web page as a civil rights lawyer.
Yes, you’re only supposed to spread it during the day.
This has nothing to do with the spread of the coronavirus. He is simply using the virus as an excuse to take away people’s freedoms.
I am repeating this same thing on every thread. They are trying to kill the economy. If this keeps up, it will work. The House Bill will do nothing to help all the bartenders, service employees, small business owners, small business employees, movie theaters, broadway you name it all will be economically hurt, and these kinds of ideas will make them hurt even more.
What does a 10pm-5am curfew accomplish anyway? Disease spreads between 5am and 10pm too, no?
Trump had the right idea - not perfect, but on the right track - to declare a tax holiday. A “tax credit” isn’t going to help any business that will not make a profit to apply the credit this year because of all the paranoia keeping people from going out and all these new emergency actions to shutter or limit business activity. It isn’t going to help keep people employed esp hourly workers, sales people, independent operators and people who depend on tips. If this keeps up, businesses (esp small businesses) are going to cut hours or do layoffs. Even if it is just for 4-8 weeks, it will do a lot of harm.
Notice these cities did not declare a “rent restriction” or a “mortgage payment restriction” or an “electric bill restriction”. Everyone’s gotta keep paying their bills while the cities and states are shutting everyone down. It’s an economic disaster in the wings.
And fwiw, this also means that deficits are going to jump across the board - city, state, federal. Much lower income tax revenue. Much lower payroll tax revenue. Much lower sales tax revenue. Much lower capital gains (stock market) tax revenue. We’re gonna have higher deficits no matter what we do - at least a tax holiday will keep a little more money inside the local economies, improve cash flows a little bit for the small business, and prevent the local economies from totally freezing up.
Oh, dear - a tight curfew and bar closings just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. This one could be fun.
What the HELL is a curfew going to accomplish?????
Rats — opportunistic control freaks.
Never been to Hoboken.
Is there anything there that is really worth staying up and out past 10PM?
Or is it a crime-ridden hellhole where you’re probably better staying off the streets?
I’d suggest that that Mayor Ravinder Bhalla decree that there can be NO MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER AT A TIME IN DONUT SHOPS AND CONVENIENCE STORES SUCH AS 7-11.
Will he do that? Not a chance...it wouldn’t advance his clear agenda.
What are they going to be moving on the streets at night when all the civilians are supposedly inside their houses? That’s a question I would have, if you were going to have mass arrests, or military movements, or anything else having streets clear would give you the opportunity to do that under the cover of Darkness
notice that he lets you all out during the day so that you can go to stores to pay state taxes on stuff-
