Quarantines are for the sick, but nobody knows yet who is and who isn’t.

You don’t have a Constitutional right to spread disease and put other people in jeopardy. If you are infected others will choose not to associate with you. The government has an obligation, its only obligation, to secure everybody’s rights, even if it happens to piss you off. Sometimes there are conflicts. They clearly understand that proud spreaders are a threat to the general welfare of the nation. For once they are actually doing the job they are there for, and all we hear is a bunch of whiney losers complaining about their cancelled ski trips. We’re all making sacrifices. Many more so than you. Grow up.

It is not immature for me to assert that the obligation is on the government to reasonably prove that I am sick before they take away my rights.

Get up off the ground.

Class warfare.

“a bunch of whiney losers complaining about their cancelled ski trips.”

Or how about a bunch of college educated, tax paying professionals complaining about decreased hours (doctors and nurses), nurses losing hours because the hospitals in their area are empty, or PTs put on hourly and don’t qualify for this “stimulus” and paying loans, or hairdressers, or wait staff, or so many more.

How about a bunch of people who did everything right and are still getting screwed and left out of this stimulus? My goodness some of you people are so clueless about our economy and the down line. But it’s all just about ski trips for you. Ugh, you’re too stupid to understand.

You’d rather create hysteria and post statistics and preach to your choir with likes and posts cheering you on. And some of us are making way more sacrifices than YOU. But you keep preaching to your choir here and like everything else you’ll be the most screwed and you can take you so called expertise and shove it because you have no expertise other than creating more people like you. Clueless to what’s really happening.

I’ll take my ski trip (non existent) and be on my way.

Seriously, you think the people on this site are more concerned about fantasy ski trips and that’s why we think you’re full of shit? Really?

Having read your homepage you are correct on a whole lot of topics but you are dead wrong on the germ-a-phobe front.

You can’t fight germs by ‘hiding’ from them, they will find you sooner or later, no matter what you do or don’t do.
