It’s just the flu, bro.

Challenge is to guess where the lockdown of 2020 will eventually rank among the worst American public policy decisions/initiatives in the past 120 years. How bad will the lockdown be when viewed next to past mistakes?

My list: 1. Everything done in the Great Depression by Hoover and FDR - New Deal, Smoot Hawley, National Industrial Recovery Act(price controls) 2. Lockdown of 2020 3. LBJ’s Great Society 4. 90% marginal tax rates for 18 years post WW2 5. Jimmy Carter’s Department of Education

Obamacare didn’t even make my list but it probably deserves an honorable mention though. So I have the lockdown as much worse than Obamacare.

Still watching for businesses going above and beyond the law. I am seeing it in Texas as businesses are acting stricter than that which is legally required. I guess it is a combination of virtue signaling and CYA protection against legal liability. This will continue until customers punish them for it. But customers won’t punish them until they believe the Wuhan flu is no big deal. In the meantime, customers will continue to get inferior service compared to pre-Wuhan flu levels. Really hoping there will be more businesses that just say stuff it like that hairdresser in Dallas.

I see this post daily, and I still can’t figure out if it’s meant to be invective or praise for the idea that it’s “just the flu.”

The only way that the lockdown can pass FDR, the communist prick that screwed this Country for the past 90 years, is if once we open the country up, we allow our country to again be closed down over a "flare up" in the fall.

I think you have it ranked one position too high, because LBJ's great Society has been destroying the Country for 70 plus years.

The chi-com virus is taken less than 100,000 in America, while LBJ has slaughtered tens of millions and has changed the American family from one man and one woman to whatever.

We have the will to recover, but if by some crazy event, Trump does not win and carry the house and senate, we will tread water for four years and then it will be over.

Under that circumstance, Freedom in America will not celebrate it's 250 years as a Country.

The barbers and beauticians in my area observed the lock down for the first week or so. Arizona denied them unemployment, so they went back to work.
BTW, no covid deaths in our county.

This is what the lockdown is really about - the dems know that they can’t win on ideas, but they do know that they can win by cheating. Enter “mail-in” ballots, where no chain of custody exists between the actual voter and the tabulation of votes.

“Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.”

That’s a decent list you have. I’m 77 yo and have lived through them all, except FDR’s reign. Other government boondoggles have included the DHS and TSA, the Rules of Engagement in Vietnam, allowing George Sonos to immigrate to America, ad nauseam. We’ll know where to rank the Great Lockdown after 11/04/2020, or the next pandemic, whichever comes first. 🇺🇸
