"Similar restrictions were put in place over the weekend in the Philadelphia area and are now in effect for the whole state."
Everyone trying to out dumb the other one
1. Closing public places for two weeks to deal with a viral pandemic is absolutely pointless.
2. He probably figured that two weeks is the maximum period of time the restrictions can be in place before people tell him to eff himself and start going about their normal daily lives again.
3. He already knows the impact of this pandemic is going to be minimal, and hes looking to make an appearance on MSNBC two months from now and claim that his emergency orders saved the lives of 500 million people in Pennsylvania alone.
Hey PA, how are enjoying a governor that has turned out to be an uber liberal control freak? How long before this clown declares the Republican Party outlawed to stop the spread of coronavirus. I kid, but seriously, this guy is trending toward using this for his ultimate wish list that he could never get passed in the legislature.
Remember, the only branch of government that matters to the left is the one they control.
Golf Courses?
All State Liquor Stores closed too. That won’t go over well in PA.
Comrade Wolf has no authority to close anything NOT government owned or operated. IF a business closes, it will be 100% voluntary.
Panicking!
My brother headed directly to the state store after work...total mad house. Waited in line with all the infected for almost an hour to get alcohol
Seriously? He should really save such measures for a situation when 3/4 of the state's counties are in COVID trouble (either community spread or in their own shutdowns).
Teach you people to elect a Democrat for governor (although Hogan (RINO-MD) isn't much better).
Yesterday I took my grandson to the range. He’s 14 and has only fired a shotgun - this was his first time firing a pistol.
The MD governor had put in place restrictions on businesses that have large groups - no more than 50 at a time. When we arrived, there was a line out the door, one line for the range and the other for the gun shop.
It didn’t take us long to get inside. It was weird having so few people there. I let him use my 9mm semi and I also rented a 38 special revolver. He kinda liked the 9mm better, less kickback, heh. Overall, he did really well; nice grouping on the target.
Afterwards, we checked out the gunshop. Holy mackerel, the place was depleted! The salesman said people have been snatching up guns & ammo.
Nonessential businesses. Not essential except in the economy. Nonessential except for the business owner.
This is the liberate democrat economic warfare
This is about a communist takeover.
Phase 1 was gaslighting the sheeple into thinking they will die without government intervention.
Phase 2 is control the people and shutdown their businesses.
Phase 3 is government providing payment for business rents and payroll.
Phase 4 is the government simply stating that since the government already pays for everything that the government now owns the businesses.
Communism complete: Total control of the sheeple and a complete takeover of commerce.
The liberal States of Washington, Pennsylvania, California, and Colorado have implemented martial law, selecting which businesses must close and that the people must stay indoors.
