It ain’t just democrats. Maryland’s RINO Governor has jumped in. While he’s done a great job in many respects, his inner totalitarian comes out too often.
Maryland has three major water reservoirs. There is lots of recreation around them. They just shut off the entire area to hiking, horseback riding, kayaking, fishing etc.
These are all for the most part solo activities. Worse, last week millions were laid off, mostly in the service sector many of whom will be unable to weather the storm. Fishing is a means of getting free food and it’s now illegal.

Blue state governors and demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of how the economy works. (Murphy may have been CEO of Goldman-Sachs but I've never been convinced that what Goldman-Sachs does has much to do with the productive economy.)
A business might be deemed "non-essential" by gov't but provide an essential component to manufacture a ventilator or a chemical component of a drug that treats the disease.
Yet another reason to move your business to a Red state.

Tunnel vision. Totally focused on the virus, as if everything else can be put on hold.
Idiots.

Mark Levin was all over this on his show last night. On his Sunday night Fox News show his guests are going to be Mike Pence and Dr. Fauci. I suspect both are in for some very pointed questions.

I remember the pictures of nearly empty store shelves, taken in eastern bloc countries; and commented about them to whomever would listen at Walmart yesterday.

I’m here in NH waiting for some warmth to come so we can get out in our gardens. Gotta go get a dumptruck load of composted manure to put in the gardens soon before the ground thaws otherwise I’ll be up to my axles in mud.
Most everything in NH is still open, the Governor hasn’t told people to panic and stay in their homes. For the most part it is business as usual up here.

“Last week most businesses were still operating albeit at reduced capacity”
That was sensible. But secret Nazis can’t control their overwhelming urge for total control.
