Governors and mayors across the country have taken unprecedented action by restricting the movement of healthy individuals, closing places of worship and public spaces, and interfering with business by ordering them to close their doors.
There is a growing realization that government-imposed orders intended to contain the spread of the coronavirus are creating widespread devastation.
One in four Americans has lost either part or all of their income since the end of March, and the GDP has fallen by 24 percent.
US data shows that the case fatality rate might be as low as 0.1% in other words, akin to the mortality rate of a severe seasonal flu. Ninety percent of those who are severely affected have an underlying health condition.
Cases in which COVID-19 are merely suspected to be a cause of death are being recorded as official COVID-19 death
Americans are wondering how long they will be required to comply with orders that force healthy individuals to indefinitely stay at home and businesses deemed as non-essential to stay closed.
Individuals are capable of taking precautions to avoid COVID-19. Those who are vulnerable or who have COVID-19 should stay home, but healthy individuals need to return to work so that our jobs, our economy and our well-being are not destroyed.
Its time to stand and request commonsense policies that protect the vulnerable while restoring individuals livelihoods and mitigating the repercussions of an indefinite shutdown. Email your governor and mayor NOW to urge them to lift the stay-at-home orders for healthy individuals.

I’m not in the habit of ‘asking’ my elected reps for anything - I make demands based on our Constitution and warn them of the consequences.
And your archbishop
No way!
Even if or when the opening bell sounds, . I will still be practicing social distancing for several weeks after.
Safety First!
I contacted my state representative, state senator, and US congressman. My message was put Texas back to work. We lost our jobs. My husband’s business is closed and will probably not recover and we still have to pay property taxes and contractual obligations, with no adjustment for being out of work for a month now. I got an immediate call back from my state representative. He said flood the capital and representatives with the back to work message. He said the toll this is taking on healthy people is worse than the virus. Suicides are up x4.
Trump announced the plan tonight for opening up the country. There’ll be plenty of posts about it. States have to meet the criteria in Stage One before moving on to Stage Two. After that comes Stage three. He said that some states (Wyoming, North Dakota, others) are ready to open up right now. At least we’re on our way.
Good luck when you go grocery shopping.
In MI we will open Nov 4, 2020.
Health Freedom for everyone! There are plenty of unhealthy practices that never shut the economy down. Daily carb loading to obesity, totally fine. Unprotected multi partner anal sex? No problem, schools can stay open and we can still have concerts. Mountain climbing without rope? Oooh, extreme sports, cool, hair salons do not need to close.
Freedom to choose our risk levels. We will all be careful around seniors and immune deficient neighbors.
The murderous leftists in charge of my county and my state want me dead. They will do all they can to hurt us and pretend they are doing it for our own good. They are evil.

I’ve had some dust ups with a local mayor on Facebook. Had being the key word. He won’t come out and play with me anymore.
Lawyers are going to bankrupt come cities. You watch....
Why would I do that when the number of confirmed cases here is rising about 10% per day?
CT here—total disaster area—we may be the last state to open...
Then sit in front of your computer and starve to death, coward. You aren’t worth a patriot’s time.
Because of the arrogant dictator like tyrannical criminal negligence of these governors running these blue states who knowingly did not prepare for an emergency of any kind is now subjecting THIER FAILURES to govern on the people. Being dead last on a list to open rests solely on their arrogant refusal and now they demand we obey because they know we know they were caught with their pants down, RECALL FAILURE TO GOVERN
Thats fine. People need to be able to make the choices they want to take, or not take.
Its why we’ve had it with these people hyping this up to the point they can push these orwellian goals of theirs, and believe me they have exploited this, and its time we the people say NO MORE.
And nix their control plans they have associated with this crap. No mandatory vaccines and No chips, No show me your medical papers nazi bs.
Unfortunately that’s only going to happen here when a tong on the pitchfork is about halfway up Tom Wolf’s nose.
I think we all knew it was/is going to be a fight with the filthy RATS.
only 'asking' needs done is asking the hardware store if they're gonna stock enough rope
At least Dudley Do Nothing Henry took a gigantic leap forward on the millimeter scale and opened boat ramps.
Yay.
My thimble runneth over.
Not a boater, no desire own one either.
