Cuomo signs NYC restaurants' death warrant: Governor says he won't allow city to reopen indoor dining because it 'doubles amount of bars and there's no one to enforce the rules' - so how come other major cities are managing?

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday said he would not reopen indoor dining in New York City despite the infection rate being less than one percent for weeks in a row now because, he said, it would double the number of bars currently open and there is no one to enforce social distancing standards.

The reasoning came after a conglomerate of bar and restaurant owners sued the state for $2billion in damages, claiming they were being unfairly shackled and stopped from making money.

New York City - which has more bars and restaurants than any other city in the US - remains the only metropolis in the world that is yet to resume indoor dining.

Mass civil disobedience, combined with mass jury nullification is the only answer.

A date needs to be organized and spread widely.

Broadway and restaurants are a big part of the city's economy...much bigger than what one might think.

the problem is they are not using it for public use. Keyword in there is USE.

If the bar/restaurant is closed...nothing is being of public use.

Coumo thinks that New Yorkers will blame Trump for this.
He really does

I said, on another thread, yesterday, that it’s as if these Govs/Mayors don’t even fear being voted out....as if they’re confident they’ll either be cheated in, or....there won’t be elections for them to have to worry about.

A lot of people believe ‘how go CA and NY, so goes the rest of the country’.

What is the end goal of these two states/Govs, to put SO MANY businesses and PEOPLE out of work??

What kind of living h3ll are they trying to create?

So, say hundreds of thousands of their citizens escape.....then what??

I really want to hear Gruesome Newsom and CommieCuomo’s end game, on this.

SO many other states...and countries....have opened up, yet here they are dictating the end of livelihoods, for so many.

Maria B and David Asman, on FoxBiz, were both lamenting about this, this morning. They both sounded in shock. They didn’t have an answer.

Anyone have an answer?

Vote stupid, pay the price.

Nicely put.

I used to think even New Yorkers weren't so worthless and asininely stupid as to accept anything the Dems gave them. I was wrong. A little complaining and then "I'm voting Dem again. Have voted Dem all along for years. I'll do it again."

Two possibilities, and they’re not mutually exclusive.

1) Cuomo’s trying to dent the GDP.

2) Cuomo is serving the interests of people who want to buy up some NYC real estate on the cheap.

I thought it was CommieCuomo, himself, that was seen either entering, or leaving, some NY Italian restaurant.

Great possibilities. I wouldn’t put EITHER past ANY Dem.

Also....where are the lawsuits being filed, on behalf of these restaurants, against these Govs??

Where’s the Restaurant Association, on all of this? I haven’t heard a peep.

It would seem some injunctions could be filed, by now.

Just sickening.

A few Saturdays ago Cuomo sent out LE and bureaucrats to visit over 1,000 businesses across the state to scare the hell out of them.

All that manpower spent to terrorize the private sector.

Looks like it worked.

Maybe that is what Cuomo wants==that NY’ers pay HIM protection money to open . He is Mafia after all, Pelosi too.
