Well, duh, I know it's the government inspectors/bureaucrats who enforce these stupid rules and not the restaurants. The restaurants want to stay in business and do what they do, prepare and serve food to the public for a profit. The government just wants to throw their power around.

I asked the owner of the only restaurant in town why she didn't enforce the county's mask rule. She said they can fine her but not her customers and she wasn't going to play mask cop for the county commissioners.

The only people I see wearing masks in her place, which is on a major north-south highway, are people traveling through to points further south and apparently they have been wearing them in their cars, which is another stupid thing to do.

People can be convinced to do whatever the government tells them to do when they don't think for themselves.

I live in the rural South too. My wife and I live on a farm in Florida and raise beef cattle. Only the hardcore sheeple wear masks around here. I have personally given the government a massive HELL NO myself in not complying with any of their rules. I don't wear a mask. I don't social distance. And I don't stay locked down in my home. I never wear them into the local stores and no one says a thing to me.

I'm in my mid-70s and am not getting the vaccine. By all accounts I read in the media, I should be dead by now. And yet of all the hundreds of thousands of people who get this covid and have died from it according to the government, it's awfully ironic that I don't know a soul who has tested positive, gotten sick or died from the covid. Why is that?

It's because they have been inflating the numbers for covid cases and deaths just like they are now with the purchasing power of our dollars with their mishandling of the economy. Phuque 'em.
