The state closed us down. The one that should bear the burden is at least in my case the state of Texas. Abbot got his little taste of being a tyrant and should be the one feeling that wrath.
Did South dakota shut down with insane restrictions? Nay. Should they bear the burden of the other states in tax dollars? Nay. Just like if texas had stayed open and were now expected to foot the bill for California.
We have all felt the pain of this ridiculous nonsense but I lay the blame squarely where it belongs, on the state’s and the people that live in them. The fed govt surely is responsible for supporting the fear campaign that started this mess however they were not responsible for the actions of the states.
Conservatism 101: if you got your hand out you don’t get it yet.
And yes I do realize you are likely being sarcastic, however I know many that do feel that way.
