Yep, flakes flying around this AM when I went out to get coffee. 32 degrees and we’re a few weeks from Memorial Day. Someone didn’t get the memo about global warming lol.

They can't arrest everyone, and any law which is widely disobeyed is soon abandoned. ***** the shamers. And ***** the politicians who feed off the shamers' fears to lock us all up like animals. The bold is the root of the problem here. Last I checked, the US is still a Republic. So it doesn't matter the level of government, state, local, federal; it still takes a vote of the legislature, then a signature from the executive, to create a law. Early on, everyone was promised a couple weeks, then another couple, and so on. In the beginning, people were like, well, okay, it's only a couple weeks.... But now they are exercising their God given rights, and rebelling against tyrannical government. You know, ALL of us are taught that there are 3 branches of government. I suggest everyone read the Constitution again because there is another that is We the People... Topic for another discussion someday, but there was a reason CJ Jay brought about jury nullification. It was to assure We the People had final say in all laws.

GETTOTHE50 Posted May 10, 2020 Posted May 10, 2020 I have mixed emotions about opening up the workforce again. people who suffer from chronic diseases like hypertension and diabetes are much more susceptible to death by the virus than just a normal healthy person. still need to be very careful. 1

Those people for the most part have a poor lifestyle and terrible diet heavy in sugar. The country should not be locked down because those people can't control themselves. Given the real tyranny and hypocrisy that has revealed itself, I find that the people who now want to control everyone else in totality can't even control themselves. The irony alone will kill more people than the virus itself. 1
ALF Posted May 10, 2020 Posted May 10, 2020 California should make Telsa a test case to open . Have pay protection and pension for family if a worker dies . I would hate to see another AOC loss of jobs.

Indeed and they should do everything they can to protect themselves and the local, state and federal governments should provide all the resources necessary so that they are better guarded. 3

It’s clear that their are many elements of the California government that view corporate entities such as Tesla as a force for evil. He should go somewhere that will accept them with open arms and embrace their innovation. California and New York have too many loons with outsized voices and influence and these businesses are at risk if they continue to do business in these states. Even though Bernie didn’t win the nomination, he did win the minds and hearts of progressives. It will only get worse moving forward. 1 1

Can you imagine that they don’t want a guy making electric cars? The Left is wound up so tight being ‘concerned’ about EVERYTHING that they don’t know which concern to prioritize. Hilarious! 1 2

They have to go through HR and all our offices have to approve it. I have plenty of space and I have five staff already in private offices and five more client meeting rooms that will not be used in the foreseeable future and an open floor plan to move work stations. So plenty of ability for social distancing. I’m in Orange County and we have offices in LA, San Diego and Riverside Counties (and other states). This county by county thing is asinine. Now we’ve been deemed essential so that could be the difference but still. We have to start getting back to it. 3

Some of those people are susceptible to death by doing/eating/drinking things that you and I take for granted. If they mange their disease regularly they are used to being careful. 4

From what I can tell many have come to prefer working from home. And I know I’ve enjoyed being able to drive on the freeways!

Last weekend it was Palm Springs this weekend to Long Beach for a picnic and a walk around Naples Island. I’m going to hate when the traffic comes back.

OTOH, my college age daughter is a swim coach for "summer league" here in VA. $4K for the summer. Have about 300 kids during a normal summer.Even if allowed to open, her pool board has decided agaisnt having a team this year as some kids may live in homes where there are high risk folks like you mention, and 1) the kids could be a carrier, and 2) those folks would not be able to watch in person... So, instead they received a PPP and she is getting paid to do nothing this nothing this summer. Extend that out to general populace...we would never get back to normal We as a society have now deemed the needs of the very, very few greater than the good over the overwhelming vast majority...man what a sad state. 16 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: Same here in the Inland Empire Chef.

I wish the state would do this. Those N95 masks that are so hard to buy? The state should give them (sell them) to doctors and pharmacies. Have the pharmacies distribute them with insulin. Give doctors (especially endocrinologists) cases of them for the most vulnerable. Have some sort of distribution to people who really could use them. There is no reason the average under-60-year-old needs to be housebound. But, people who are immunocompromised, have diabetes, are over 70, etc should have access an N95 mask (and gloves) that might aid them against contracting COVID-19. And those people might want to stay home until the summer heat and humidity has a chance to work (for those wondering, there was a slide show at a presser a few weeks back that showed how heat and humidity kills the virus).

Would you happen to know what the cost of them is now? I saw on tv they were selling 10 paper masks for $30 plus s&h. Many seniors can't even afford that
