Yeah, because that's what's happening... What does the scenario of opening before it's safe and reigniting the pandemic look like for all of the these starving, impoverished, bored people?

You think my many unemployed friends need to go back to work because they’re BORED? Yes, I’m sure you’re right. They were all working last month because they’d run out of crossword puzzles. The level of unawareness is stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is why, if you don’t feel foolish, you should. That is the problem with pointing fingers at people without knowing anything about their lives. You explained your situation and I can see why you made that choice, given where you were living. I might do the same in that situation. Don't take things so personally. I even cited the idea of locale in my post, though I (now correctly) assumed that you live in a low crime neighborhood, at least with respect to violent crime. Still, there are many, many folks all over the map who use the same exact reasoning with no basis for it at all. It's the most common answer given always.

But surely there are others who want to go back to work and who want to reopen the economy for different reasons. More fake logic from fake news SoCal Deek.

Some are desperate. Some don't believe the science. And some are duped by the President. There's no one-size fits all answer. And there's no perfect answer to the horrible problems that we face as a country. On my end, the smart money says that we have to hang tight for a little while longer for both the greater good and the long-term good. But I get the struggle, I honestly do, and I get the frustration of those who are watching retirement savings evaporate and debt mount. It's horrible. Tell that to my daughters best friend and her husband who’re five months pregnant and need the jobs to pay for expenses! I’ll let her know you said for her to ‘hang on a little while longer’ while we kill off her job for good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we reopen prematurely we run the very real risk of killing off the business so there's no job in a couple of months.

Times are tough right now. They may get a lot tougher for everyone if idiots rule the day. Suck it up and do what needs to be done. The rest of us are. It's all crap. They think they're being patriotic, but they're unknowingly acting against their own self interest. What a ***** surprise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
