I imagine they are aware of the supporting industries and infrastructure behind the stores.

He had better not take us to that place. We are Americans and we won’t stand for it. I’ll give him until April 1, and will be screaming for our freedom.

One plan kicked around is to isolate the elderly, of which I am one, for a short period of time. Let everyone else be free, open all businesses, begin living life. We will lose our country forever if we allow DS to take away our freedoms. The DS won’t suffer; they’ll be the royal class.

Like that wasn’t the FIRST THING I stocked up on :)

I passed grocery stores that still had toilet tissue, meat and eggs at the time to get to the liquor store.

I still believe I made the right move :)

They are considered a “necessity” This state has lost its mind.

Now excuse me while I go drink breakfast...

This is crazy. We’re sending our country back to a pre-industrial state. ANd for what?

Even if Fauci’s overheated estimate of 100,000 dead were correct, that would be nowhere near causing the damage that is being caused by the shut down of our entire economy and society.

Really? Because the story doesn’t say that. Only drugstores and grocery stores is pretty specific.

It truly saddens me that President Trump is being sucked into this hysteria.

But I’m even more disheartened by the systematic shredding of our Constitution nationwide . . .

It’s textbook Cloward-Piven. In a month the majority of Americans will be begging for AOC style socialism

Leave it up to the states.

There’s no political upside for Trump in causing unemployment.

I’m sure CNN will praise whatever Cuomo or Newsom do.

Republican governors can copy as appropriate.

Dems have dreamed for years about finding an issue that will peel Trump from his base. They’ve found it in the Kung Flu.

Please stop posting this shit. It’s nothing but poisonous speculation designed to alarm people and erode support for President Trump.

the Wall Street Journal has just come out against these dictated shut-down/shut-in orders...

I understand why he may want to do this before things get out of hand and to show “strong” leadership, but it really doesn’t make sense. There are a huge number of counties in the US that still have zero or near zero cases; it isn’t really justified to do a full quarantine of them. The governors of states where things are actually getting out of hand are already instituting quarantines. New York alone is responsible for almost half the cases in the US!

He needs to just quarantine the cities. As in don’t let anyone in or out of the cities. They are cesspools of leftist propaganda anyway.

The only place this country is going from 25%-30% unemployment is AOC style socialism. Unemployment was 25% during the Great Depression. Now with so much of our economy based on the service industry it could go even higher than that.
