it seems almost counterintuitive for california state government to lock down gyms, salons, and restaurants.

those are three seemingly large subdivisions of the service sector of the state economy.

are they all democrat owned, republican owned, or a mix? what percentages of employees are democrat or republican?

it almost seems to me as if more democrats got put out of business or laid off than republicans with these lockdowns.

it seems to me very unfair to lock down some segments of the economy if we do not know with certainty if the effects are beneficial or if the cure is worse than the disease. with all the economic upending from lockdowns, i would expect the latter.

there seems relatively little or nothing that californians can do to affect the resolution of the 2020 electoral fraud situation (too far away from centers of power on the eastern seaboard and midwest).

however, i am trying to figure out what if anything can be done about lockdowns local to california.

i have personally seen almost no overt personal political activity in my silicon valley neighborhood this year... all silent on the PC front... mysterious...

Bring a camera.
ICU’s and hospitals in our part of Texas are running under capacity, understaffed, and ICU’s are NOT full at all. How do I know? Had surgery in early Septmeber, wife had surgery late November. Maybe we shouldn’t believe our lying eyes?

Local news still pumps out FearPorn.

Weird there are no rules for golf courses. The course where my son works is letting people with EXISTING tee times play, but they are not booking any NEW tee times.

It is utterly ridiculous to lock down golf. You are outside, far from other people, getting your Vitamin D from the sun, and have about zero chance of catching it.

Just imagine if HALF of those 33 million citizens armed up, got in the streets, and told Pelosi’s nephew to go f*** himself.

Just imagine.

“...no one wanting in on this....”

True enough.

But even men with jobs can fight back.

They aren’t at their jobs 24 hours a day.

Thing is, he doesn’t need to have a plan.

Just PSA saying “Wash your hands, cough in a napkin, stay home if sick”

It’s not like this thing is actually a pandemic.

CDC says 2.85 million people(approx) died in 2018

CDC estimates 2.85 will die by December 31st.

Where are the excess deaths?

Yep, got a haircut this morning. The barbershop owner is, quite properly, ignoring the order.

Bill Clinton was a Southern Governor who would move to the center for political survival. Gavin Newsom? He has no idea where it is.

All with no government support, stimulus or unemployment insurance. Food banks out of food, short-term rentals banned again. Evictions start en-masse in January. Repossessions and judgements at record levels.

Look for California’s homeless population to soar.

But that’s what demonrats want.

Myself, unemployed since March. Over 10,000 jobs applied for and CVs sent out.

Maybe 10 interviews since March. And most jobs, 1000 to 3000 candidates/applicants.

Someone posted that they’re trying to destroy the middle class.

Thing is, as I think about it.

This hammering of the economy is actually hurting the lower class.

Make no mistake my income is off 70% but, I am a different animal and will claw my way out of this.

I have either been in sales or owned businesses all my life and am use to ups and downs.

I fear for those who have just one skill set and can’t just move from one job to another

True enough, but the left is now so far out there they don’t need to run as a centrist.

My business has been shut down since March....and so far I see no light at the end of the tunnel...unless it’s a train.
