Governor shuts down bars
When did it become OK for the government to shut down businesses? No one finds this even a little disconcerting? What happened to personal responsibility?
:duck: I’ll get out of the way of the slings and arrows now |
the lack of personal responsibility (wearing masks and social distancing)
increased covid19 cases and required shutting down the worst offenders. |

Yes, I find it very concerning. I also found it darn near criminal to shut down small businesses like clothing stores, sporting goods stores, electronic stores because they were non-essential while allowing Walmart to reap the benefit by selling anything they wanted. I can’t imagine how many small businesses have and will go bankrupt because they could not quickly adopt to mail order and WEB sites. Yes, Amazon had already gone a long way in displacing many small businesses, but that was through consumer choice, not government mandate.
While the government has the legal right to shut down businesses for the sake of public health I believe that they made grievous mistakes in what they did and how they did it and I sent serval letters to the Governor stating as much. |
My experience with writing to Desantis is no response. Not even an acknowledgement from his office recognizing a constituent contact.
I have written representatives most of my life time. His void of total lack of response is a first! |
I assume that would include the walk up bars/kiosks in the town squares if they still plan to start the town square entertainment in early July?

YOURS WILL!!!!! That's the way it works!!! You are protecting others from yourself....thus helping reduce the spread. One more time....the issue of staying home is not coincident with being afraid!!! It is the smart thing to do for some and should not be labeled "afraid". |

I see the blame being on bars and punishing businesses by shutting them down "again". I still see no media coverage on the spike being related to all the demonstrators!!!!!!! The demonstrations started a couple of weeks ago, the period for incubating the virus (depending on your source). Now the spikes and punishment goes to business owners and people wanting to enjoy life. Please!!!!! I guess it is not politically correct to point to the demonstrators in the hundreds of thousands, shoulder to shoulder, shouting, many not wearing masks. I support the right to demonstrate peacefully. But we all have been locked down, obeying the orders and moving toward a slow opening. Demonstrations..........but no blame there. Truly disgusting.

Shut down because most people are as dumb as a box of rocks and have an ALL ABOUT ME ATTITUDE. America has become a country of people that only think of themselves and do not worry about people on the other side of whatever their belief happens to be.

What ever happened to consideration for others and not spreading the virus?
|
Here is some food for thought. How many of the protesters, at least the destructive ones, will actually get tested? Recall that New York and the experts both estimated that 20+ percent that contracted the virus, had no symptoms (asymptomatic). NY representatives stated that after conducting their antibody study, that 1 in 5 New Yorkers that had the antibody test showed they had been exposed to the virus at some time. At that time only those with symptoms could get tested for the virus, that has now changed. So is there really a "spike" or are we just now uncovering more cases due to voluntary testing?
It is still a good case for social distancing and wearing a mask. |
Protect the public first, no concerns at all.

people are dying everyday & that will continue until we all are dead - kung flu or not,,, fortunately there are subs coming along to replace us
just found 'the house' yesterday after 4d search,,, noticed many staffers wear masks (publix, ricardo's, svce stations) but not so many customers,,, personally i'll wear 1 if situation recommends funny thing to me - yesterday saw lady in next lane alone in car wearing a mask,,, i would say an 'older woman' but she's probably bit younger than me ;-) what's SHE afraid of ??? |
Older people in TV arent responsible to follow the deed restrictions they agreed to. You really cant expect working lol people to be responsible to conduct unnecessary business safely. They wont even require or wear masks
|
Business Licensing
Business agree with their health safety and services licensing. It’s quite obvious that most business does not have the will or ability to control themselves during are opening

when the. virus keeps spiking, they shut it down
|
Yet I never hear any complaints about the admonition: no shirt, no shoes, no service. Apparently the sight of hairy backs and smelly feet is more important than stopping the the spread of a potentially deadly disease.
|
Because the cities and especially in TV have totally ignorant, selfish people who aren't wearing masks or social distancing. Drove into parking lit last night at Havana. Not a parking spot open. If that's 50% seating inside, I'll give you my first born. The health department needs to make a visit.

We bring our own to the squares so we could care less it the kiosks open.

Wow! Doesn’t anyone think that these bars have become COVID hotspots because of people not following CDC recommendations and therefore a public health hazard warranting their shutdown? The people that have been infected in these venues will now bring home that gift to families, children, parents and grandparents even if THEY chose to stay home. It a shame the government had to step in and protect those patrons and cripple those businesses. Those that got infected Just go on to prove the saying “common sense isn’t so common”.

You'll hear from him when reelection comes along and he is looking for money.

I have also written many letters to the Governor as well about the same topic. I also have written about the protesters causing higher numbers and wondered why that behavior is allowed to put so many people at risk and goes on and on. That is the plan you know?

Wal-Mart was not allowed to sell anything other than groceries in many places for a long time.

And, if you want to see what wearing masks and closing businesses has done, look to Europe. They’ve been successful with this! |
Protestors
If the spread of the virus was mostly from protestors then why is New York not having a huge increase like Florida and Texas??
|
Just lost it...
Could be because those people lost the use of one of their senses... like the COMMON one. And now we need someone that still has it to make the decision for them.
