Soooo, .....if you don't agree to let the government track you they will deny you the ability to leave your home and you will be denied necessary supplies.

LOL. Or, you could read what the tracing initiative actually entails and not just the Twitter headline.
How about we keep all illegal aliens IN THEIR HOUSES, and the government can bring THEM food and medicine?
And there's reason for that. I just looked at the zip codes of where the most virus cases are in my county, and the two highest - by a long shot - are poor areas where illegals have settled. No surprise, either - they live doubled-up in apartments in close quarters. Since the purpose is to contain this virus, would liberals be OK with putting them under house arrest.
There is no enforcement mechanism for that type of law.
It is the same with wearing mask and social distancing in public areas (private business can require a mask for service), either the public buys in or they don't.
It says people would not be allowed to leave their house for basic necessities like groceries and medications. What? You thought they should say they shouldn't be allowed to leave their house to go roller skating?
The Lynnwood Times certainly says that, yes. It is conspicuously absent from Gov Inslee's comments.
He isn't attending to the issue of "refusal", rather he is avoiding it.
Now, if his position is simply a service to "encourage" people who wish to participate, more power to them, this is in line with liberty.
If the response is dictating compliance, providing punishment, or use of force (be it legal or physical) to gain adherence, this is unconstitutional and will be struck down.
His unwillingness to deal with the discussion of refusal should concern people. Once the system is in place, and most people accept it under the idea of "honest intent", then they can begin forcing people individually, and it will be much harder to fight.
I think this will happen and become a problem.
Of course it would. The issue is they are assigning a position to Inslee that he has not taken.
It's click-bait fear mongering. Nothing more. This is like saying "if you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to you". That doesn't mean you have to have a lawyer, right?
Do we get to CHOOSE which foods the government will bring us, or do we just have to eat what they select? I hope there's a kosher option.
You only get to eat SOYLENT GREEN. Don't know if it is Kosher or not.
