I won't presume to speak for others, but my #1 peeve is that gyms remain closed in our area. No, it's not a question of masks, social distancing or limiting numbers of patrons. The gyms are flat-out closed, full stop.
So you are a single issue voter....the gym rat lobby isn't gonna take it anymore.
The Governor has said he will announce his plan for reopening fitness centers in the next week. Of course, county by county opening will vary based on no. of cases, hospitalization rates, etc.
I spoke to an aunt of mine the other day. She was a little girl during WW II. To put your current "inconvenience" into context. She remembers:
1. the massive rationing of goods like gasoline, butter, sugar and canned milk
2. Virtually no new cars were built during the war (all production went to the war effort);
3. Huge shortage of rubber so you could not replace your car tires;
4. Planting victory gardens to mitigate food shortages;
She recalls getting a balloon right after the War....she was amazed as she'd never seen one before that (because of the rubber shortage). If my Aunt could wait several years for her chance to get a little balloon...certainly you can wait a little longer until the gyms open back up.

At least two visitors were arrested in Hawaii this week, accused of violating the state's coronavirus requirement that tourists and returning residents self-isolate for 14 days.
I hate to say it, but all the conspiracy theories are out the window now (since most states have opened everything back up.
“Opened everything back up.”
Huh? Clubs are still closed. Bars, festivals, museums, small businesses, sporting events, tourist towns, tourist cities, schools, etc. are all still closed.
The economy is not a switch you can flip and everyone finds a job again. Millions of people are still out of work.
First Baptist Church here in South Carolina opened up -- had three 'open' services and announced today -- closed again until July at the minimum-- COVID the cause.
Hoping that not too many people get sick or die. That would be a shame......careless, sad
Politico said it best a few days ago .... they are Panicking because their own Economists have said we are headed for a fast recovery. Their last hope is for large Cities to stay Locked Down to force a recession.
Precisely correct. The Left leadership would rather people suffer it they perceive it will hurt the President overall. They've gone completely off the rails on this.
