Not all "millions". Only the small businesses, the majority of whom back the political right. The huge conglomerates, such as Amazon, Netflix, as well as the entertainment business, all have exemptions, and continue on unchecked.

If this isn't an effort to destroy small business and make large businesses more powerful (payback for censorship and financial support?) I don't know what is......

Please...it’s foolish stop lock downs they are destroying our country. Covid doesn’t kill 100% but the lockdowns will destroy businesses 100% if you can’t work from hime, what’s left for these people who lose everything.

Covid will make regular people sick but they get over it. It’s only the compromised that need to lockdown.

You are wrong. They should never have shut down in the first place. If they'd let it run it's course the worst would be over. Will you do what ever the telescreen tells you to do?

Restrictions actually did work in many states but when you open up recklessly and without the ability to react it's a recipe for disaster. Why is it so hard to understand that distancing and masks work. This wave is a result of increased travel and families gathering for Thanksgiving, not really difficult to understand.

That's rich....someone from OAKLAND calling anywhere else an armpit.....hilarious! And I am an ex-californian who has been there. I'd be embarrassed to admit I was from there.......

Locking things down isn't wrong. Requiring masks, and social distancing isn't wrong. It is common sense. Something California has very, very little of.
what a silly post. All populous ca counties have had mandatory masking since may 1 or earlier.

Yeah, it turns out that unless you kill your citizens or weld them into their homes like they do in China, that highly contagious airborne pathogens tend to find a proverbial way...
