So I've seen alot of talk about how this is all hogwash. I'm not on that side. I think taking smart measures to avoid spreading things unnecessarily is smart.
I've read how its affected younger guys on here and that's increased the pucker factor for me a little, but statistically everything's still "fine".
HOWEVER
I do not like the way govt overreach has gone totally unchallenged. I understand that these are sort of one of the few things they're actually supposed to do. I dont necessarily agree with legislating out stupidity. Like the playgrounds, someone else made the point that you're statistically more likely to get hit by a car but we dont have national shutdowns and freak outs over that. And that's something we actually can legislate the stupidity out of lol.
At what point do people just say no? Especially on the employment side? We have TONS of infrastructure now for most people being able to work from home. We have tests and tools to keep people healthy and screen for issues. We're about to be past the "curve apex". And measures have tightened down. If we get past and things haven't lightened up, when do you say no? When do you get back to work? When do you go play on the playground despite our wonderful tax dollars being spent to put caution tape over them? If you have a largely healthy population, when do you get them back to work?
I'm not anti-safe measures. I'm just for common sense and tired of people just blindly accepting govt orders without question. My wife and her friends wont see each other at all because of fear. Just getting ticked off.
I probably really need to just go fishing and get off the GS and put off work lol
