We hearded everyone into basically a few stores.. Walmart, Target, Lowes and HD. And at the same time ruined the lives of millions of business owners and employees..People noticed the irony and distrusted the rhetoric.

Deaths were way over exaggerated by "experts". As were mortality rates.

Some restrictions made absolutely no sense. (closing beaches and parks)... Meanwhile Cuomo finds out most cases are from people forced indoors.

Governors Try to forbid protests of lockdowns, but are seen marching with BLM protestors.

Then there is the CNN, WP, FOXNews side of it. Where nothing these outlets say can be trusted anymore, een if they post correct info it's viewed as BS.

Finally add in the culture of places like S.Korea, Japan, or China... The USA is not an obedient country like those places. It's just the way it is over there.

WE have 1 of 2 choices...

States close all businesses for a year or more which forces us into a lockdown stay at home way of life. Thereby forces mass homelessness, starvation, suicides, violent crimes, domestic abuse, education catastrophe etc...

OR.

Open and accept the consequences. People are able to live their lives, families can support their kids. And we lose some elderly in nursing homes. And that's at a reduced rate than previous rates.
