Is your business "essential"? Well, just check in with the state governor page...(if you're not on it, don't worry, you can apply for a variance, because the government is still open!. Might take a few weeks though, unless your business trades on the NYSE, in which case, we're sorry we missed you on the "essential" list the first time.)
But that's just PHASE ONE! ...plenty of rules to follow, but we're just getting started!
Yes, once your county reports less than 10 cases per 100,000 persons over a 14 day span...you can apply for...
PHASE TWO!
This means lots of pages of new regulations to be in compliance with, for severely restricted business opening. Not open enough to do anything except lose money, of course.
(You'll be taxed though, you can be sure of that).
PHASE THREE (more of same)
PHASE FOUR (It don't matter, because now you're in Mad Max Ville, but with RULES. Lots and lots of rules.)
See a rule breaker out there? Well, the state government page has a very helpful form where you can autonomously TURN IN YOUR NEIGHBORS for suspected rule violations! You're a HERO.
Etc...Who on earth would want to travel to Washington State like this? Seriously. It not just that everything is closed; you're likely to be pulled over by the police just for driving/walking down the road/sidewalk.
Airline demand to markets like LAX, NYC, SEA are TOAST until all this goes away.

they are talking about school being one day a week where I live. Online the other days. Everyone with a kid in school should be writing the school board and governor, and telling them they need another plan or they will be on the sidelines after the next election!

I also see that the great state of WA got scammed for tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars in unemployment payouts to...wait for it...NIGERIA.
Good lord.

Well what do I do if I don't believe most polls? As far as polling goes put me down as a skeptic. We all know how you can sway the outcome by how you phrase the questions. It seems to me most polls today are designed to validate a predetermined point of view, vice truly trying to determine a point of view.
Lets ask President Hillary Clinton what she thinks of polls since according to almost all the pre-election the polls she won by a landslide.
