   >Bumping to emphasize the danger.   
      
   	You mean the danger of having at least one co-morbidity.   
   Otherwise: you're pretty well fine.   
      
   >  As soon as you let up your guard, COVID will   
   >start to spread.  Of course this has to be balanced against the economy, but   
   >Waiters and busboys don't produce any equity.   
      
   	That's elitist bullshit.   
      
      
   >Employing people to commit self-harm and expose themselves to COVID for   
   >non-essential purposes,   
      
   	Non-essential?   
      
      
   >COVID may be here in 3 years.  It may be here in 3.5 years.  It will not be   
   gone   
   >until it is gone.  So any COVID Response has to be sustainable.  No one knows   
   the   
   >future.   
   >   
   >COVID exemplifies government errors and civilization's social problems.   
   >   
   >Socialism becomes all the more pertinent in a time of crisis, not that it   
   wasn't   
   >always right and pertinent anyway.   
      
   	Socialism just spreads misery.   
      
      
   >It should be emphasized, that children can have friends over.  In your own   
   home   
   >you should only be having intimate parties with your close friends.  Work from   
   >home if/when you can, should remain.  We should raise the minimum wage to 65%   
   per   
   >capita GDP of the County over the next year or two, and provide hiring   
   incentives.   
      
   	That would cause mass unemployment.   
      
      
   >COVID prohibitions should all be based on the principles of Employee and   
   Consumer   
   >protections.  Firefighters have to put their lives in danger.  The general   
   >principle of employment law is the work ought not be unnecessarily dangerous,   
   >injurious, painful, or unsanitary/poisonous.   
      
   	And it's not.   
      
      
   >As for Consumers: Advisement, Marketing, Advertising, and Product Labeling   
   should   
   >be required and regulated.  Prohibition has no place for Consumers.   
   >   
   >"The Congress shall have Power To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and   
   >among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes." - U.S. Constitution,   
   >Article I, Section 8, Clause 3   
      
   	Yeah, that's among the STATES.
