If Government in the US is going to attempt to take away freedoms...
at least the Govt edicts should be designed to directly remedy the issues they are attempt to fix.
I think by now... everyone knows that it is the obese, the very old, and those with co morbidities who are doing the vast amount of dying. They also are the most admits to ICUs.
Govt solutions should be well tailored to address that very situation.
Any restrictions on one's freedoms should start with the group you are trying to protect.
In others words in you are going to declare lockdowns... lets do serious lockdowns for the high risk group. Design programs to make sure they get care. Demand old folks homes... protect their residents really well... including proper testing and safety restrictions on their workers.
Lets design programs to make sure they can get their food and medicine delivered to their homes so they don't have to leave.
Let make protocols for multigeneration families.
Let's stop bullshitting around with dangerous PC shit about masks which don't protect people per the studies and actually protect the high risk properly.
This is a serious situation.... We may be close to having to do triage at hospitals because our Govt officials have to too P.C. to demand the high risk to lock down properly and isolate themselves from family member properly.
Something you may not understand is that in a constitutional republic, your personal freedom is not unlimited. It may end where it impinges on others' freedom.
