Wow, just glimpsed at a quick headline. Schools are closed for the rest of the year? * 30 days They closed our hairstylists and barber shops here, too, on Monday. My wife is mad at me for not getting my haircut. I sang a few lyrics back to her from Signs:D |

Schools are closed for the rest of the year? no need to remind me we've got three little school-skippers in the next room I didn't know about the state-wide business closures until a few minutes ago when a couple of my customers called to see if we're closing (which apparently we're not) must be like one of those recreational golf/walk your dog exceptions  |

I know I couldn't do it. |

This country would go nuts if we were shuttered up completely, 24/7. I know I couldn't do it. when one goes down we all go down I've seen too many seniors peering out their windows in my lifetime. Bill Gates just weighed in- markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/bill-gates-slow-economic-recovery-trump-coronavirus-public-health-first-2020-3-1029028597Gates said the US economy shouldn't go back to normal for the immediate future and businesses should remain closed during the coronavirus pandemic.
"It's very irresponsible for somebody to suggest that we can have the best of both worlds," the philanthropist said.
President Trump is weighing whether significant restrictions on US economic activity put in place to curb the spread of the virus should be lifted next week.

Bill Gates is warning of dire economic consequences should President Trump move ahead and start lifting restrictions on the American economy in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic.
Gates, one of the nation's leading philanthropists, didn't mention Trump by name. But he had a scathing rebuke toward the Trump administration in an interview on TED Tuesday.
"There really is no middle ground, and it's very tough to say to people, 'Hey, keep going to restaurants, go buy new houses, ignore that pile of bodies over in the corner. We want you to keep spending because there's maybe a politician who thinks GDP growth is all that counts,'" Gates said.
"The economic effect of this is really dramatic. Nothing like this has ever happened to the economy in our lifetimes," Gates said. "But bringing the economy back ... that's more of a reversible thing than bringing people back to life. So we're going to take the pain in the economic dimension — huge pain — in order to minimize the pain in the diseases-and-death dimension."
He said businesses should remain closed for another six to 10 weeks.  But he didn't say anything about NOT playing golf. So, I shall. |
