Having followed this outbreak since I first heard about it late last year this is a interesting decision to say the least.
I think that Bullock is between a rock and a hard place, but I think he made the right decision before, and possibly even now.
The Protests encouraged by the President and Russians on Sunday (did you ever think such a thing would be said?) were timed to coincide with quarantines, giving two wins to the President, at least in perception.
With his Braying at the Podium in his usual abstract, meaningless sentences and a "Plan to Reopen America" that was an abstract joke to say the least, he set the stage for a win.
His Protestors can now also declare a victory and the Right will undoubtedly feel more emboldened, like a Boxer who walks in the ring and raises his hand after the fight is already over.
I want to be clear, I think closing the States have been well intentioned, but at least here in Montana I seriously doubt it accomplished what we wanted it to, at least as well as we hoped.
Since rumors started long before it was announced that we would close, people jammed shoulder to shoulder in every type of store, from Grocery stores to Sporting goods we never had the proper shelter to start with.
Testing has been sparatoic with only those who are "At Risk" with full symptoms being tested, so I take serious issue with Steve Saying we have the capabilities to properly test to keep this under control.
That is a fucking lie.
Nevertheless here is Steve's Plan, you may form your own opinions, and I look forward to comments as always.
