They are not doing it now. Are you working? Were you locked down? How long?
If you were locked down for more than 2 weeks, out of work, find a better job. "Essential workers" were about 75% of the work force.
Texas won't lock down again because when they pulled that shit here, someone sued, and won. Texas didn't have the authority to shut businesses down and when someone challenged it in court, she won. Now, if they try it again, more people will sue using that first lawsuit as a precedent.
Major building construction halted for 2 weeks. The financial sector, not at all. The government doesn't have the grip you think they do. Only the television watching lemmings or small mom and pop businesses that depend on customer sales are even slightly concerned about losing their jobs.
When people start to worry, actually worry, lawsuits will flow and that will end this shit immediately.
I'm talking about making people afraid to talk.
