Spot on...because they WANT to crater the economy, in order to beat Trump. That is all they care about.I think this is what the base of the democrats are looking for, permanent closures and high unemployment.

And many have lost what makes up 20-30% of their revenue: liquor sales!But nobody is going and they have bills to pay.A lot of restaurants in my area are doing a great job at adapting. Many still do pick ups, and others have started to deliver. The other day I went to a local bar and grille to pick up food, and they were so packed that I had to wait about 30 minutes to receive my food, and it was already finished cooking.
Actually prohibition was the best thing for organized crime because it gave organized crime it's very life. Maybe WWII gave it a second wind though. Likevtge war on drugs gubberment is always creating problems it can't solve and biting off more than it should and can't chew. The simple message is prohibition of any kind for anything will simply never ever work. The only effective way to kill a black market is to flood it because it's entirely dependent on the natural law of supply and demand. Low to no demand equates to no money so it naturally dies of starvation.Our grandparents are looking down on us from heaven and laughing their arses off.
Those measures were put into place because there was hoarding.
There was also an active black market at the time. WWII was the best thing that ever happened to Organized Crime, because after the beating it took in the 1930's when prohibition ended, it got a whole new lease on the black market and the government turning a blind eye to its activities.

Coronavirus 'good scenario' could be 20% of small businesses fail
Karen Mills, the former administrator of the Small Business Administration, welcomed the stimulus, but expressed concern on whether the money could arrive fast enough to make a difference.finance.yahoo.com
Nice try but it does not wash
mayors and county commissioners in democrat controlled districts are issuing the orders to close businesses
yes, they are acting on the information given them by health professionals from international down to the local hospital
but the elected officials at state and local area have the final decision

If you aren't talking about the topic you don't belong here
So again, we are having a Darwinian event, failed companies are being eliminated and the worthy companies are surviving. This is the argument you guys make whenever we talk about spotted owls or snail darters.
Many new businesses will fail without being artificially failed by governmentNice try but it does not wash

Which wasn't the point. If your business was SO Marginal that being limited in operations for a few weeks is going to shut you down, then frankly, why should the rest of us bail you out? This is the argument you guys always make when it's working folks losing their jobs or some poor girl who gets knocked up and needs a welfare check.
Fuck them.
Many new businesses will fail without being artificially failed by government
Some people fail several times before luck and learning from their mistakes finally pay off
but if the business was alive before the commie virus found us it has a right to its fair chance
THAT is the most relevant 'free market' quote to ever meet ascii JoePoint is, you guys are all for a "Dog eat Dog" world, up until the point you are the Dog that is about to be eaten.
Dog eat dog is your term not mineMany new businesses will fail without being artificially failed by government

"Commie Virus"? Viruses of the World Unite, throw off the shackles of antibiotics!

we do believe in a competitive but fair market
you want workers to make more money for their labor but at the same time you want cheap junk from china
But you cant have it both ways
Where the cheap junk is made is kind of irrelevant to the discussion. We lost far more jobs to automation and process improvement than outsources. Most of what you consume is still made here.Dog eat dog is your term not mine

So working folks get a little pittance of $1500 and big companies get a huge bailout after they already got big tax breaks in the Trump Giveaway.
Kind of like what they did in 2008, where all the working folks got kind of screwed.

thats globalist bullshit
the millions of jobs that moved to china are being filled by humans not robots

I work in manufacturing... You have no idea what you are talking about.
In fact we are in a global economy, we all kind of depend on each other. Trump's trade war has killed American Manufacturing because supplies of components were disrupted. Then the virus hit and kicked in the whole rotten edifice.
