It's Time to Stop Paying Government Salaries
BLUF:[Red State] Anecdotally I’ve noticed that the people who keep insisting on extended lockdowns are the people who are still getting paid. And you know which huge group is still getting paid? Government employees. I don’t know if there is something about being one of the lucky people to still have a paycheck that makes one grossly incurious, but it doesn’t seem like there’s a lot of empathy coming from the people in government right now. If you have a friend with a government job ask them if they think the economy should reopen or we need to quarantine through the summer. I’m willing to bet the majority will say we need to stay quarantined. My own governor Gavin Newsom has been on television every day looking concerned and somber and telling us we may need to get used to this new normal. Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti is saying Angelinos cannot look forward to any kind of large gatherings until at least 2021. The entertainment capital of the world can’t have a sporting event until 2021? That’s half of Los Angeles’ economy right there. Posted by: Besoeker 2020-04-26 |
