Stay at home orders for all the above last days, not three months. Says who? Good thing I didn't mention a nuke meltdown, they last longer then a few days for sure Besides, they're not state wide You might want to rethink that and don't inhibit freedom of movement across the entirety of the country May want to rethink that also.
It would be an easier pill to swallow if the conditions for the orders didn't keep changing. So your tolerance for uncertainty in uncharted waters is limited then? Viva Frei put is best:

"It went from “flatten the curve” to “find the cure”. From “social distancing” to “house arrest”. From “2 weeks” to “3 months”. From “we’re in it together” to “snitch on you neighbors”. From “individual liberty” to “comply or pay fine”. We lost the target. And government knows it."


And you know the dinosaurs became extinct because they failed to adapt. "House arrest", gimme a break, hyperbole.

If you're willing to accept this then there is no limit to what you'll let government get away with.

One side's political persuasion is opening while the other is staying under lock down. We'll find out in a couple weeks who was right and who was wrong.
IMO that statement shows a very limited understanding of what the future might hold, and falls to the fallacy everything is right or wrong, black or white, one side or the other, everyone must be a winner or a loser, great if one's agenda is to be divisive.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
