CTH: Any governor who shuts down their restaurant industry without a civil contingency plan is being incredibly, catastrophically, reckless. It really is a terribly dangerous decision. Any policy that drives more demand, when demand is already outpacing supply, is a bad policy.

Bartender here, with that exact same question. Cops gonna go around to every restaurant and kick people out? They have better shit to do. Its not what the employer wants, not what the employee wants, not what the customer wants, so this should be interesting to see how it plays out
I'm not worried about the virus, I'm worried about people making irrational choices based on panic and the disruption of there normal day to day.
It makes perfect sense when you realize that the intent is to cause the maximum amount of chaos and disruption to the daily lives of the people as possible, because chaos and disruption hurts Trump's election chances and helps Democrats election chances (when they can promise "a return to normalcy" if only the people elect them and oust their "unstable" leader).
Exactly this. They want to burn everything down and then blame Trump. It's fucking bullshit
If I owned a restaurant in Ohio, I would be staying open. Fuck this dystopian bullshit. They dont even have 400 cases in the entire state
Yes these moves worry me. It worries me much more than places closing schools. Contingency plans are in place for those disruptions now, thanks to POTUS. What is the contingency plan for this? POTUS has helped put in place help for small businesses. I wonder if his thought was that governors might then just shut shit all the way down? I mean wtf? I hope he's on the phone with these guys tonight.
They are making things worse for the people of their state. People need to push back on them.
You're asking Democrat bureaucrats to understand basic economics? You go too far, sir!
the same governor just criticized prez maga for the long lines at o'hara airport int'l arrivals. these dems are doing their damnedest to screw over our citizens in a crisis.
Pritztard. I don’t know what’s worse Madagan or him.
A lot of older people can't really cook or shop, but they walk or can drive to a close-by drive in restaurant. Or diner. This is bad for them.
Are we talking about McDonalds or Chick-fil-A?
Tax consultant here. The Belgian government did that here. Alot of my clients that are restaurant owners will have to file for bankruptcy over this. Disgusting.
Found this out while eating at my local brewery tonight. The owners decided to let the staff drink since it was the last night they can be open for 2 weeks. It was actually a pretty sad experience. Employees were in a WTF state.
My little brother is a bartender and student here in Columbus. He's out a job and school is all out of whack as well.
This is such bullshit. Everybody panic!
This article hits the nail on the head.
There's little food at the supermarkets, I know, let's close all the restaurants too!
The goal is to destroy the country of course it has no plan and seems illogical. These people willfully choose to endanger the lives of Americans to make trump look bad.
