CDC officially jumped the shark when they came out a couple of days ago and recommended nation-wide mail in voting in the upcoming election. Ska-Roo that.
It's all spelled out.
The Tenth Amendment basically states that all 'non-essential' Government duties are reserved to The States (which then trickles down to the County and Municipal levels), and eventually down to you (A free Citizen)..
Essential Duties (per the Constitution) consist of:
-The protection of Citizens’ Constitutional Rights
-Defense
Foreign relations, Foreign commerce, and Interstate commerce.
Coining money
Establishing Federal courts
Copyright protection
Establishing Post Offices
Establishing a national set of universal weights and measures;
and the Taxation needed to raise revenue to perform these essential functions.
If the State you live in wants a ton of agencies, or social programs, or wants to go green, whatever... they can tax the shit out you, and you can have all that. Just don't come to the Federal Govt for a bailout when the money well runs dry.
"The [rejected CDC] guidelines are typical CDC bumf that are long on bureaucratic ass-covering and short on practicality. As the CDC does in everything, it adopts a one-size-fits-all policy that is focused on incompetently run places like Michigan and New Jersey and New York and seeks to apply those same policies to places where they are wildly inappropriate."
Note: Now "bumf" is a new word to me, not sure of the meaning,...
Edit: Looked up. The word bumf or bumpf refers to obvious or blatant propaganda, usually issued by a government, an organization or a large company.
For example, the report suggested restaurants and bars should install sneeze guards at cash registers and avoid having buffets, salad bars and drink stations. Similar tips appear on the CDC’s site and a Food and Drug Administration page.
But the shelved report also said that as restaurants start seating diners again, they should space tables at least 6 feet (1.8 meters) apart and try to use phone app technology to alert a patron when their table is ready to avoid touching and use of buzzers.
So, basically, destroy the restaurant industry. A lot of restaurants are or have buffets and/or salad bars. That's just part of their offering. The rest cannot afford to rip out half of their booths and tables to maintain arbitrary and outright asinine social distancing. At some point (at least a month ago) social distancing needs to END. COMPLETELY. Enough of people acting like hypochondriacs worried the next time anyone in the room coughs or sneezes the whole place is going to have to evacuate like the place is on fire.
Restaurants often lease space and pay by the square foot of floor space. So you're telling them to piss away twice as much money for empty floor space just so "particles wafting on the air" in the room don't magically land in an adjacent booth. yeah fuck right off.
Also the idea of the phone app thing, yeah it's ok, given if people really want to be forced to download another app to their phone just to be buzzed that your table is ready. FFS just take the buzzers and give them a quick spray with a disinfectant and you're fine. People need to toughen up and rely on their immune systems.
The CDC should provide advice on how to treat the disease and provide guidance that has a scientific basis for how to prevent its spread (hint: neither wearing masks nor social distancing has any proof to support their efficacy beyond the gut feeling of ‘scientists,’ many of whom are the same goobers who predicted overrun hospitals and people dying in the streets), but they should be forbidden to provide anything other than what is clearly labeled advice.

90% of DC voted for Hillary.
The ONLY way to drain the swamp is to
"less money = less corruption"
This. Always, This.
This needs to be the 2nd term goals. Arrest the traitors, massively shrink the size of the federal government, and balance the budget.
what would you cut?

Excellent comment. Thank You!
Every executive agency.
I would imagine most large cities voted in similar percentages to D.C.
CDC has always been a big pharma marketing org.
Wait, they did WHAT?!

Some well respected drunk guy had to of made that word up.
The CDC is a bunch of idiots that think they can control America with scare tactics
We are talking about the for profit non-gov agency CDC right?
Fauci owns vaccine patents. Congress is allowed to do insider trading. The IRS targeted Tea Party groups. The whole thing is zombie-level corrupt.
mmmm gimme some more of those pills

Fuck restaurants; you can get all the food you need free at the government factory cafeteria, comrade!
Breadlines are a good thing
It means there is food there!
Hat-tip: Bernie
Can we completely shut down the CDC now?
About fucking time. Now investigate them.
My favorite line in the whole article:
FUCK THE CDC
Here is one step plan.
1: Reopen your business.
1b: If you want you can tell customers to keep distance and pay money for all the extra safety shit that does nothing.
