We should do what Reagan did with the flight controllers. Order them back to work, fire those that don't. Problem solved.

Florida pede here....other than wearing a mask while grocery shopping, you would never know the virus was here. Restaurants wide open and our Covid data is better than California. It's all about control, not safety.

I'm getting pretty fecking tired of the "no fraud was proven in any court" when EVERYBODY knows that not one court case has actually looked at any evidence.

“All I have to do is write a piece of code that takes the thousands of partial ballots and accumulates them all for Biden. Because each micro transaction is so small, no one will notice us stealing the election”. Checks account 24 hours later…..”holy sht, we got more votes than voters. We are fcked!”

"but they still expect to be paid". Having something similar in CO right now. CU Boulder faculty do not want to open this fall due to virus. I'm willing to bet almost all of then think they will still be paid for not working. Here's my solution: if you don't feel safe, please do not come to work, You will, however, not be paid or receive benefits.

This is literally pulled directly from Orwell's 1984. The use of ARTSEM (artificial insemination) and the elimination of the orgasm to destroy the traditional family unit.

Here's one of the biggest factors people are missing: Pensions. I'm in Colorado, and after 30 years of service a teacher can retire at 75% of their final year's income. That's right, money for free until you die. I could have retired at 40 if you guaranteed me 75% of my income forever. Same for govt. workers. I've been predicting a class war when people working "real" jobs realize they can't retire, but their neighbor that is a teacher or works for local govt. peaces out at 55 without having to have saved much at all.

Colorado pede, here. We are still on almost full lockdown. No restaurants, gyms, etc. While Florida is moving the be almost completely open on Monday.

So destroying the economy and trying totalitarianism was totes worth it.

Reminds me of the Hong Kong protests from 2 months ago. Eerily prescient were the signs that said "Support HK or Become HK"
