[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Elrich is terrible but he’s who the privileged and mostly white Democrats want.   Because they are not poor minorities or business owners who are suffering.  Because MoCo democrats don’t give a shit about small business owners.  Lots of states are more open.   People who are high risk can stay at home.   Why the rest of us have to suffer is beyond me.   [/quote]

Low income and people of color have the highest case rates and death rates. People of color are also, by visual observation, most observant about masks. It’s entitled privileged white people who care about ME ME ME [/quote]

And, low income and people of color are also the people who don't want kids to go back to school, because they know they will get sick and possibly get worse medical treatment. While white, I live in an area of MoCo with mostly people of color. And I cringe every time people with privilege say "what about the poors, this is awful for them, we need to open up right away." The poor people don't own these businesses, and they are more likely to have a severe case of Covid or die. That's why they don't want to go back to school in person!

And, if someone poorer gets "long Covid" you may bankrupt your entire family for life. I know, I have an autoimmune disease that is very similar to "long Covid" and I would not wish it on anyone. That's why we live in the poorer section of MoCo, because I can't handle holding down a full time job right now.

I agree, they don't really care about poor people, they just care about dining in and getting their kids out of their house. 
If you really cared about the restaurant and venue owners, you can give them $1000+ tips on your takeout. [/quote]

We’ve been tipping 50% the entire pandemic.
