This isn’t much of a diary, but a request for the Kos community to enlighten me on this obvious conservative attempt to reopen the economy at the expense of killing US citizens. Most of the current ‘hot spots’ are just peaking, and many of red states with shelter- in- place have not yet peak, so the pandemic is certainly not over. Also due to lack of testing, its not clear, if there is enough people who have either recovered or immune to the virus to give heard immunity to this virus. Hardly a time from a public health point of view to re-open public areas. Why would the conservative movement take the risk of lifting the shelter-in-place restrictions and cause another spike in the infection rate, deaths, and all the negative PR ? Like the voting fiasco in Wisconsin, this is a PR disaster in the making.
Voting wont occur until November, and these folks who feel their civil liberties are being pressed may not even be alive to vote. Any theories out there on what the real agenda is ?
