1/ Many people are saying “I want to go back to work” who are actually just saying they want to eat, feed their children and pay their bills. What kind of (rich) country tells its citizens to make a choice between risking their lives or risking hunger for their families.

Actually a lot of the people at these protests are business owners who what they *really* want is for the government to make sure people are desperate enough to work for them.

Many are brainwashed by capitalism, they think they are there job, car, house, handbag. I believe we allare so much more and my health, clean water/ food, family is true wealth. I can wait for the plague to pass. I would rather be poor and alive than dead and have paper.

For some the felt memories & lived experience of when temporary shutdowns become permanent, jobs gone & all stay home, other businesses & services follow, despair & addiction come & so many depart - communities hollowed out.The many places where this happened for other reasons

A country that doesn't really care. Apathy will be the death of us. Thank you for your leadership. It's nice to know some rich people care.

um. also everyone dies and starves if people don't produce food and ship it and stock it and medicine. That stuff isn't just magically in stores to buy.

The healthy younger people shouldn't be quarantined, just the elderly, compromised and sick should be. We need herd immunity. We need to go outside and get sunlight and fresh air, closing parks and beaches is ridiculous 😡
