Yes, it will be interesting to see what happens over the next few weeks. I feel badly for restaurant owners, and hope they're able to hang in there.
If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do.

Why should we reward failure? Especially when most will declare bankruptcy anyway and walk away from debt. No sweat off their backs for their failed experiment in tax evasion.

Wish you were forced to stay home during the pandemic at a 50% capacity to work and when you end up homeless I'll point and laugh and laugh and call you a failure.

Government office as in mom’s basement??
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.
