Meanwhile, working folk are still waiting for their paltry $1200.

I don't want to be tracked, although I know that is a pipe dream nowadays. I don't want Big Brother. It's a slippery slope once they have your number, no pun intended.
I know it's false security, but it's why my real last name is not my FB name, etc.

And you are the exact kind of person who tracking would be most helpful. You work in a place that you are at risk, with people who have multiple contacts, shipping stuff that also had multiple contacts. You are a grade A risk to be a transmitter even when they have things closed down and even if you were willing to lock down, because you are involved with multiple people.

This is the difference between Americans and many other places. And why we will continue to see other countries get a handle on this way before we do. While they have group think for success we have a leader who has the attention span of a gnat, complaints, factions and a bunch of different narratives- pick the one that let's you be as selfish as you want because for sure someone will be willing to say you have a right to.

I can almost guarantee that anyone that knows me knows where I am at the moment, without phone-tracking. Either that, or they are pretty darn close. I'm routine-based. I'm a habit kind of person. It's Big Brother I don't want knowing the finer details of my life. ;)

Can you name every person you may have been in any contact with today? People you passed in the supermarket aisle? Passed on the sidewalk on the way to your apartment? Which one of them might have had the virus and exposed you to it?

I can. Marc and Alex. That's it. Curbside pickup.

Just because you are afraid of big brother does not mean he is already following you.

I will go one further. Upon arriving at said establishments. I extended my ID out the window, popped the trunk, they deposited said goods into the trunk, and off I went. That was today.

Yesterday (and all of this week), there were 5 people, all at my job, and all are sanitized before entering my building. Next?

Keep trolling, tool.

Best rant I’ve seen so far is that Whitmer is spitting on the graves of WWII vets because this guy’s grandpa was on Omaha Beach and liked fishing. Then said he’ll be on a fishing boat everyday until the ban is lifted.

If they would've followed social distancing rules at the $%(*($ing boat launches, there wouldn't be a need for this. Suck it up and start rowing.

All these new gardeners and Whitmer: A Love Story.

Who will play Whitmer in the Lifetime Original Movie? Meredith Baxter Birney?

The money goes to employees who would otherwise be on unemployment. It includes full benefits. You prefer they remain on unemployment?

No. I think these programs are necessary. I just find the irony rich when the person applying votes for people who say socialism is the devil

Who did I vote for who says socialism is the devil? As I’ve repeatedly written here before, we North Dakota natives have a long history of socialism.
