Coronavirus

I agree Tony. The handwriting is on the wall. I too am a small business owner and this PPP and whatever else they have is BS. The unemployment system is a disaster and I am doing everything I can to keep my business alive.

Each state will open as they see fit and the other states will learn from that. I'm about to write about a post I had with DEC and NYS officials in Albany. They don't know what to do either. By the time I got off the phone, I knew less about the regs.

But I understand that this is a once in a century situation and there are going to be kinks in the system. I am also confident that they would love to see us fishing. They just haven't agreed on it.

I still think that the boats for hire could show cause that they are necessary as the anglers are feeding their family. But there's no unity there so it probably won't happen.

I'm not sure that I agree it's going to get worse. Let's just hope and pray that the states which are opening are doing the right thing. Because if they are we are sure to follow.

I sincerely hope that this is a correct statement and we learn from it to keep it that way in a world far more mobile and multinational than in 1917/18. As they say, "Those who are not familiar with history are doomed to repeat it."

It would behoove the powers that be to keep this event on an eternal front burner and make, implement and maintain solid practices to minimize the impact WHEN the next ugly virus/bacteria raises it's ugly head...

I’m less worried about the boats in general ( believe it or not)
Most longer running operations will squeak by till summer and maybe eek out enough to get thru next spring

my bigger concern is the new operations, and those that made big upgrades and carry big notes

the restaurants that won’t make it , and their ppl

travel and tourism in the city
mans a host of other businesses that will shutter

The city’s loss in revenue , budget and service cuts
Will cause more damage than this particular virus ever could

Just saw a news report of a tailor n clothing store in Manhattan opening up
And his neighboring stores say they are opening on Monday

no matter how hard the state tries to continue this lock down
It’s going to collapse here and across the country

You are 100 percent on the money ......its in the process of happening right now.

It’s been happing capt13
One Nypd pct set up a 10 pm to 2am barber session
Underground bars are already in operation

now it’s staring to Strech out into brick and mortar stores

the only thing stoping it from growing faster is fear of losing permits or
Business certificates issued by the city
But even that will give way with only the most vulnerable to city retribution being stuck closed

The ppl no longer fear the virus they fear the ramifications of being shut down

with the exception of those either working or stuffing their pockets with free govt money
Those folks are content to continue down this miserable and destructive path

I see this as similar to 911. Shortly after I lost our day office at the World Trade Center, I had the "opportunity" to do TDY in other areas of the country, St Louis, California, etc. Except when I did TDY in DC including the Pentagon you would have thought the other areas somehow skipped thinking about ragheads murdering our fellow Americans. Doing my part this time around but in a different manner: have done takeout twice with a local Italian restaurant, twice with our chinese place, and once with our favorite fried chicken place, lol.

I am open to understanding what your trying to say, just open this up a bit wider so it can be completely considered even if it may be completely rediculous.

My only concern is we may need to close the liquor stores in both your areas.

It’s easy enough to understand j
What I posted is happening
Plain and simple

oh and I don’t drink much
Haven’t had a drop since this stupidity yes
Stupidity started

Nyc pd pct set up with a barber that was working on the side
To cut 12 officers hair
In the middle of the night

you think there’s this great lock down going on
And I’m telling you it’s crumbling under its own weight

ppl are ignoring it
And rightfully so

I know you well enough to know that you understand both sides of the issue. I also know if it were up to you the entire country would be open. And I see that logic. But let's try to consider the flip side of the coin and look for that middle of the road sweet spot.

If you want to open up your charter and open boats please let me know. I am confident we can get it done.

I just need a little help.

I’m certainly interested in trying
George

what do you think is necessary

As to your other point

I can see the other side of the coin
I’m not so sure there’s a sweet spot in the north east corridor
and fir more rural areas and less effected areas
They have reached it

Gotta give em credit

Screw you and your stupidity

Just out Gilead says shorter remdesivir regimen is effective and drug met primary endpoint in government study - MarketWatch

Gotta give em credit

Screw you and your stupidity

How many of them you think will catch it and die ?

Gotta give em credit

Screw you and your stupidity

I don’t give them credit.

It shows their lack of respect for any and all laws. Regardless of what’s going on they do as they please. If anyone says anything about it they scream about religious persecution.

It has nothing to do with what’s currently going on and everything to do with doing whatever they want. Kind of like how they get funding for Yeshivas but refuse to teach basic curriculum requirements.
