Highlights of Pritzker's speech: Shelter in place starting Sat 5pm til April 7th Schools closed til April 8th minimum now school breakfast/lunches will still be available for kids through shutdown at schools however statewide moratorium on evictions during crisis going to try to house any homeless going to somehow offer safe childcare for emergency workers like doctors 'frontline workers' etc essential activities: healthcare, pharmacy and grocery shopping, gas stations, banking, drive-through and carry-out restaurants, and home-based care for children and seniors Agriculture and the press, veterinarians and plumbers, laundromats and banks, roads, bridges and transit. The fundamental building blocks that keep our society safe and steady will not be closing down. no martial law no activation of national guard other than medical personnel can still go outside and walk around not locked in your house grocery stores will be open, pharmacies open, DON'T HOARD YOU loving ANIMALS mail still be delivered parks and libraries in Chicago will be closed, other municipalities its up to their mayors. Parks won't be cordoned off rather all the buildings/facilities within them (bathrooms, greenhouses etc) will be closed. You can still walk in them, walk your dog etc just stay 6ft away from each other For updates: Public Health website: chicago.gov/coronavirus text: covid19 to 78015 Oracle fucked around with this message at 22:26 on Mar 20, 2020 |

It's unenforcable, police will cite people when they see it but for the most part it's all on the honor system.

This might be bullshit, but my wife says she knows someone who works in a factory that does nothing but make sprinkles (like for cookies and cupcakes) and that they are being exempted from the order as "essential." I'm skeptical, sounds like one of those things from a forwarded email, but

Badger of Basra posted:I mean food processing is essential or else the essential grocery stores won’t have anything to sell Yeah; I'm pretty sure one of the main takeaways from the French Revolution was that if you run out of bread, you can make do with cake. But if you run out of cake, then heads will roll. I'm not a Doctor of History yet but that's what I remember from one of those classes with the book with all the numbers that we used only the front half of (that wasn't a math class).

I'm skeptical, sounds like one of those things from a forwarded email, but The government doesn't typically make a determination on every single business and item in advance. All this means is that SprinkleCo's lawyers are comfortable enough that they will win the case if it comes down to "do sprinkles count as 'food supplies' under this law." E.G. Gamestop is staying open in California because they also sell electronic supplies which are typically deemed "essential". They might get dinged on it, but they might not. It depends on how law enforcement is feeling that day.

Gamestop probably just stayed open because there's no one left making decisions companywide anyway. They've been on death's door for a few months and we're set to shutter more stores in April before COVID really blew up. I'm glad everything is shutting down. Not sure dispensaries staying open for recreational makes much sense when the last time I visited they still had a line of like 30-50 people out front (a social distancing line where everyone had 6 ft from one another but still) Maybe if they hadn't bungled the supply out the gate people could actually buy enough to not have to come back twice a week and the lines wouldn't be ridiculous. The least of concerns at the moment but

They didn't bungle the supply, it was intentionally kept limited so that the market won't be saturated when Social Equity dispensaries open.

Or if only we had someone trying to run for president that was aware of this problem and talked a big game about doing something about it, but the masses appear to be taking a stance of "nah, trump lite is gonna be way better."

I kinda agree that maybe Menards should not be allowed to stay open. Walmart, I don't know if they should exist at the scale they do but I get the need to keep them open as that's like a grocery store for a number of people. Menards is not what I would classify essential.

If he hadn't put scare quotes around pandemic and gone full mask off "How DARE big gubment interfere with MY business!" right at the finish line, those would have been fairly reasonable concerns.

Pretty much what I am seeing among Southern Illinois is that Rs are generally doing two things: 1) Saying that any criticism of Trump is people playing politics with this tragedy. Criticizing him is detracting from getting things done. 2) Pritzker is ruining the state by doing what he has done. He is trying to ruin small business in order to prop up big business. This is all a plan by the communists to get people dependent on the government. Edit: Also a poo poo ton of “this is what makes small towns truly better than big cities because we take care of each other.” I hate Southern Illinois sometimes.
