It's not the states responsibility to bail out restaurants, bars, hospitals, etc.. When I get sick I prefer Hooters to hospitals. Cheaper, better, and a nicer view.

The government shouldn’t touch a private business. If a business can’t handle its own business, then maybe It shouldn’t be in business.

lois tyler

so if hospitals went out of business where would you go for treatment when you or your family was sick or hurt can you set a broken leg or do your own operation ?

The governor signed a bill that limits local health departments' powers to enact health orders, which many say contributes to more virus spread and more hospitalizations.

My father in law is waiting for a bed that he needs to get to be treated for a failing heart related to his copd. The problem is there are no beds at the only two places that can perform his procedure because anti vackers and anti mask wearers are filling up the beds dying of covid.

We need that 30 million to help pay those who are working extra for COVID shifts...not companies who are over charging hospitals for workers.

He.knows nothing about economics. He is a chaotic and ignorant president.

Max DeYoung

Compare your bank account to Trump's, then explain economics to me. I'm waiting.

Connie Jacobs

Absolutely NOT! That moron thinks the importing country pays, when actually the receiving country pays.

The new paid sick leave requirements were another 'problem' that didn't exist and certainly didn't require more government regulation.

Fat Guy Outdoors

There wasn't such a thing as sick days in the Army. You were told to quit being a female body part and ruckup and draw fire.

If you staff correctly & uphold attendance policies, there shouldn't be an issue. Unwell employees means non-productive employees. If you can afford expensive vacations, then you can take care of your employees. It's that simple.
