Wow what can I say. Pritzker comes to Peoria, and tells us we have been bad subjects, and if we don’t get in line with what he thinks, then HE will impose tight restrictions on us. Of course I am taking about COVID, and the rise we have had, ALONG with everyone from the Quad Cities to just south of Chicago, but locally includes Peoria, Tazewell, Woodford, Marshall, Stark, Putnam, Knox, Fulton, McDonough and Warren counties.
Major Ardis did stand up and state that if there are tighter restrictions, i.e. roll back to Stage 2 or whatever it was, would have a detrimental impact on the local economy. That is a understatement, it could destroy it, and many, many businesses would never recover. To be honest, I don’t think Pritzker really cares. As I stated earlier, he is just trying to show his power and that he is going to control what is going on in his state. Oh wait, Chicago is totally off the rails, and is a complete mess. And now going to keep people from Wisconsin from coming in, really, OMG. Like i said earlier, Pritzker is fiddling, Lightfoot is dancing to his tune, and Illinois is going down the tubes. You know, there was a study done by MSNBC, and the top 2 states for people leaving was #1 New Jersey, #2 Illinois, gee there is a shock.
On a separate note, the President floating the idea of delaying the election, by far, is the worst thing that could happen. I understand where he is coming from, with the mail in ballot crap, that just breeds and encourages corruption, and ballot stuffing for the Liberals/Socialists. With that said, if COVID is around, and we know it will be till at least after the election, I would support extending the voting time, i.e., take a week or 2, so that all of the social distancing can be done, and yes it would take longer, but at least it will be a somewhat normal election.
As always we are blessed with today, and tomorrow is a new day.
👍🏻 I would add the fact that ole JB was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and really doesn’t have any idea how the working people of Illinois get stepped on by the government on a daily bases with the policies they have implemented that make it hard for the average civic minded tax payer to climb the economic ladder (which leads to social mobility) but I digress.
Re: our Democrats governor. I believe him and all Democrats with power are doing everything possible to make our lives miserable and using COVID to make it look as if all our restrictions can’t be helped. Well it can! There are smarter ways to keep us safe and not destroy the economy at the same time. I grow so tired of the political tactics the Democrats use. Not to mention all the other awful tactics including: BLM, illegal immigration, relentless press badgering, educational institution’s brainwashing, Russia probe and the impeachment process, and the list goes on and on! It is blatantly clear to me that they are intent on bringing the system down and replacing it with a socialistic society. If they gain power again in all three branches, we will see that process continue…you know the one Obama started!
Regarding extending the election time: I don’t get it. You stand 6’ apart and wear a mask and have people there to wipe down the keyboard in between voters. Wtf is so hard about that? Ok I’m done!
