We’re closing restaurants, grounding planes, shutting churches and canceling literally EVERYTHING. So what’s next? If people cannot be allowed to breathe around each other, surely health clubs must close. And grocery stores. And drug stores, right? Pharmacies, for sure. And doctor’s offices. Dentists can’t be permitted near patients. Nor patients near their dentists! And hair stylists. According to our current reasoning, literally EVERYTHING will have to cease.

I hate to break it to you: Politicians are scared. They don’t know what to do. They’re arbitrarily and wildly shutting down everything in sight because they are scared.
