“The state telling you what you can and can’t do isn’t about health”
When the state tells you it’s safe to go to The Home Depot to buy a sponge but it’s too dangerous to go to a florist and buy flowers — it’s not about your health.

If you ask the folks around here, when should we open New Hampshire, many of them will say, no one had the authority to “close it.” That’s true, but we don’t live there, we live here. And while His Excellency has a plan to slow roll us back, not everyone agrees that’s the best way.

As Predicted: Democrats Want 12% Tax Hike on Businesses They Demanded Be Shuttered
Before Chris Sununu took the bait and closed the state, Democrats were screaming for a shutdown. It doesn’t take a political genius to know why. The economy is their foil, and they believe that killing it improves their chances in November.
MAKE SKEPTICISM GREAT AGAIN™
Faith is killing us. I don’t mean faith in God. I mean faith in demigods. For the purposes of this article, it doesn’t matter whether you believe in God or not.

When Dems Prayed to Ruin the Economy did They Plan to take Local Liberal Media with It?
We’re not above asking for donations. But none of us do this for a living and the money pays for servers, drive space, and bandwidth. The Concord Monitor is a Daily Newspaper with a physical footprint and a payroll, and the #VirusEconomy is hitting them hard.

The Federal Government loves to give away our money, but in this instance, it is to save small business payrolls for operations that were forced to close.
