“One welcome byproduct of the COVID 19 [panic] is that we are getting some blessed relief from the ministrations of St. Greta of Thunberg, which rather puts things in perspective: How can we possibly be navigating this crisis without the advice and counsel of Time magazine’s most recent Person of the Year? It’s almost as though when something serious comes along, as opposed to the climate change whim-wham, adults recognize that listening to a teenager is stupid.”

Austin city government is adding to the Wuhan China virus panic by ordering all “non-essential” businesses to close until May 1. Retailers can’t afford to do it, especially not restaurants and bars. Be lots of unemployment.
Trump and the feds only recommend. The city council orders.
How are the little tyrants—supposedly non-partisan but mostly good lefty Dimocrats—going to enforce their ordinance? They don’t have enough police to begin with. Will they hire enforcers with truncheons?

From the Z Man, who tested positive for the Wuhan, China virus: ”
“In order to ‘flatten the curve’ we need to obliterate what’s left of civil life. We have to hand to the state the power to shutter businesses, lock people in their homes and reorganize society as they see fit. The price of flattening the curve will be a never-ending war on civil life by a thoroughly corrupt ruling class. So no, it is not just the flu bro. It is not about the stock market or the economy either. It is about what comes after the flu decades after it is gone.”
We’re fortunate to have Trump as president, then, because he’s far less likely to want business continually hampered by government, much less civil life. He removes regulations, he doesn’t increase them. Biden and his ilk, however, would do just that and massively, and raise taxes to boot.

“The rapid economic growth in southern China has led to an increasing demand for animal proteins including those from exotic game food animals such as civets. Large numbers and varieties of these wild game mammals in overcrowded cages and the lack of biosecurity measures in wet markets allowed the jumping of this novel virus from animals to human…”

The replacement has finished the crown and window molding and is due back today to paint it and a new six-panel solid wood door. That will do it. At last.
UPDATE: Door on order until the 24th, molding getting painted.
MORE: All done but the door. Replacement took a iPhone snap of his work and shook my hand. I waited until he left and then washed it with soap and warm water. My preference to hand-sanitizers.
