Kind of like Educators and Admins, and many Federal and State Workers. Thy continue to collect their full salary, which allows them to be Anti-Trump and hope for an economic disaster to immanentize the eschaton.
Now, if this goes beyond April 15th, they should all be furloughed until school opens or the economy re-opens or both. Why should 100% of State Health Officials checking restaurants, bars, barber shops, etc. be getting 100% of pay when 90% of those are closed?
It's absolutely ridiculous that one group should continue to get paid in full for no or little work, while tens of millions are out of work entirely. Nobody should be that privileged in a national emergency.
That way they have skin in the game, and their TDS will be tempered by economic realities like the vast majority in the Private Sector.
They need to check their EduPrivilege!
Should we Reopen the Economy:
* In a Week or So
* In a Month
* Right now
* Slavsya otechesvo, at least 3 months
Choosing this date like a lottery number? Like Trump, based on a holiday?
What a dumb question. How about we base it on the COVID-19 developments?

What is this thing "news"?
It’s that carefully crafted propaganda, subliminal mind fuck America. Sprinkled with occasionally useful information to stay slightly relevant.
without underlying health issues, the guy was 70
Turner also briefly spoke about the city's budget deficit due to COVID-19. He said Houston's deficit would be between $170 and $200 million, including a sales tax reduction of $100 million.
"It would be the worst deficit that the city has faced," Turner said. "This one will be worse than the city's deficit in 2016."
I think the sales tax funds being substantially short of the estimates is going to wake some people up.
Dude, in sales tax states it's going to be a blood bath. I don't know Houston at all, but since most places pay sales taxes monthly, we won't know until they're paid in May. March was a cut back in some places, but April was shut down. That money is gone. I think the sales tax funds being substantially short of the estimates is going to wake some people up.
Illinois will just jack up your property tax again to make up for the short fall.
Quick, somebody tell me how eeeeeevil Prop

God knows that the Democrat and unions running your State will NEVER ask any sacrifice from government workers and their obscene pension system.
VAT revenues collapsed

Yes, when government officials start to realize that they have cut into the money that pays their own salaries, and for no good reason, this madness will stop.
That could take a while though. They still seem drunk on their newfound power. The hangover will be rough on them too, thank God.
Family called all our favorite restaurants for reservations for tomorrow and they are already booked. Dallas is ready to roll.

Students will return to Central Michigan University in the fall, the Mount Pleasant school announced Monday, despite expected continued health concerns over the coronavirus pandemic.
Students are likely to be sitting farther apart in classrooms, and dormitory suites will have fewer residents, but the school’s 21,000 students will be back in Mount Pleasant, CMU President Bob Davies said Monday in a news release.

Good. College students have next to zero chance of dying from Wuhan virus.
the mayor of Nashville, TN is predicting a +30% increase in local property tax to compensate for the significant reduction in sales tax.
