There's construction going on next door to my apartment building in Brooklyn, an area code where 50%+ are testing positive for covid antibodies. There's no reason that would be safer than an auto plant, if anything it is less so.

- otterley 6y agoHence the "necessity" component that is weighed against it. Building additional housing, especially in expensive cities such as NYC, is considered extremely necessary by society.
- neilmock 6y agoSome amazing question begging happening here. Value is subjective.
- MiroF 6y agoNot what it means to beg the question.
- tasty_freeze 6y agoPlease explain your understanding. My understanding is to assume the premise you are trying to prove in the act of proving it. The one being accused of begging the question said construction is a necessary activity because society says it is necessary. But that doesn't mean it is necessary, which is what the law would seem to require.
- MiroF 6y agoThe conclusion was that just because being a Tesla worker and being a construction worker are roughly equally safe doesn't mean that both automatically should re-open. Construction being more valuable for society than a Model 3 was part of the premise. You took them to mean "Construction is more valuable for society -> Construction is more valuable for society" but that was not the claim.
- misiti3780 6y agoi live in brooklyn too, and there is a construction site next door with lots of workers. it's ridiculous that tesla cant open up
- manquer 6y agoIt is not like other business like construction in Alameda county has been allowed to open and Tesla is being asked to keep closed. While NY and NJ have stepped up their response they are not exactly the model other states should be copying .
- kerkeslager 6y agoI think it more has to do with the necessity of the service versus the risk undertaken.

- remontoire 6y agoNew construction is more needed?
