>But the SF government has a job to do, and it is not their fault that state governments in the US cannot afford adequate economic stinks. The anger needs to be towards the federal government for not providing a well-deserved bailout.[..]
the following quote addresses part of your comment.
[..]Danielle Rabkin owns CrossFit Golden Gate, a small fitness center in San Francisco, and directed her ire towards local officials at the San Francisco Department of Public Helath who chose to adopt the stay-at-home order despite the state projecting the Bay Area would be the last region that needs to shut down.
"My big question is, why does SFDPH feel they need to be more restrictive than the California DPH?" she asked. "Why put people out of work and shut down businesses when according to Newsom we had two-to-three more weeks [until] the Bay Area hit the ICU criteria to shut down? There is no extra compensation offered, why should the feds bail us out when we meet state criteria to reopen? SFDPH is behaving criminally, this IS SO WRONG. They are leveling this city."[..]
- ojnabieoot 6y agoJust FYI that was typo, “stinks” was meant to be “stimulus.” And again the fact that an ignorant self-interested business owner’s complaint is presented without an opposing view is disgusting. Even if SFDPH’s action is found to be unlawful it is ridiculous to call it “criminal” and irresponsible to print it without context. San Francisco is correct to look at local conditions and make a more stringent judgement than the state as a whole. I do not understand what is so difficult to understand about this (except overwhelming bad faith and indifference to human life).
- jelliclesfarm 6y agoWhy is it disgusting? It’s a perfectly adequate query. Can you answer that without hyperbole or overuse of adjectives?
- ojnabieoot 6y agoIt’s disgusting - revolting, despicable, outrageous, horrific, contemptible - to pretend that San Francisco didn’t give any reasoning for their more stringent order. The order explains the reasoning perfectly well in an 80 page PDF anyone can go read: COVID is worse in San Francisco than in other parts of California. So it’s not a “perfectly adequate query,” it’s just ignorance. And it’s horrendously irresponsible for SFBay to perpetuate that ignorance during a pandemic.
