Camp stoves, hot plates, inverters, microwave ovens, portable fridges and stuff are showing up in highway trucks.
There are states that have locked down so tight, that there is not even take out food for drivers. Or there is no take out food places drivers can get to.
$26 for a delivery pizza....$32 delivery charge. $58 for a meal...or two.

Yup SW , some would be considered essential. Most you could live a good life without. You could not buy most of them at CT. If ALL stores were completely shut down, could you not live without most of them for a couple of weeks? When you run out next week, will you line up again , while complaining about line ups and people not following lock down directives?

I am not trying to lump anyone in with this. I think the person who drew this picture was trying to make the point that "no we aren't really in this together". The people in the boat are the culprits, the politicians, media, and PS (health unit) are pushing the lockdowns and the police enforce it. If the people pushing and enforcing the lockdowns were to lose their paychecks, there probably wouldn't be a lockdown.
All businesses are essential to its employees and their families.

Your inability to recognize Sarcasm could be a very serious problem..

Yep........From Oakville to St.Catharines the malls are filled with 416'ers. Ideally they should ask for ID at the doors to the mall (much like they did for public beaches in the summer), and turn away anyone residing in a lockdown area but that would mean turning away $$$.
Hell Limeridge Mall took out radio ad's stating it was extending their hours - fricken idiots! Might as well just invite the GTA over for a BBQ
Needless to say shut'er down, and take the highways down as well while you are at it.

Yes we need more shutdown
My friend is a manager at a home hardware he said the first Lockdown people just came in to walk around .
If your going to shut down let's shut down
Not this 80 percent open and 20 percent shut down.
If its not taken seriously who's going to listen?

I don't know about you guys, but I just have a lousy feeling about all this. It's depressing, families are really struggling, lonely ... it's killing us slowly. We are social creatures. To many, family is everything ... and to be torn apart like this ... it's not good.
I just have this feeling that we are walking into the beginning of the end. If we end up with inter-city traffic control, enforced by police ... it pretty much would confirm it for me. We would be moving quickly towards a military state ... you guys must know that isn't going to be good, right?
