Poll: Will the US go under quarantine?

posted by justincredible

New Jersey just implemented a 8pm-5am curfew. Don't like that.

It's coming here very soon.  Local sheriff's departments are training as we speak on how to enforce.  That is no joke.

I honestly believe we are within a week of complete Martial Law.

Saturday everything will be down for 14 days....nationally 

Give then time to get the checks out 🤷🏻‍♂️

You guessing or does your wife's co-worker's brother's cousin's co-worker's nanny know something concrete?

If you’re going to make these predictions throw out a link or source to it. 

Not buying it....nationally.

I do believe NYC will be shelter in place in the next 48 hours, maybe less.

Sorry. I didn’t know we needed much more. My thoughts have no evidence or links. I’ll try to follow the rules better.

I don’t need a source to make a prediction.

I was just checking if you were guessing or heard something. It was a guess. That's cool.

Same.

It's going to be hard to get people to follow it. San Francisco went "Shelter in Place," and it was mostly ignored. 

Just saw on the local news that bars in Ohio flaunting the shutdown are getting their licenses yanked.

I don't know if liquor licenses are transferable, but it's not hard to imagine some places are going out of business, anyway, if they shutdown.

I have no idea how many people work in retail, restaurants/bars, hotel and airline, but only the big corporations could afford to pay people.  If this goes on for months, that has to be more people missing a paycheck then at the bottom of the Great Recession.

When you think about the potential losses, $1T in stimulus will barely scratch the surface.  This is much worse - those businesses have no income, at all, to even cover rent/mortgage, insurance and utilities.

I should’ve better stated that it was only a prediction/feeling. Sorry if it startled anyone.

This is all a hoax by our government to get accurate census numbers.  They're going to send people door-to-door once they have people shut in their houses.  You heard it here first!!!1!!!!!

Just spoke with a client in Buffalo. He was pretty "doom & gloom." Felt that everything would be shut down (in their area) in the next few weeks with no gas, food, etc. Not a pleasant call. He did say that when/if this passes that there should be an even bigger business boom.
