Those are enacted laws and regulations, not the whims of a governor. You claim the the state of emergency powers give the governor the right to do this and I say it doesn’t. I can see in the language how you could argue it either way but I don’t think it would be too difficult to argue against her right to make such a decision on her own. Forcing businesses not to serve someone doesn’t even stop that person from still entering the premises and spreading the virus. So how can you say this is even done to save lives as part of her emergency powers if it doesn’t even accomplish that purpose?

The legislature, by enacting a statute, said in a case of an emergency we defer to you governor. So her powers ARE coming from an "enacted law."

The right wouldn't have had anywhere near the same reaction had Hillary won.
It wouldn't have been the youth of America, it would have been old white guys and the rationale would have been completely different.

You don't know that. Many people hold the exact same opinion of Hillary as you hold of Donald Trump. She's a corrupt, horrible, despicable person that should never have been in consideration for POTUS. You continue to defend her, continue to cry "she's a victim of right wing propaganda", and refuse to acknowledge any of the many shady things she found herself involved in. It's not a coincidence she kept finding herself in scandal, and it had nothing to do with right wing propaganda. You are a sheep of the left, Luther. As much as you deride those who are sheep to Trump, you are the exact same thing, only answering to a different master. It's funny to me how each side can see how corrupt the other is, but refuse to see just how corrupt their own side is. Hillary is no better than Trump. Her in office would have been just as divisive, and honestly, given her past, I think far more divisive in the grand scheme of things. But you would have marched along happily as the pied piper played her tune.


I don't think you're dumb, Luther, but I do think you are blind. You refuse to see truth that is right in front of you. And that's sad.

He's Mr. Willfully Ignorant. If he doesn't know about it, it must not be important.

I think that is some of the most ridiculous bull **** I have ever read. To suggest Trump being elected devastated their world more than losing their job, or more specifically a loved one??? You are insane if you truly believe that. Trump being in the Oval Office changed nothing. The world was still the same place. I get people can't stand him and I agree he's an insufferable prick, but him getting elected did not "change the world".

And they wonder why they are referred to as snowflakes.

My theory for the significant increase in hospitalizations right now is due to race. African Americans are more likely to have diabetes and to have high blood pressure than other races. They are genetically predisposed for those issues. Factor in the recent protests and if they were exposed, they potentially have a greater chance to have much worse symptoms. For a while, when the outbreaks were discussed in the media they would mention that it was primarily attributed to minorities, but now there are no mentions of race and the breakdowns of who is at greatest risk.

Told to me by a medical professional the other day (Nurse Practitioner)...Many Covid cases are tests that have been administered more than once. If someone tests positive, gets better but still has the virus and gets tested again and still tests positive, it is being counted as an additional case. It’s not being counted as one case attributed to one individual. Could be part of the reason for the uptick with so many tests being administered now.

I do know that we tested one pt 5 times and another 4 times. Before I left the average test for a known positive was 3 times while in ICU. I'm not sure how those were reported. I know I was a presumed positive in 2 different practices that got reported seperately.

Are those the patients you said were reported 5 and 3 times in your earlier post responding to EL?

No, the Michigan's Constitution would trump state legislative acts. But her actions don't violate the Michigan Constitution.

Like I said, we’re never going to see eye to eye on this issue. I bet if you were paid enough to argue my side in court you could do so successfully though. Enjoyed the back and forth EL.

I count for 2, one pts counted for 5, one pt counted for 3.... You believe those numbers are accurate?

That’s what I want to know..... legitimate numbers..... I also want to know the number of positives that would reasonably go to a doctor if they didn’t know a pandemic was happening.
