WHAT Jackboots ? The New York spring breakers and their callous disregard for Florida elderly ? If you mean that, I agree, except that the kids are YOUNG and stupid. We were all that way once.Florida governor Ron DeSantis has put travel restrictions on New York to Florida travel. People coming to Florida are required to self-quarantine for 2 weeks.
I don't think that's good enough. There should be a complete ban on all movement of people from New York to Florida. Airlines should be banned from selling tickets in New York, with Florida destinations.
The problems New York is having is a result of a the reckless lack of proper city planning of previous generations. This negligence has created the enormous population density far above any other American city, both in housing, business, and transportation.
I wonder if they are still running their crowded subway trains, and cramming people into elevators in tall buildings.
Having lived in New York City for 30 years, I always had the feeling that the extreme population density there would blow up into something really bad someday. That day has arrived.
Honestly, the most disturbing part of this entire experience for me has not been how dangerous the virus is. Nor even the tenuous economic times.
It's how easily those Jackboots slip on way too many of my fellow American's feet. THAT is what keeps me up at night.
Really.
Travel bans. Inhibiting the free movement of a free people.
