From early returns, it should be as dumb as we may expect.

Isn’t that the truth. We constantly manage risk. Many of us are crying out to get the right of self determination, to work, to cooperate; to invest in our families , to serve in our churches. We want to live instead of existing.

Many leaders it seems are choosing paths to minimize if not eliminate risk. But the only way to eliminate risk entirely is to go out of business and forego all potential benefits that come with taking calculated risks.

Americans have traded liberty for safety. That is why the working class cannot have affordable home ownership options and why I pay more to rent a room than neighbors pay to own houses.

Restaurants with outdoor seating should be open already. You're in more danger from an old lady jumping the curb and plowing you over.

Even when you leave your house in the morning, there is a very small Chance that you could be killed in a car crash but you still leave the house and go to work. That's a tradeoff even if you don't think it is

I agree @AmityShlaes “everyone safe” should be replaced with “everyone controlled.”
