On one side: He (And California leadership overall) is unwilling to actually do what needs to be done to combat this (Pay people to stay fuckin' home).

But on the other: The Recall Newsom crowd clearly just want to replace him with someone that just won't give a fuck at all, open everything up 100% and keep it opened up no matter how bad things get.

Haha, this sucks man.

    Well, to be maybe too fair to California, there's only so much a fuckin state can do because the money all comes from the feds. Is any state paying people not to work? I feel like that's beyond most state budgets.

      No states are doing that, but CA could. It's certainly beyond most states' budgets but not CA. It's not much of a joke to call it the world's fifth largest economy. There are some things to be fair to California about but this isn't one of them imo - this is literally a case study on capitalism and how Blue v Red means jack shit in the face of stuff like this
