(17,636 posts)will feel about Trump ordering private business and private employees back to work if they feel like it is dangerous?
I suppose he will be creating a special Work Police to send to your house every morning to play reveille and to see that you get out of the house. Is the old boy going to pull new laws our of his fat ass?
Trump might be able to allow businesses to go to work without Federal sanctions, but he doesn't have the authority to force the country back to work.
People will be happy to return to work when the danger of the health crisis is over.

(1,178 posts)It's one thing to reopen the economy. It's another for people to contribute to the economy. The reopening of the economy is only going to be as strong as the people will make it. Does he think just by reopening the economy that people will be spending money in droves? I don't see very many people risking their lives and the lives of their loved ones to do that. I don't foresee myself going to a tavern and sitting at a barstool until I know for sure it's safe to do so. And you can't force people to buy things.
