    The difference is those things have proven effectiveness. A cloth draped across your face, not so much.

    For one that won't haul for $1.00 a mile, there's 100 that will...

    Never let the truth interfere with a good lie...

    There are masks with proven effectiveness. Just wearing any cloth across your face is the equivalent to wearing sunglasses as eye protection. 9 out of 10 places might find it acceptable, even though you are not getting properly protected.

    Some of us think this whole thing is total BS and a manufactured “plandemic”. Myself, when I’m told to go one way and my life depends on it because the numbers and experts say so, I tend to realize maybe I should go the other way that nobody else is. Especially when it’s a government. I’m not going to bow down to anyone or be told that’s what I need to do or I’m the unstable weird one.

    Rip out the seatbelts! Experts who work for the government say they save lives!

    Come on, man. Even Sean Hannity is fairly pro mask.

    I'm not trying to say you should or shouldn't wear a mask. I just think that the logic behind anyone's decisions should be consistent. If a government encourages businesses to wear masks, and they adopt that policy, you can reject it or accept it. OSHA(part of the government) is responsible for setting the standard on PPE. Do these PPE policies get the same scrutiny from people as the mask policies? People might say that a piece of fabric isn't going to protect you from COVID. You could also say that a hard hat isn't going to save you when a 5 ton piece of steel is dropped on your head.

    Had a $1,575 day.

    Haven't done that in awhile.

    Praise the Lord!

    Maybe if they did people would drive like they have some sense.
