Andy Beshear - Not a fan of Science
- Thread starter goukcatsgo
- Start date
You didn’t make an educated argument the entire thread. You just poked fun at what you view others
does it matter?
Overpriced is all a matter of opinion. The fact that people are unemployed due to an overreach of power is not.
Exactly what KY needs. If Pub super majorities don't take this on & pass, no reason to vote for them either.
Meanwhile...
UK is playing basketball today.
UofL is hosting the Wade Houston Classic basketball tourney today. Two games, 4 teams all in the same building.
Lowe’s, Home Depot, Kroger, liquor stores, malls, Wal Mart, etc...all open and packed.
But we can’t have kids in school because that would kill teachers and such.
It’s all arbitrary bullshit. King Andy is a jackass. Steve Stacks is a jackass.

The man that says we should "follow the data and science", governor Andy Beshear continues to openly defy Dr. Fauci. Fauci says that we should do all we can to keep schools open.
Andy puts not restrictions on Walmart, Kroger, Lowe's, Best Buy, but closes schools. It's remarkable how the state media in KY gives the governor a complete pass when not following the "data".
Consider that in September Andy literally did the opposite of what Fauci says here. He OPENED bars and told us to keep schools closed.

Even crazy ass NY had reopened schools.
Andy likes control. He punishes all restaurants because some were doing it wrong. Same with schools.

I can't figure out why he didn't do this.
A. LImit capacity in restaurants to 33%
B. Limit capacity in bars to 25%
C. Limit capacity in retail stores to 25% and one family member per household
D. Limit capacity to all indoor public gatherings, including church to 20% or 50 people, whichever is less.
E. Close schools the week after Thanksgiving to catch any "spike" and allow in school instruction until the week of Christmas. Then close schools until January 8th.
Everybody gets to try to survive and the most important thing still happens, school. Instead he goes against the science and data and leaves entire industries open but closes schools who are not accelerating the spread, and in fact might help limit the spread.
I think he's fallen into the trap a lot of other inexperienced leaders fall in to. Group Think/echo chambers. There are wide reports that his administration never communicates with trade associations before announcing these decisions...

A. LImit capacity in restaurants to 33%....you have no basis for cutting capacity period. There is ZERO data out there that X number of cases has developed out of people attending restaurants. However, if you want to play the % game, then keep it at 50% to make people have a false sense of accomplishment.
B. Limit capacity in bars to 25%...see above.
C. Limit capacity in retail stores to 25% and one family member per household....this makes zero sense. Again, what is your measurement that dictates ANY % in regards to stores. If people are wearing masks, then there shouldn't be an issue.
D. Limit capacity to all indoor public gatherings, including church to 20% or 50 people...whichever is less. ....sorry, but again w/ the random % capacity figure. I will admit you have to start somewhere on this, however, so I will throw my 50% # against the wall for now.
E. Close schools the week after Thanksgiving to catch any "spike" and allow in school instruction until the week of Christmas. Then close schools until January 8th......no basis for closing schools, period.
KEA - That’s why Andy doesn’t open schools. They got him elected and he will do what they want.
Yeah the rank n file teaches may want to go back to work ... the union management does what union management does .. screw people .
I agree... What I'm saying, is that he chose to completly kill three things while leaving other things completly alone.
And yes, there is data showing that outside the home, restaurants, bars, churches and retail establishments are likely next in line for accelerating spread. But I agree, I would not close those establishments.
The reality is that the data saying that it's safe have school is probably the strongest data on spread/no spread out there. The data on restaurants and bars is not nearly as comprehensive or compelling.
But again, I'm not advocating for that. I'm simply saying, if he felt the need to do something, my idea was far more reasonable.
Exactly..$$ is why one opened and the other one didn’t.
Yes-and kea...basically money and politics determine if it’s “safe” for our children to get the education they deserve.
Meanwhile, we continue to fare worse than Sweden:

Dude, they said the huge increase in cases was due to Halloween, and that Thanksgiving will basically kill EVERYONE.
Stuff is so far out of control, I don't know how this gets fixed. You give government this sort of power over your life and business, you ain't just gonna "get it back".
Desantis - school closures largest public health blunder in US history
Cuomo - “astonishing” how low the infection rates in school are
Fauci - close the bars, open the schools
Beshear - I’ll take this school closure fight all the way to SCOTUS!

I’d accept a pandemic 100 times as bad as covid if in exchange I never had to hear the name Fauci again.
Attention whore celebrity government officials are the goddam worst.

School closure proponents championing growing inequities.
Andy is going to die on his sword w/ the schools. The KEA must really have his nads in a vice grip.
Manny Caulk has to be fired! Him and Andy battling it out for most mistakes while still taking in that $$$$ fir themselves. Hoping our 2 new school board members step up and hold Manny Caulk accountable! Vote was always 3-2 in favor of manny. His 3 loyalists on the board were Stephanie spires, Daryl Love, and Ray Daniels. Daryl and Rays terms end on Dec 31.!
Back in July, an addendum to manny contract was pushed thru which in essence attempts to disallow any future negativity against manny by board members. If you go to 1:47:20 on the board meeting below, you can watch this take place. No surprise, it passed 3-2 with manny’s 3 loyalists voting to protect him,

Can we please elect Daniel Cameron our next KY governor? How great would that be for him to show Beshear the door out?

El Paso Mayor Says Recent COVID-19 Spike Due To 'Fatigue,' Many Cases Coming From Shopping At Large Retailers
The mayor of a Texas city hit hard by a recent spike in coronavirus cases says the blame can be pointed at "COVID fatigue" and that many cases are coming from shopping at large retailers.

The one thing andy dandy hasn't touched appears to be the biggest contributor to the surge in El Paso, which is in the worst shape of anywhere in the country right now.
Consider that he's shut down bars, restaurants and schools. Three settings where it's relatively easy to make sure people are following protocols but isn't touch retailers where it is very hard to enforce the guidelines.
Our governor doesn't have any sense.
Would be good if he could finally beat Beshear in something considering he’s been pretty worthless to this point.
