I am in PA and while I've never been a huge fan of this state, I've also never disliked it.
The issue is that I see our restrictions getting more and more extreme as time goes on. A friend of mine told me that he believes the general public will have had enough due to the draconian orders and eventually they'll be lessened. This is fantasy. I still see people with the masks on in cars and now more terrified than ever if someone dares enter a store with no mask. They freak out.
On the little town website we have that posts news, stories, ect - There will be users that comment on the coronavirus articles. Clear disgust at how far this has gone and the damage it is causing and how over the top it is. For everyone 1 of them, there are 10 people that post in response with "You're so selfish!" "Lives are more important than the economy!", ect. Not only do they support the lockdowns and draconian restrictions, they want more.
So the question - What state are you in and how are the restrictions? Would you consider moving? Is there ANY safe haven?
There was a post I read (Cannot find it now) about a guy that lives in northern Idaho and was getting a kick out of what others are going through. He wrote that there was very little mask wearing and that, for the most part, life is entirely normal.
Me on the other hand, I want to scream seeing every person in my town walking down the street ALONE with masks on. Clear avoidant footwork when you walk past them on the sidewalk. It's insane.
