So, where's the trade-off between life and profit?  I come down hard on the side of life, because focusing on the profit side above human life is immoral, in my opinion.  You seem to take the other tack, so tell me how this works if the number of cases rises again and open/close decisions need to be made? 

Then, take a few minutes to read how this should have been done from the git-go.

Technically, air conditioning is a luxury too. It's fortunate that most people don't view it that way anymore these days. Profit??? You are looking at this as trade-off between life and profit? Boy are you stupid..... So, how long would you survive without any income these days? I'm assume that you still rely of a source or sources of income like most everyone else these days. I assume that you feel that those income sources of yours or your wife's are pretty secure and therefore a non concern by the mindless liberal position you're taking with me. Dude, you are right up there with the movie stars and musicians who seem so elitist and so disconnected from reality these days.

Dude, if there was a way to remove all of your income, all the income of your well to do politicians, well to do heirs of past robber barons, well to do actors, well to do musicians I would do it just to hear what the liberals sound like when they're REALLY HURT and to teach you all a lesson about the weakness/absence of values? Are you an essential person? I don't think you're as essential as the salon owner and her employees or the bar owner and their employees or the baseball team owners and all their employees and so on. I would sacrifice you for the greater good of all those people in a heartbeat and I would accept some personal risk to get all those people back to work and earning income. Right now, the COVID19 survivors significantly out number the COVID19 dead by a wide margin. Yes, the more free we are the greater the chance for someone like you to get it and possibly die from it. Well, it's up to you to protect yourself if you are at higher risk.
