The economy was harmed by the fascist left. They were the ones who shut down the businesses, remember? As far as people dying, you might to talk about that with Governor's Cuomo, Wolf, Murphy, and Newsom. These are Democrats who deliberately and intentionally slaughtered tens of thousands of Americans by embedding COVID-19 patients in nursing homes. These Governors need to be charged with mass murder, but leftist filth continue to heap praise and reward them for their mass murders - as expected.
There isn't a problem with the economy where I live. No businesses were shut down, schools never closed, no mask or social distancing requirements were ever made.
Alaska's Governor comprehends that any mandate would be a violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, and therefore never imposed any. Although, he did ask that people mask up and reduce travel. The overwhelming majority ignored him, because we are not government slaves and we value our liberty in Alaska. Unlike you lower-48 government slaves who couldn't comprehend the meaning of liberty if it bit you in the ass.
