Actually , You Are the one who is missing the point.
The majority of Michiganders agree with Governor Whitmir’s EOs to protect the health of our citizens during this pandemic.
You are making exactly the same arguments that the South made in defense of slavery - government laws and the will of the majority of the state. Yes, the shutdown orders do kill people - on a unilateral executive order and supported by the majority of the people.
It was was mostly Democrats who supported elimination of rights and sacrificing people in promotion of slavery on behalf of the richest people in the USA.. It is mostly Democrats now who support the elimination of rights and sacrificing people in promoting of the best interests of the richest people in the USA.
You are justifying forcing peoples lives destroyed and for people to die being unable to afford vital medical care and in other ways - citing total dictatorial government power by one person and will of the majority as justification - although none of this was ever voted on by anyone - voters or their legislative representatives. So why not just eliminate the Michigan state legislature and have her be dictator over everything?
Unlike for slavery supported by laws passed by democratically elected officials, you support summary totalitarian power by one person never supported by laws or the Michigan legislature on behalf of dictatorial power claiming support of the majority -although not one person voted for this nor did one of their elected representatives in the legislature.
Your governor could have asked the Michigan legislator to pass a law applying her orders specifically - but never had done so preferring to be a total all-powerful tyrant. She has no intention of allowing any political debate or democratic process. She wants and took total power over everyone's life singularly herself. Please never post about supporting democracy or civil rights. You support dictatorship and majority rule.
The entire concept of individual, civil and human rights is to fully eliminate both the power of the government and the power of the will of the majority.
