As I’ve been saying for months, people have to open up the economy every which way they can.
A few bar and restaurant owners have seen the need to band together and fight the lockdowns.
As a business owner of any kind, you need to think and take action along these lines. But in a much larger way.
You need to form associations of your types of business: barber shops, salons, bars, restaurants, small grocery stores, gift shops, caterers, food trucks, inns, independent truckers…
Each type of business puts together its own association(s).
In addition to whatever you do to survive, you each file lawsuits against governors and state public health departments, for unconstitutional lockdowns based on false science. [1] [2]
Several lawsuits along these lines already exist. They reveal how to proceed.
Every lawsuit is accompanied by a major publicity push, alerting the press and the public, and describing the horrendous effects of lockdowns and closures on business owners. [3] [4]
Whether or not the lawsuits succeed, they provide an occasion for the dissemination of truth.
Imagine this: associations of barber shops, bars, restaurants, truckers, etc., each filing its own lawsuit and each launching a PR campaign to expose the truth of what’s happening to small and medium size business owners.
Small business owners and entrepreneurs are decidedly independent-minded. You each have your own way of building your businesses. But you can form these associations, create and bolster your power.
“Today, in Missouri, a group of 50 bar owners jointly filed suit against the governor charging that lockdowns of their operations are illegal…their representative spoke to reporters outside the capitol…”
