    Mississippi has declared the same, beginning today. Texas' opening is next week. Hopefully many more States follow. (South Dakota never closed.)

    I wish I could move there now. Maybe Abbot makes a run in 2024!

    South Dakota first. TX next. Open up!

    The problem the totalitarians are going to have is the success of these freedom-oriented approaches. Totalitarians rely on there being no control for their social experiment. If these succeed, evidence will demonstrate they have unnecessarily crushed our economy. Hopefully more and more freedom-oriented states will follow, and the data will be irrefutable, even for the ridiculous media. Biden et al will be left holding the turd, and there is little he can do except watch.
    Expect this to precipitate greater claimed success from vaccinations (means less lying about the issue), and CDC supporting more openness to reduce marked evidence of stupidity.

      A lot of people are saying Abbot only opened the state because he's planning to run. Trust me, everyone's not thrilled with his performance. I would guess he's going to have a tough time, but I can't see an improvement with ANY Democrat candidate. That would likely sink the state.

      I'm just so glad that when I get down there in the next few weeks - permanently - I won't have to deal with the mask thing. Though now there's a huge groundswell of virtue-signaling that "I'm going to keep wearing my mask." Well, Okay, don't care if you do, but I won't.

        Great, if people want to wear them, go ahead. If people want to require them in their homes and businesses, go ahead. This is freedom.

        Watch the droves of "How to lie with statistics" unfold as people seek to justify their positions with "data".

    I think any business has the right to demand masking, and IMO at first a lot of them will. But when they see the money heading down the street they'll figure it out. Hope so, anyway!

    I wonder about the timing. I think yesterday was a great day to make the new rules active...why next week?

    I am a high school teacher in the Houston area. My school district looks like it is going to follow the CDC guidelines as opposed to what Governor Abbott has decided. I just hope that there will be overwhelming pressure to do away with the masks but I doubt it.
