First off thanks for reading! Second, yeah, I've spent most of my time recently in Texas and Georgia. It's been quite a political indoctrination for this Chicagoan.

And there even seems to be a mentality of, "let's tough it out. We won't wear masks, we may even get sick, but we are tough, and some of us may fall, but we will fight for our freedoms from the hospital bed if we need to!"

So yeah, you are so right.
