Everyone should take heed and social distance. Hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst. Many thanks to all essential business for supporting the community in this time of need.

YES! I'm very worried. I don't go anywhere but walking my dogs and don't get close to anyone, but we have to buy groceries, and with more spread, it makes such simple chores that much more risky.

No. Herd immunity is a GOOD thing. Interesting to note that it's the Dem govs that are displaying their authoritarianism in the name of "safety" through all of this, not Pres Trump.

They biggest problem is the unreasonable panic that the constant barrage of 24-7 news coverage is causing. Information is important, but I wonder what the news will cover when this is over.

I think it’s smart to take precautions, but I think it unwise to destroy the economy over it. I do believe it is worse than the flu, although it mostly dangerous to those who are already compromised.

I'm over 60 so I'm at higher risk. With that I'm more at risk of death by a vehicle crash...I use common sense wash my hands often, keep my distance from people I don't know...lets don't panic

I'm not prepping in the normal sense. But I am being aware of what I have and what I need and only going shopping when I need certain items.

The strategic oil reserves are for times like this. We should also keep an eye on the oil companies and make sure they are not making extreme profits off the backs of the American citizens. After all that petroleum is being pumped from American taxpayers land that has been leased to these oil co.

No, the reserve is not for time like this, it is for times when we don't have oil available. We do have oil available now, and a LOT of oil available. It is just that Biden (and pseudo-environmentalists) don't want us to use it.

The US shouldn't be relying on foreign sources of energy when we have more than enough to be energy independent again. We were energy independent just over one year ago. But that ended on day one of this administration.

Absolutely! Prices are way too high! Just another attempt of oil companies taking advantage of a big situation like in the 1970's.

Explain why oil companies would not provide as much oil as possible at a time when prices are sky high. No, the prices are high due to speculation of shortage, given Biden's refusal to open up the spigot (the oil leases he claimed unused are not proven, exploration still necessary. ANWAR is KNOWN

Price is getting ridiculous. Average working person can't afford commuting to and from work.

We may need our reserves for war before this is over. Increase supply and lower costs by reversing Biden's orders and policies. https://americansforprosperity.org/biden-policies-raising-gas-prices/?fbclid=IwAR3jOvKpxrWnyT1iz2JrBflODu-aV7aHZdj_B4JgTndUI-8XFvAwXp3M1Jw

Absolutely not. Oil prices (and therefore gas prices) would drop dramatically if Congress would just reverse the disastrous executive orders Biden has put into effect restricting U.S. oil production.

Why tap into a reserve that is meant for when Oil is unavailable? We have plenty of oil available, it is just that irrational environmentalists don't want us to use it: https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2022/03/07/greenpeace_environmentalism_allowed_putin_to_invade_ukraine_820399.html

These letters allow people who can't financially compete with investors the opportunity to stand out.

It's your property, you should be able to use whatever information you want to decide the sale. Say I'd rather sell my property to a local family instead of a corporate developer that should be my choice.

Yes they should. That is how I sold a piece of real estate I had. Happened four years ago. Was given a higher offer from a developer but I went with the people that sent me the letter. I was able to pick who was going to live next door to me. Have never regreted it. They are the best neighbors!

Who cares? How is it not fair? Anyone can write a letter. Just another issue liberal politicians waste time and money on.

We have a Democrat controlled legislature that thinks it should have total control over our lives even to the extent of taking away our freedom of speech.
