Only once since this thing started have I been challenged for no face covering. At COSTCO, the greeter tried to stop me, I showed him their own policy, "masks not required for med conditions" and kept walking.

Here's their logic,,,,,The majority of NMs revenue comes from the leases for oil/gas fields. So let's tax the heck out of them to pay for all our social programs...But we want to end the oil/gas industry because, well, reasons. But now the oil/gas revenue has dried up. But we don't want to cut any social programs, so we'll just tax everyone's income even more. But we have the highest unemployment in the nation and it's rising since we closed all the oil/gas industries. But we'll just deficit spend, But states can't deficit spend. But we'll just appeal to the feds for relief while spending a billion dollars on a stupid bus line that no one rides. but, but but....
