Because Science!, and Data!, or something something Emergency Powers.
Governor Half-Whit both moved the goal posts and extended the state's shut-down order until May 28.
In short, we've flattened the curve here, the hospitals built to house the projected coronavirus sufferers were never really utilized (The TCF Ccnvention Center converted to a treatment facility to treat an expected overflow of 1,000 coronavirus patients treated all of 17 before being shut down as unnecessary.
Interestingly, while she announced that she was graciously allowing the peasants working in construction to reopen yesterday, her latest announcement allows for the large auto manufacturers to get started up . . . . but not small businesses.

We're truly in the best of hands with Gov Half-Whit in charge.

MrGarabaldi: Yep, you nailed it. She's picking winners and losers, and supporting her backers first and foremost.
Governor Retch and Attorney General Weassel: The Laurel and Hardy of State officials.
Inviting mocking at a minimum. Still trying to figure out how to deliver tar-and-feathers via the internet.
