Hawaii's government operatives are not crisis management material<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Working backwards over the past two months from today:\u00a0 ten more people died of Covid-19 infections<\/a> today (and thousands have become infected over the past week); dozens of State of Hawaii tenants will have their rents doubled<\/a> next month and are marked for eviction; the senator who introduced and then helped pass recent legislation that will shortly result in still more homelessness<\/a> (Sen. Sharon Moriwaki) got elected because she told her constituents that she was \"concerned about homelessness\"; and one of the largest agencies in our government, the DLNR, continues to fail to meet reasonable standards to prevent the further spread of Covid-19<\/a> -- especially the Delta variant --\u00a0 around their office environments . . . <\/span><\/p>\n

. . . and there's apparently not a thing anyone can do to stop this government-engendered madness.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Hawaii's government is made up of bureaucrats who were never prepared to preside over crisis management.\u00a0 Now we have a crisis, people are getting infected, dying, being made homeless in the middle of a pandemic, and our community is having to experience social disruption at unprecedented levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rick Blangiardi, the mayor of Hawaii's largest city, has instituted a \"Vaccine Card<\/a>\" mandate that will do absolutely nothing, according to the latest data<\/a>, to slow the infection down.\u00a0 Nothing.\u00a0 What Blangiardi is banking on is that sometime just after his 60-day mandated Vaccine Card period, numbers will drop off naturally due to a combination of herd-like exposure\/immunity and community awareness and, as a result, he will have created the illusion of his own heroism.\u00a0 What will actually happen is nothing<\/a>, except businesses in Honolulu will lose still more money and most of us will wake up to this latest deception far too late.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The failure of the State of Hawaii and the City of Honolulu to properly test and screen incoming visitors<\/a> and residents before they've been allowed to freely circulate in the community here, is causing needless suffering and death.\u00a0 In any other first-world civilized society, this would be criminal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It may be time for the people of Hawaii to take responsibility for the management of their leadership.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And because Hawaii's government is completely incapable of policing itself -- and has a history of ignoring public input -- for those of you who are strong enough and brave enough, the ONLY recourse is through the Federal court system.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
