I must disagree in the extreme with the tone of your editorial “Wolf’s excessive attack on the Pa. economy will hurt lives.” While many (including myself) disagree with the scope and execution of Gov. Tom Wolf’s rollout of measures to help stop the spread of covid-19, you can’t actually believe that his intent was to “attack” the state economy, or to “hurt the lives” of the people who elected him.
This kind of rhetoric only serves to sow mistrust of the people and institutions we need to rely on to get us through this. I have appreciated the Trib’s even-handed reporting of this crisis from its beginning, but this kind of posturing and mischaracterization at a time like this is not only irresponsible, but dangerous. The Trib needs to do better.
