We have 200 years of legal precedent backed by the Supreme Court for state measures to combat public health issues. We have countless instance of the types of quarantines we have witness throughout U.S. History and even Texas history. Courts were re-affirming these state powers as recently as the 2014 Ebola Outbreak.
We shouldn't invent an alternate and fictitious history and then use that fantasy land for political debate. The rules have nearly always been the same. The legitimacy of their application is probably a more fertile topic for discussion.
when have we had businesses closed down by executive order? with no end date given?
