(CNSNews.com) – Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee proposed Thursday that government officials who close down businesses because of the coronavirus should lose their paychecks too.In an interview with Fox News’s “America’s Newsroom,†Huckabee was called out government officials like California Gov. Gavin Newsom who had to apologize for violating his own rules when attending a dinner party at an expensive restaurant earlier this month wearing no mask and not social distancing....The former governor proposed “a fix to all this†whether it’s Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, Newsom, or D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser.“If you are a government official, and you shut other people's businesses down, you don't get paid cause If they lose their paycheck, and you are the one responsible, you don't get your paycheck. Let's see how that goes. I'm not being facetious about it. There is no skin in the game of these government officials,†Huckabee said.“They are making big decisions about the peasants like us who have to live by the rules, but they don't live by them, and they have no consequence. They don't lose a dime of their salary. They get taxpayer money, and it never goes away. Let it go away. Let them suffer consequences financially. You're gonna see this change,†he said.
