the sales tax revenues the governments rely on a monthly basis will be 80-90% less next month.
Aren't stores having trouble keeping anything on the shelves? Don't people pay sales tax on those items?
Where is your 80-90% less number coming from?

Retail grocery sales are only a part of salea tax revenue. There's a lot of heavy equipment, building materials, etc. not being sold right now. Nobody's buying any $5,000 John Deere lawn tractors or $500,000 John Deere combines.

Restaurants, gyms, movie theatres, casinos, you know everything else besides your local rouses.
