Will everyone who is so vehemently waving the flag of small buisness support, actually step up and support small businesses when allowed?
Tell the board the name of your small business so we can spread the word to not support it, since it wouldn’t have made any difference anyway according to you.

Sounds like OP is looking for someone to blame for when one or both of his businesses go under and cannot return.
Spoiler alert, the fault lays at the feet of government not the patrons who were bared from supporting his business by said government.

This is so good, we should put it on a piece of paper and let it be the document to base our country on. Oh wait.... nevermind, that will never work. Sad more people don't understand it honestly.

Ask the majority on here and Covid was a hoax to begin with. They will be the ones to resume their normal life like nothing happened.
Ask the majority of doctors and scientists and they will tell you COVID-19 killed fat old people at a higher than normal rate. COVID-19 was literally the fricking flu for people under 65 who were not fat fricks. And COVID-19 was 10x safer than the flu for people under 18.
Shutting down the world for that is an absolute hoax.
Sorry you are retarded.

Let the free market make these decisions.

My question is for all the people looking to place blame wherever they can, where will they place it when they can no longer blame the government.
The blame from here on out is the government.
Should’ve opened earlier. Our government’s overreach and overreaction will last years for some families.

I'm sure many customers will stay home and many businesses will initially stay closed. To me, this is a good thing, as a "soft opening" is probably best.

Drive around midday on a Saturday & Sunday. You don't need to get out of your car, just drive by the larger retail stores. People aren't staying home now. If you allow small businesses to reopen, the consumers will be able to stop spending all of their money at the big box chains and go back to their local neighborhood stores.

I will take my family of 5 to my favorite restaurant on day 1 and I will tip the entire cost of the meal to the staff who suffered through the takeout nonsense and remained loyal to the place.

We may be able to survive without restaurants but we won’t be able to survive adding 3 million a week to unemployment.

I truly hope this whole ordeal creates a new liberty movement. It's obvious that neither R or D are remotely concerned with civil liberties.

Take a ride over to Home Depot today and ask yourself this question again. And that's before we open things back up.
People arent staying home now.

Not this guy. I will patronize the businesses that do open as much as I possibly can.

Well this is the most traffic I've seen since this started. This was like holiday traffic out there. Aboslute state.
Your little theory isn't holding up.

The first ones to go eat out, go to the movies, etc., are going to be the same people who have been basically ignoring protocols all this time anyway....in other words, the people most likely to be carrying this shite.
No thanks. I'll give it some time to see how things shake out.
