not true at all. but i can see how you might think that (at least down the road).
the truth is that many grocery stores run at the margin, and in some cases are always close to getting closed down.
usually poor neighborhoods are impacted most, because of theft or other things you can start blaming...
they also don't sell high mark up items like stores where germans and hortas shop.
parent companies like kroger get a lot of bad publicity when they shut down a store so they often carry a loss if small.
Then that's on them no sympathy. Plenty of restaurants close down each year (before covid bs) due to improper management of food prices.
and that's how people that are poor already are forced to shop at convenience stores and get gyped even more.
but hey, as long as union folks can afford a new car and phone every other year.
Enter the teachers unions now, refusing to go to work. These are some of the most pampered individuals on the planet. I suppose they're holding out for pay raises, paying them even more to sit home. Afraid of the virus, my ass. May their fate match that of the keystone pipeline boys.
'the same to everyone'? that's what democrats/communists are working toward. Does 'from each according to their ability, to each'...sound familiar? What could go wrong?
Kamala's outfits, and Biden's dog will dominate the news, alternated with the occasional Trump, or Reagan whipping and the opening of a recreation center for transgender veterans.
Interesting, so all teachers are at home right now? "Paying them even more", your ignorance is hilarious.

quite right. i watched as teachers 'occupied' the wisconsin state capital for 10 days, literally breaking in, leaving $450,00 in damages to the building and grounds. Why? Governor Walker made union membership voluntary, and declined to make the state take their dues out of their paychecks and forward it to the union. Oh my god! Neither the union nor teachers were held responsible for the damages. The union then sponsored and promoted the 'recall' of the governor, which failed. Meanwhile, some gradeschool teachers were proudly having students make placards supporting the teachers union, and marching their students around the schoolgrounds, teaching them the basics of peaceful protest. Pampered, spoiled child-like doesn't begin to describe it.
Now, look at chicago. teachers have been happily collecting paychecks at home for a year, and they still don't want to work. all about the children, right?
Cool, I watched as Trump supporters stormed the capital and caused damage. I guess that makes me and all Trump supporters domestic terrorists.
While we are casting large baseless and factless claims. A small number of white people are in the KKK, all white people are racist.
What about the teachers and their unions that haven't protested going back to school?
What about the teachers currently working at school?
You do realize teachers still teach, grade assignments , lesson plan,, make help videos and have one on one sessions with students from home correct?
Sounds like an anti-gun liberal just from the other side of the aisle. Ignorance is bliss.

And then we could use such a mythical fuel to fuel power plants to recharge electric vehicles!
Instant effect to this immediately- my two favorite cashiers at the local grocery GONE and everyone had to check out their own groceries even at 8pm! If I ring up and bag my own groceries I should get a discount or something. I hate delivery because you get the worst of the perishables (like the bruised bananas).
Seriously? I haven't seen those since David Lee Roth wore them back in a Van Halen concert 1981-1982? For those needing a visual: 4:29ish
Hhmm...can't we just use free energy that was found by back-engineered Roswell remnants? The patents are out there...they were just bought out to be shelved. Anyone in for a SH C5e kumbaya to get an upgraded version?
There ya go!
Your ignorance is showing, no such thing as “free energy” it’s literally against the laws of physics. And, if you critically think at about a 6th grade level, you would understand that hydrocarbons ARE literally solar energy. Lol
Nope. They can be used to store it, but they aren't "solar energy".
I am 100% supportive of the use of our own natural resources, through fracking, pipelines, etc. Use it while we have it and need it. It is very naive to think that there aren't energy resources beyond and superior to our current modalities, including hydrogen, cold fusion, nuclear etc. Maybe AI will come up with it when humans limit themselves.

Cold fusion isn't a viable remedy. It is thought to be impossible by most scientist. Japan is the only country putting money into the research. No one is looking at cold fusion as an alternative fuel source. Hydrogen, transfer of energy isn't that great and is deficient at best. You need a lot of hydrogen to make a little energy.
Hydrogen gas is extracted from water by a technique known as electrolysis, which involves running a high electric current through water to separate hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The electrolysis process is pretty expensive since it involves high energy expenditures.
Then you talk about nuclear energy. I can't believe anyone would think that this energy source is viable in a world wide venue.
The cost of building a nuclear energy plant is VERY expensive. Some say incredibly expensive.
With the limited use of today, we have stockpiles of nuclear waste. Talk about a danger to the environment! Where would we store these spent fuel rods when we have 100,000 nuclear plants needing a location on the earth to store these spent rods?
Now lets talk about accidents. Sure a oil fuel spill is terrible but it doesn't compare to just 1 nuclear accident. Do you really want to have, let just say 10,000 nuclear power plants being operated by mankind ? At what ratio would you consider an acceptable accident rate? The answer has to be ZERO. Do you think that anything mankind develops will every have that kind of safety record? I don't.
I'd like to see mankind work on making the fuel sources, we have now, MORE energy efficient. By making them more energy efficient, they will produce less byproducts. Look at what we have done to coal. We've produced much more efficient ways to burn it and thus produce less polluting byproducts.
We can do this.
molten salt SMRs could get rid of the waste from conventional reactors, and there is no risk of meltdowns or radioactive steam.
Something to ruminate on.
I'll bet the union/unions will be looking for blue votes from their members in the midterms.
Wonder why that is?...

They may not get them after the pipe fitter fiasco and the possibility of Ford moving Ohio production to Mexico.
I know several that still love Trump. Anyway, does voting even matter anymore?
I'm more pointing out that the union leadership will still be tied to team blue not matter
what theyve done to the membership.

Voting matters because it part of the ruse , so pull the lever and go home and watch the results they give you on TV which makes it look official
Sounds like a new game. Kinda like filling out the march madness bracket.
List all the races and see who's got the best lineup after the election

the dems protect the unions' ability to unfairly extort union members, employers and protect criminals, do nothings and fuckups.
there are teachers that get paid to do nothing, because they cannot be in a room with kids but cannot be terminated.
in return, the unions help fund the democrat campaigns.
700 NYC teachers paid to do nothing
Hundreds of New York City public school teachers accused of offenses ranging from insubordination to sexual misconduct are being paid their full salaries to sit around all day.

If your young its a good gig because you can party all night and get paid to sleep all day. Got to be boring as hell to do that for 20 years.the dems protect the unions' ability to unfairly extort union members, employers and protect criminals, do nothings and fuckups.

Father worked for Johnson and Johnson as a machinist which was union which he had to adapted to coming from the private sector. Everything he was use to doing had to be slowed down not to upset the apple cart. One day one of the guys in the shop took his chair and sat by the window. So happens that day one of the Johnson's comes to visit the company and noticed this guy siting by the window. He asked the man what he was doing and he responded I'm watching the trains going by do you have a problem ? The man had no idea who he was, the next day the supervisor of the shop instructed this guy that his new position was to sit by the window to watch the trains go by, he lasted a week and then quit.
Trains are so much safer than pipelines

Train derails and explodes into flames
The freight train was carrying highly flammable fertiliser and nearby residents have been evacuated.

Reminds me of my days hauling extremely flammable high-gravity crude oil from wells to the pipeline terminal - think gasoline without any additives. The "rule of thumb" they taught new drivers transporting it was this: if your tanker catches fire, get out and RUN until you think you're at a safe distance, then turn around and hold your thumb up at arms length - if your thumb doesn't cover ALL the flames... KEEP RUNNING!!!Trains are so much safer than pipelines

And our leftist moron-in-chief wants to help Warren Buffet transport freakin' trainloads full of this stuff through the middle of towns and cities instead of putting it in a pipeline where it belongs. Politics uber alles.
