We are getting a taste of Venezuela style socialism. Our President needs to point out this is what socialism looks like and ask people if we want to continue down this path of empty grocery shelves or get back to work and make sure we never have to live this way again.
Exactly. I carried in several bags of bags to recycle. I asked if they were still accepting them? The woman said "Yes, but at the other end that is closed off." Seeing the container on the exit side of the rope, I asked why I cant just put them in there? Before she could answer and I could cross their barrier, the young man wiping the carts down took them from me, ducked under their rope and disposed of them. You give the Stuffmart clerk a little bit of "authority" and they'll wield it beyond common sense and reason.
This truly symbolizes the risk if the shutdown continues much longer. People turning others in, google capturing our gps data and alerting big brother we're too close to someone else. Pardon my french, but screw that.
Excellent point.
