There are tens of millions of potential customers in ‘LaHood’ (a little RINO terminology). The ones that choose to not work are loaded with food stamps and can buy virtually anything in a supermarket. Because of this situation, the big chains would LOVE to serve those markets.
So, it’s up to Atlanta. If you don’t want to put criminals in jail, you won’t have the nice supermarkets. If you are willing to put criminals in jail, you will have the nice supermarkets.
It is up to the elected officials there, which means ultimately the voters - and, so far, they have chosen to go without the supermarkets.
They have changed the register monitors in a certain mega chain in TX where you cannot see unless you are right up near the cashier what the payee is using to pay for groceries. I stand and look up to see if groceries are Lone Star Card or their own credit card.
I think they also changed the Lone Star Card to look less like a big star and more like a bank card....hide the pride of bilking taxpayers!!!
