What is funny is that I enjoy FR for the reason being, I can scan dozens of thread quickly looking for something to actually spend time reading.

The solution to supermarket checkout and bank teller lines has been available for decades and can be implemented everywhere immediately and we'll forget in less than one attention span cycle we ever had to wait in line.

I didn't read it all either, but the Left usualy takes the position that we should learn to sacrifice, which is what we'll all be doing when they get power, or when Republicans finish becoming leftists. Anyhow, IMO, this "sacrifice" thing that they are always pushing is part of the general desire of the Left to deconstruct civilization, so no surprise if they want everyone to wait around forever at the pleasure of bureaucrats.

5 min on hold, 15 minutes in line ... not instant gratification ... I have better things to do than wait.

John Vivian, 72, of Lantana, Fla., can wait "hours" on hold on the phone. "I spent 23 years in the military and if you spent 23 years in the military, you don't lose your patience." Haha! Exactly. The Navy has definitely given me the ability to tolerate long lines. On an aircraft carrier, I sometimes spend 45 minutes in line for chow. Beats work. And then there's the line for the smokepit after it reopens from a General Quarters drill. Lots of wasted manhours standing in that one!
Anyways, the rest of the world must be asking, "What's a line?" After traveling to many countries I have come to the conclusion that a orderly queue is a uniquely American concept. Everywhere else in the world, it seems to be "Mob Rule" particularly in the former Soviet Union.

At one time America had milk truck businesses that would deliver fresh milk, eggs and orange juice to your "milk chute" at home. No waiting in line. If that service came back, I'd subscribe.
