Sounds about right.
This killing of small businesses in California was rampant and still is hammering them.
Our wonderful governor had dance classes and exercise class being held in parking lots.
We have heard that at least 35% of small food businesses went belly up with the on again and off again B$.
Yup! Then you have really stubborn small business owners that refuse to die. Thank God I didn’t need a store front.
Huge middle class wipeout agenda.
Totalitarian city of Burbank cut power, phones at Tinhorn Flats Saloon & Grill..

Not about a virus.
all according to plan.
The elites prefer a small number of large corporations they can control, so small businesses must go.there
bttt
Wasn’t that hard, was it ?
Why restaurants though ?
Elimination of the kulaks.
If you supply your own water and power, they will build a wall around your business. If you break through that wall, they will bulldoze your building.
You couldn’t help but notice, as the big Chinese product peddlers like Walmart remained opened, but all the small businesses across the street were all shut down.
A win win for places like China mart.
Marxists (and THEY are Marxists) always want to destroy the Kulak class early.
All in the Democrat/Socialist playbook.
But more importantly the lock downs were a gift to the Butchers of Beijing. China has enjoyed a 10 year boost in its plan to put the entire world in a death grip.
Some people near me bought and worked on fixing up a restaurant, had their new sign up and had a grand opening date set, then the plandemic hit. It was going to be a rib joint. We generally only had a three week lockdown in MO, outside of the cities, but restaurants had special rules. Any restaurant that has a drive-thru, is still drive-thru only. Mostly the big burger chains and an Applebees that’s pick up only. Subway to their benefit remained open with normal sit down and no distancing that I noticed. Small hardware/lumber stores stayed open but did the mask and distancing and limits on occupancy. They’re operating as normal now and have been for months. MFA feed store closed their lobby and you had to call in your orders. That lasted a couple of months. One grocery store ditched the masks a couple of weeks ago and I’m badgering a different one to ditch theirs. Convenient store is weird. They wear masks behind the counter with a plexiglas shield but as soon as they step out from behind the counter, off comes the mask. Another convenient store ditched the masks a few months ago. It all comes down to how autonomous a business is. Some have orders being handed down from the headquarters in some city somewhere. Some can make all their own decisions.
Thanks, this news was never published in N. California, that I know:
