——Wait till they see what managing this will look like.——
Actually it should be relatively easy...
Stores already have their scanning system set up to exempt certain items...
The receipt will split the items into two separate itemized totals...
You don’t get it... there has to be relative math performed now to ensure the state-mandated proportions are right. It is going to so not fly with “real paying customers.” It cannot take care of the situation where different categories of comestibles are purchased at different vendors... naw you have too many “rich foods” here compared to your “meager foods” you cannot check out!
Talk about a boon... to BUREAUCRACY.
Exactly.
Other states already have such limits, and they don’t seem to have much trouble administering it.
The receipt will split the items into two separate itemized totals...
*********************
It’s not exempt v. non-exempt ,, it’s the MASSIVE relational database needed to track EVERY item purchased so that later in the month a computation can be made to see if they are at 66% non-junk or 68.7% to approve or deny the purchase of a burrito at 7-11 ,, while the on-demand report is being compiled and analyzed the other people in line are just waiting and waiting...
and then you have the issue of comparing the good food to bad food purchases ... do you go by weight? suggested servings? or some other metric? Will buying one GIANT sized Doritos instead of two small bags be approved?
This will be unworkable... simply ban the junk food from the system...
