So where will the customers eat then? Are they all cooking for themselves?

TV dinners.

If the sauce is not too blue.

A lot of brides are going to have to learn to cook.

Didn't they learn that in Home Ec?

Post # 5 —I agree. It’s going to get a lot worse. That seems to be the goal.

I had a conversation with a friend of mine who owns an accounting firm. He confirmed what this article is saying. Well over 50% of his client’s businesses will never reopen. I said to him, “It seems as if the powers that be have a goal: to destroy the middle class.“ He paused for a moment or two, and nodded his head in agreement.

COVID-19 is just a means to an end. The end game is “the great reset“ that the world economic forum and the united nations are touting. This January, the elites will meet at Davos Switzerland to finalize its implementation. It’s nothing but global Marxism and totalitarianism. And it’s coming.

I agree (see two year old tag line). But they have jumped the shark with this one. They have been losing all over the world and this is their final and last gasp. It’s their scorched earth solution.

In fact, a better analogy is, it is their “Tet Offensive”. And make no mistake, the Viet Cong lost that on on the battlefield. They only one in the US MSM, but the MSM is no longer in control. The next year will be epic. Those that survive it will have great stories to tell their grandchildren.

In Chicago, 99% of the trendy restaurants downtown and near North are owned by Far left Liberals who supported Mayor Lighthead. When she shut down everything and kept extending the lock downs, not one of her restaurant owners/supporters said a peep.

SCS reports that Lighthead goes to Restaurants and checks to see if they are following her social distancing rules. So, they can all go out of business because of their Mayor.

This is an I Don’t Care moment.

“Not if the forest fire is so hot it sterilizes the ground..nothing will grow there again”

Yeah, that isnt going to be the case, no matter how much we like to lean pessimistic.

Around me there have been a few restaurants that closed for sure. New places are already coming in.

While I would like the globalist to lose this battle, I wouldn’t bet the farm on it. They’ve planned it for centuries - literally. Scripture foretells of a global tyranny. I don’t know if it’s six months from now, a year from now, 10 years from now, or 50 years from now. But it will happen someday. It seems like they keep throwing fastball strikes, and we keep swinging madly to no avail.

People will go out, but most of the people who would have served them likely won’t be there to do it.

In NYS, Cuomo and the legislature has made human labor just too damned expensive. And, thanks to way they’ve jiggered subsequent minimum wage hikes, that will not change.

Karl Denninger has said the same thing for a while.

Even before the Covid-related assumption of arbitrary power to shut down commerce...with all the employee obligations and regulations added on over the years, who in their right mind would start a business in this environment?

"What age group do you think this will hurt? Probably the young people."

It will affect everyone regardless of age.

It’s working exactly as planned, small businesses close, the big box stores and chain restaurants prosper.

Thanks to obamacare, business’s only pay for 29/hrs part time like in the grocery business. I guess restaurants too.
Make far more staying home.

It is National Economic Security and Recovery Act (NESARA) was a set of proposed economic reforms for the United States. In other we are heading for a reset. All debts will be forgiven. We are returning back to the Gold Standard.
