“In addition to that, all citizens will be required to change their underwear every half hour. Underwear will be worn on the outside so we can check.”

Do you ever want to order some food, but when you go to Uber Eats, DoorDash, or Postmates, you’re put off by the cost once fees are added?
Well, Gov. Jay Inslee is here to help — both you and restaurants struggling during the pandemic.
Inslee is placing a cap on fees charged by third-party delivery platforms, such as Uber Eats, DoorDash, GrubHub, Postmates and others.
Taking effect at 12:01 a.m. Nov. 25, the cap on delivery fees will be set at 15% and total fees at 18% of the purchase price of an order.
Since the rise of COVID-19, third-party delivery services have helped fill the void for restaurants that have pivoted to takeout, but don’t offer their....
“We recognize the challenges posed by COVID-19 to our restaurant community, and we’re grateful to third-party delivery platforms that have made it possible for Washingtonians to continue supporting local restaurants, and allowed many businesses to stay open,” Inslee said.
“However, these are difficult times. We all must sacrifice during these uniquely challenging times to both support our businesses and slow the spread of COVID-19. We encourage Washingtonians to support their local restaurants safely through delivery and take-out options that are available.”
For more information on this proclamation, go to the Governor’s website.
Perhaps because Inslee has such a heart for eateries he shut down, he could pass the hat around at the state capital for donations from those ‘essential’ gubmint workers.
Lol
Does the governor of Washington have the authority to decree the fee structure of these meal delivery services?
Yeah, I tend to discount the opinions of pukes like Inslee and his minions who are getting guaranteed paychecks.
So instead of just the restaurants suffering, lets reduce the earnings of the delivery people also! Shared misery!
There is no problem so great that government can not make worse.
So put the food delivery companies out of business with the restaurants. Ain’t communism wonderful.
Time to kick the Left Coast out of America so they could reestablish the Soviet Union.

The recent election will result, if it sands, in bringing the left coast over all of the land mass formerly known as the USA, now the new USSR.
Yes it will really help restaurants to drive the delivery services out of business.
Also, they will just refuse any orders below a threshold they will be profitable.
The government does not have the right to set fees one business charges another.
Can he force them to stay in business when they go broke?
Your just mad because socialist price fixing works/sarc
The single most effective thing Inslee could do to help the delivery people and their customers is to LOWER THE GASOLINE TAX!
We all know THAT will never happen
