A San Francisco supervisor wants to require grocery stores to provide six months of notice before closing a location
A San Francisco lawmaker introduced a proposal that would require grocery stores in the city to provide six months of notice before closing a store and to explore a replacement supermarket at the vacated location.
Dean Preston, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, introduced what he calls the Grocery Protection Act – which is based on a proposal the board approved in 1984 that was vetoed by then-San Francisco Mayor Dianne Feinstein.
Preston's proposal would require grocery store owners to provide six months written notice to the Board of Supervisors as well as the Office of Economic and Workforce Development (OEWD). The store would also be required to post notices at all entries and exits as a means of informing customers and the general public.
...
The bill would also require that grocery stores "meet and work in good faith with neighborhood residents" and the OEWD to find a workable solution to keep groceries available at the location.
...
Under the legislation, any person affected by a grocery store's failure to comply with the requirements could initiate legal proceedings for damages, injunctive relief, declaratory relief, or a writ of mandate to remedy the violation.

Great plan to attract new grocery stores to the city. What could possibly go wrong?

If I had a grocery chain, I’d close all my stores in San Francisco on Monday.

[How do they plan on getting new grocery stores to replace the ones they’ve driven out?]
New World Order-style Government Grocery Stores that only accept EBT, SNAP and eventually, only the Mark of the Beast? /shiny side out
Controlling the masses is best done through starvation - FORCING people into a system where they can only BUY and SELL using approved methods. Cell Phone tied to bank account, credit card, debit card. Cash will be eliminated, IMHO.
It's quite simple to see where the world is heading - shopping and payment systems are evolving towards this.
When these things happen and they WILL happen - it will be the biggest life-changing event on planet Earth - Jesus said then shall be Great Tribulation such as never was
(Lurkers please click HERE OR on my screen name to see my FR homepage for more information - will open in a new window from HERE - God bless)Retail will be forced into installing more secure systems - When the Mark of the Beast comes I expect this kind of shopping to be rather "normal" in society - or will spread very quickly. ====
Revelation 14:9-12 King James Version (KJV)
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

(now this part just talks about them (eventually reigning) during the Millennial Reign of Christ)
Revelation 20:4 King James Version (KJV)
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

As I just posted....the following will not happen tomorrow, but eventually (in the middle of the 7 years of 'Peace and Security').

It won’t just be the existing stores that are affected, it will be any future business with half a brain. They’ll understand that it is critical to STAY CLEAR of SF, and every other California city.

Don’t even bother - just close the stores the minute it looks like it’s going to pass. No point in even trying.

This is more like Atlas Shrugged.
They punish businesses for "exploiting" people; then demand that businesses continue providing goods and services.

Government knows best, especially the governments in California.
So, let the government open up their own stores, with everything imaginable on those store shelves.
Then, keep the doors wide open, with signs that read: Help Yourselves to whatever you wish or need.
Replenish the goods as needed. Open 24/7/365, and call the stores, “Overdue Reparations”.
Walmarts and Targets and other neighborhood stores will be forced to compete by lowering their prices to $0,99 on everything. Biden won’t be able to accuse them of overcharging or being greedy. In fact, why not have the government take over all the supermarkets and department stores?
No more crimes with looting or breaking down doors or shooting store owners/managers/cashiers.
Biden and democrats will appreciate my idea. :)
And they can then claim a huge reduction in crime Plus democrats will have gained lifetime voters all over the country.

These BOTTOM RUNG goofyass politicians need to stay in their lanes. WHO THE HELL ARE THOSE AZHOS TO TELL A BUSINESSES THEY CAN’T CLOSE THEIR DOORS? These “supervisor” pimps need to grow up. They are not gods.

I’m going to try to keep on preaching the truth to this world
In some hope that many around the world will reject the Mark of the Beast during the Tribulation and save their eternal souls
Tribulation Saints they shall be.
And praying some get Saved right now, too.
