I just saw this on the news today and all I can say is, SOMEONE must be listening to my opinions on Facebook!!! Weeks ago, I suggested that KY needs to create a hotline to report businesses not following the distancing rules...and BAM, the next week, KY creates a hotline for this very purpose!


Then, I was posting a few days ago, that these 'essential stores' need to stop selling 'non essential' products...and NOW, this is happening!!! WOW.


But seriously, this will be easy to enforce, the stores will just block off sections, this is what Lowes had done when I went there earlier today, they used lumber and buckets to block off the non essential sections. Should be pretty easy for Walmart, Target and those dept stores too, they can use the rope barriers they use during Christmas shopping, and I would imagine Loss prevention will be charge of enforcing it.

Why should they stop selling nonessential items? And what exactly is considered nonessential. I don't think anyone should tell us what we can buy and can't buy.

I go to Target for essential and nonessential items. Saves me a trip going elsewhere or paying shipping costs to order online.


Progressives love control, don't they?

Definition of socialism

I'm sure if Costco has any copies of Das Kapital that will be considered "essential".
