Imagine seeing this as a small business owner in a Democrat or RINO state where the governor shut everything down to "flatten the curve" for 14 days on day 75 while they continue campaigning about knowing how to fix the economy and stop COVID.

FTFY

The Democrats are like fleas that have forgotten the importance of the dog. What exactly do these leaches think is going to happen when they damage the productive members of the economy so badly that there is no more largesse to suck from? How many people world wide do you think are kept alive by America's excess? The money, food, and military protection we give away because our country is wealthy enough to spare some of our productive capacity with others? What happens in Africa when the food stops coming from America? Scarcer food means more expensive food. How many are too impoverished to eat? What happens in central and South America when the American dollars stop flowing in? Can these countries survive on tax revenue alone? What happens to China when American orders stop flowing in to the factories? When American investment dries up? How many hundreds of millions go without a paycheck? Do they revolt, or quietly starve?

Its not just blue states. We're doing a bunch of asinine shit here in Texas. That bitch Lina Hidalgo decided she can be a little despot over Harris country. And Greg Abbott folded like a cheap suit after the first story about a "surge" in cases here. Said it was unconstitutional to levy a fine for mask violations, then changed his tune a month later. Really pissed we don't have time to campaign for his replacement

The Govt put spending money in people's pockets and then decided which businesses were allowed to stay open. Some would say it worked exactly as designed...

Its a feature, not a bug. Now Target can donate to China in the form of supporting Biden. As intended.

If we don't destroy corporations by the end of this along with the rest of this corrupt bullshit then we're fucked.

Wait, are they counting the value of looted merchandise as earnings?

Insurance revenue from it? Probably looks like black Friday with emptied stores

I dont have to imagine. My governor said verbatim he wants to "suppress attendance" at my small business. I wont ever forget.

And that, ladies and gentlemen was your brief course on socialism 101, where the government decides who may or may not do business.

You can maximize profits by using lawfare (via crooked politicians) to put your competitors out of business, becoming wealthy as a result? who knew? --John D. Rockefeller

Seems like getting looted a bunch of times didnt affect its profits or image in the slightest

I agree but i think mass protests inside of Walmart’s and big box stores would be the most effective. Even a group of twenty going store to store. If anyone actually wants to organize these dm me
