The county mandated an extra $5/hour which will cost Kroger $20M, so they just decided to close a bunch of stores.
When will the pols realize they can't force rules without consequences?
Answer: never :-(
- also from pug's linkDespite what appears to be a huge increase in gross earnings by grocery stores, the actual net earnings were way down, as operating costs were way up. Earnings for grocery stores have always been tight. COVID didn’t erase that, even with the binge purchasing. Mandating an extra $5 an hour for all employees is a massive increase in operating costs. And some stores have a smaller margin than others, especially in areas where theft is high

It looks like Cuomo is being thrown under the bus.

Cuomo's popularity was likely a threat to Kamala Harris, so he's gotta go.
Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
Mostly they don't. This is why there's so much squawking about "food deserts" in slums where there are no grocery stores, only bodegas selling potato chips and malt liquor. So some blue districts/states passed enterprise zone legislation, where they offer effectively tax subsidies to stores willing to open in those areas. It all depends on whether the costs of the crime outweigh the subsidies. Either that, or on whether the franchisee is an idiot, which they probably are for taking that bait.

Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
IMO, Cuomo's #metoo troubles are a complete red herring. "They" don't want a lot of questions being asked about how Democrat governors handled the Holocoughs, especially WRT nursing homes. If Cuomo is pinned on his fuck ups, then several more governors might get put under the microscope too.
You there, Ephialtes. May you live forever.
Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
Cuomo is being driven out by progressives because they want to have control of the tens of billions of dollars that will be incoming from Washington. It's a bonanza for them and they want to use it for their social experiments.

As far as i can tell, CNN only reaches people who want to comment on what a joke they are on Youtube clips.

Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
When I was a kid, the bullies decided that Wrangler’s were for dorks. We all switched to Levi’s and I have never looked back.
(Actually, that’s not true. I have worn LL Bean and Banana Republic for decades).
Anyway, it’s a great essay.

Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
Way back in 1969 when I started buying my own clothes .... Levi's were $5 and both Wrangler's and Lee's. Were $4. Both 20% less.
A sign of the both quality difference and demand for Levi's?

Seattle’s King County says bike helmets are racist.
https://thepostmillennial.com/seattle-k ... law-racism
https://thepostmillennial.com/seattle-k ... law-racism
However, many residents were quick to point out that this was likely designed to protect the "homeless" who are normally seen on the streets riding stolen bike shares cycles. Parts of the cycles as well as cycles stolen from neighbors are commonly found in homeless encampments around the city, many containing chop shops for bicycle parts.

Re: The Left is Eating Itself Pt. II
That’s right. I stand corrected and I’m sorry for the clickbait.
I agree with Pug that if enforcement is problem, enforcement is what they should correct. Because if they throw out bike helmet requirements altogether, it almost looks like they’re saying the helmet requirement is the problem. Or that the enforcement problem is insurmountable.
