I don't necessarily agree with this, but I understand the frustration of not being able to open. My parents were also small business owners for many years, and they didn't have a ton of money put away for an emergency like this pandemic. Margins were always tight, and they could never stay closed for 1 week, let alone 2 plus months. Many small businesees are on the verge of going out of business. Also, he does make a point. Why are large businesses able to stay open, and skirt the 25 customer limit rule? I visited WaWa just yesterday and immediately left. The store was PACKED. Social distancing was non existent. People were standing very close to one another. The parking lot was PACKED, and their gas pumps were at least 2 cars deep. That is on 10 pumps. Many of the customers weren't wearing masks at the pumps. I also didn't know that cigarettes and hoagies were considered essential either. Inside was a mad house. I live at the shore and Memorial Day is just around the corner. There are so many people here. SMH...
I also think it's redicilous that restaurants are allowed to serve liquor for takeout. This is just only going to encourage consumption while driving. It's just a stupid idea. The boardwalk is now open. Along with the beach. The boardwalk is open because the mayor has a few businesses on the boardwalk. You see. All you need to do is follow the money. People are so gullible. My hairstylist was forced to close, yet the dog grooming business is allowed to stay open. Supposedly, Murphy has a relative who owns a dog grooming business. Just follow the money.
