It's a problem when businesses are not selling to people without a mask in many cities. Not much to do about that, the businesses I guess fear the state shutting them down, and people need supplies. Also, it's technically not a big deal on its own, but I would draw the line here and only for a couple more months until election.

I got the sense that some businesses around me, big and small, are run by total idiots. They aren't afraid of the state shutting them down, they are just more of the idiots who believe everything they see on the news without any critical thinking whatsoever. They are the ones who believe the entire population has the virus and that the one person who enters their business without a mask is going to make them personally ill, even if they aren't out on the floor.

It's pretty sad that we live in a country where shitty businesses with bad business models pretty much run the entire show. My state did NOT have mandatory masks in its EO, businesses MADE them mandatory, so the entire population here ended up thinking the governor made them mandatory because they do whatever big business says. When you know damn well the manager of your nearest grocery store was probably a high school dropout who got a D in biology.

Good point, yeah. Some of these rules make no sense anyway, like using masks in a restaurant until you sit down at your table. So dumb.
