It's all about the $$$$
The State will never close the stores. Too much money involved. I believe what they should do, if they must, is keep open a few larger stores in certain areas and close some of the smaller stores, allow these employees to collect unemployment and pay those that wish to work a bonus or some form of incentive pay to remain working. If you must have booze, you'll just have to take a little drive to get it. My wife works in one of the stores and after seeing vehicle after vehicle coming in from NY, Mass, NJ, CT, she decided to take a voluntary leave of absence. NY is bailing out and the Task Force is very concerned that there may be many infected people that will spread the virus. Your health is not worth the risk. We'll just try to get by a while with the stimulus check that hopefully will come next month. Stay safe everyone.
