It is only a matter of time until he can no longer repair the bicycles of the "essential workers" so they can commute to work simply because he doesn't have the parts to do so.

I read article after article nowadays saying the same thing. There is only so long you can shut down a "non-essential" business, before you discover that the "non-essential" business is essential to some other "essential" business.
Any business is essential to its owner and employees. Time to get back to business whether it hurts or not.

Agree 100%. Any job that puts food on the table for a person or persons is "essential".

There are no lines at ANY hospital in NJ, but the lines at food banks stretch back hours, and are getting worse.

There are long lines for food hand outs in Houston, but you've got to consider that there are plenty of people who will just try to get all the free shit they can, whether they need it or not, so how many of those folks are truly needy might be up for debate. I have no doubt that if you lost your job and had no savings, that you might legitimately be queuing up for hours for free food.

The "whisper read" here is that most of those lining up for food are illegal aliens who were the first to lose their income when the cash economy shut down. I'm not saying I know one way or the other, but it would make sense that this reality would contribute to our uber-liberal governor's sudden reversal of view.
