The Hypocrisy of COVID Versus Economy

The Hypocrisy of COVID Versus Economy
|Updated:

Every day, tens of thousands of people safely shop at big box retail and grocery stores where respectful San Diego shoppers obey the mask, social distancing, and sanitation protocols. Churches, museums, restaurants, and the zoo are now open, but to a limited 25 percent capacity. Legoland, street fairs, and wedding venues have yet to open while liquor stores and marijuana dispensaries operate unabated.

While big-box retailers thrive, many small businesses are not afforded the same opportunity to serve customers and put their employees back to work. If the safety protocols work for businesses with thousands of customers and hundreds of employees, why shouldn’t the same safety protocols work for all businesses?
