While I don’t agree with people losing their lives and such when they get busted, just deciding it’s no longer illegal to steal isn’t exactly fixing stuff. Brick and mortars already a slim margin proposition vs online, especially in the cities, free passes to shoplift with impunity only going to expedite the death March of physical stores

Yep. Pharmaceuticals moving online and being shipped directly, especially QoL meds, are killing CVS et al.
Feel bad for some, but the reality is, there is no reason why my dad should need to go to a physical CVS store for his diabetes meds or my mom's thyroid medication.
It's the same fear mongering over alcohol being shipped but the reality is, it's someone wanting to keep their fiefdom profitable.

politicians aren't real people, they have to be as woke as possible to get headlines and be relevant. the consequences of their stupid policies have no impact on their lives
