There was another article I saw earlier about a man driving 60 miles to get a haircut. Personally, I'd rather wait, but to each their own.
i've been driving roughly 40 every month and change for the past i dunno, 2 years cause i really trust the girl that cuts it and she moved down south

my shit was looong when the restrictions went into place so i was my sisters guinea pig and she actually did a really good job. probably gonna save myself some money going forward now

Holy shit, that's a big about-face.
I assume you are talking about having sports without spectators in June, because the rest of what is proposed by Newsom will do very little to help small business owners who are losing their businesses.

I'm not sure why people seem to want to keep pinning small business problems on a state governor. The real blame falls on whoever those people owe money to, which is almost always a major bank. It's not turtles all the way down, at some point somewhere, someone owns all this shit, maybe they could stop being :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: and give people a break?

It was the whole second tweet, really. That was initially 'phase 3' (IN store retail, hair/nail salons, freakin casinos) high risk stuff. between most counties meeting new criteria and haircuts coming back that's a pretty abrupt change in tone. I have to assume they revised the "14 days of falling cases" or whatever to what a lot of folks here were asking for, r=1 (rate steadily climbing, one person infects on average one person instead of more). But I can't seem to find that anywhere.
 
Yeah didn't we post earlier the Small Business Owners were actually getting screwed by the big banks 'processing' issues, and that aid was disproportionately going to towns with smaller community banks?

I think the state bungled unemployment and many other public services but the cares act specifically is a big middle finger from elsewhere.

I'm a small business owner as well, for what it's worth.

My understanding is that most banks are offering some type of relief on these loans.

And I'm sure circumstances are different for every small business owner, but for many of them, their major expenses are rent, payroll, and inventory.
None of those payments go to banks, and those other businesses are probably counting on this money from the other small businesses to pay their own rent, payroll, inventory, etc.
When there's a huge group of businesses not operating, it hurts everybody.

Rent is the major issue for many right now. Commercial real estate in particular is a bit of a shit show at the moment in california. Even the SBs running tight have some money set aside for payroll and such for a bad month or two, but those coffers empty quickly when there's literally NO income and no relief vs. some income and any relief.
