TKC TOLD YOU SO!!! RAE'S CAFÉ MOVES TO METH TOWN!!!

The COVID plague exacerbated the great divide betwixt small biz and local government officials. 

By most accounts . . . Kansas City metro politicos didn't really offer much consideration to small time operators whilst the box stores and corporate food chains were able to devise their own rules. 

Accordingly . . .

TKC TOLD YOU SO: RAE'S CAFÉ BOLDLY ABANDONS BLUE SPRINGS AFTER COVID COURT FIGHT!!!

As TKC readers point out . . . They'd still be in Jackson County . . .

However the article notes . . .

"The owner did not want to disclose the exact location, but did say the location would be near Missouri 291. Independence has its own health department and does not have a mask requirement."

Nevertheless . . .

The very BEST & BRIGHTEST TKC TIPSTERS signaled this move back in early October and today the announcement is official.

Skeptics might argue that a small restaurant leaving town isn't a big deal . . . But the smell of blood and money travels far . . .

The reality is that the courthouse made an example out of these biz owners and their overt submission was required to make a living. Reality check: Most Americans don't like to be ordered to work on their knees and now that the mask protocols are expiring soon . . . All that's left is hard feelings. 

Worse still . . . 

The restaurant COVID orders were always questionable . . . Nobody ever explained to us how people couldn't get COVID while they were sitting down and eating but the second customers stood up . . . They needed to mask and keep their distance. Any "science" behind this charade is questionable and what's more likely is that silly restaurant etiquette was devised on a whim like most rules governing the public. Don't get it twisted . . . COVID likely remains a danger for restaurant patrons & workers and that's why a great many people still choose to avoid public dining rooms.

Again . . .

The important part of this story is that the divide betwixt small biz & local government officials has worsened and won't likely recover any time soon.
