If the business doesn't have the strength to fight this tyranny then they don't need my business.

Haven't changed so much to mask mandates but stores product variety is low, many times out off products. Either i go to 3-5 stores to get Everything and then still don't come home with a completed shopping list so forced to order on line for much of it.

I will not go into a shop that does not require a mask. If they care that little about their workers and customers they do not get my business.

I will not support a business that pushes this nonsense on customers. Wear one if you want, but kneeling to this tryany will only keep the cycle going.

There are several places I will no longer shop/eat due to the way they responded to the Covid 19 restrictions. I really appreciate the places that are still masked up and those are the places that we will continue to patronize.

I like not getting sick, so I shop in places that have a "Mask Required" sign on the door.

It's just not right to think that having the freedom not to wear a mask is more important than than the lives of our children that currently can not be vaccinated. I will not shop at businesses that think putting children's lives in danger is acceptable. Shame on them.

I prefer they don't and I will shop more locally because people have struggled so much. Honestly I don't care much either way.

If a mask is required where I shop, I respect that and wear it. And make sure people stay away from me, and I stay away from them. Really very simple.

I believe the administration is colluding with large companies to put small businesses out of business. They can't find workers, are overburden by regulations and the media is putting undue fear into the public. More than ever we need to support local businesses.

I only shop and dine where there are no mask mandates. I am vaccinated and I have no pity for the ignorant, uneducated and uninformed.

The strategic oil reserves are for times like this. We should also keep an eye on the oil companies and make sure they are not making extreme profits off the backs of the American citizens. After all that petroleum is being pumped from American taxpayers land that has been leased to these oil co.

No, the reserve is not for time like this, it is for times when we don't have oil available. We do have oil available now, and a LOT of oil available. It is just that Biden (and pseudo-environmentalists) don't want us to use it.

The US shouldn't be relying on foreign sources of energy when we have more than enough to be energy independent again. We were energy independent just over one year ago. But that ended on day one of this administration.

Absolutely! Prices are way too high! Just another attempt of oil companies taking advantage of a big situation like in the 1970's.

Explain why oil companies would not provide as much oil as possible at a time when prices are sky high. No, the prices are high due to speculation of shortage, given Biden's refusal to open up the spigot (the oil leases he claimed unused are not proven, exploration still necessary. ANWAR is KNOWN

We may need our reserves for war before this is over. Increase supply and lower costs by reversing Biden's orders and policies. https://americansforprosperity.org/biden-policies-raising-gas-prices/?fbclid=IwAR3jOvKpxrWnyT1iz2JrBflODu-aV7aHZdj_B4JgTndUI-8XFvAwXp3M1Jw

Absolutely not. Oil prices (and therefore gas prices) would drop dramatically if Congress would just reverse the disastrous executive orders Biden has put into effect restricting U.S. oil production.

Why tap into a reserve that is meant for when Oil is unavailable? We have plenty of oil available, it is just that irrational environmentalists don't want us to use it: https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2022/03/07/greenpeace_environmentalism_allowed_putin_to_invade_ukraine_820399.html

These letters allow people who can't financially compete with investors the opportunity to stand out.

It's your property, you should be able to use whatever information you want to decide the sale. Say I'd rather sell my property to a local family instead of a corporate developer that should be my choice.

Yes they should. That is how I sold a piece of real estate I had. Happened four years ago. Was given a higher offer from a developer but I went with the people that sent me the letter. I was able to pick who was going to live next door to me. Have never regreted it. They are the best neighbors!
