Would never have believed it if someone said Manhattan could be destroyed by an object that can’t be seen with the naked eye. But Rumsfield warned about this post-9/11.

Of course they can’t.
Cuomo and De Bozo have killed the Restaurant Industry.

But all their employee’s are getting a ton of free cash, it is the Small Business owners who are the Real Targets, unfortunately all those getting their free check will be casualties very soon too.

I’m surprised even 17% still have the ability to pay

I wonder if the list includes large corporations like McDonald’s?

They probably can’t pay their taxes either.

Many, if not most restaurants in Manhattan have had thin margins to begin with.

I think this would be an ideal time to eliminate the police in NYC.

Liberal Hellhole to the max. No bailouts or any more Unemployment help, either.

I’d say by the time Trump wins in November most NYC restaurants will be bankrupt and closed.

Hey, take your grievances to Gracie Mansion. Your produce has to be rotten enough by now to put a real stink on deblasio’s fortress of ineptness.

The various shutdowns were unappealable death sentences for some fraction of restaurants.

15.7% unemployment rate in NYS.

And I don’t think it’s going down any time soon thanks to Il Duce and our rubber stamp legislature.

I saw an article that listed just some of the volume of restaurant supply equipment, and full restaurants, that are for sale just on the FB marketplace. I feel bad for all those small businesses and hope they can get through it for the better in the end, one way or another.

As for Robert DeNiro and his sushi chain and hotel, well, I guess he’s a friendly fire casualty of the left.

It appears like the state is just another gangster with their taxes.

The state caused the shutdown, but you still have to pay them a percentage even if your income is curtailed.

Meanwhile, the actual city can’t afford to be

The question rises, does the city deserve to be?
