San Francisco continues to suffer business losses according to a KPIX report that states more than half of all of the city’s storefronts have closed down due to COVID-19.

The report cites a new survey by the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce.

“The survey showed only 46 percent of storefront businesses in San Francisco that were open at the beginning of the pandemic are still operating,” Jay Cheng, a spokesman of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, told KPIX. Cheng said that means 1,200 stores are open and 1,300 have closed.

I my own city I am seeing businesses that have operated for years if not decades vacating their old storefronts and restaurants. Completely emptied.

And as those businesses close so go the employment opportunities for the people who used to work there.

You do not have the authority to make people destitute, yet provide, at citizens’ cost, free health and all else to ilegals. FU, FU again. Let my people go!!!

It was not the pandemic but the PLANNED paranoia.

Global forces wanting to force a “hard reset” on civilization.

“PLANNED” as in “central planning”—the REAL CCP virus!

Zactly

I think there is a Yuge awakening of courage in many of us to show up and if we say we’d fight them, then let’s do it in a peaceable way while we can, so we don’t have to fight them...

I’ve been here forever.

Just assume everyone takes part in my free sarcastic remarks to illustrate stupidity or absurdity ...

Very sad about so many restaurants and the interesting little stores people had and now their dreams have been guillotined...

That headline needs work....should have read “54% of San Francisco storefronts have closed due to government lockdowns/restrictions related to COVID-19, chamber of commerce study says”.

No problem. President Biden (should he be elected) says he’ll close the other 46%.

Roflmao

People never learn. It was stupid from the start. Quarantining the healthy. Quite a new approach.

And quite a disastrous one

the Blasio basically said indoor dining won’t happen until 2021. Because it’s for the middle class and Rich. He is a true communist and nothing else. He even steals government money like one

Ecclesiastes says “there is a time for war and a time for peace”.

We did not seek this war, but it has been brought to us.

Yeah, and “fixing” the propaganda headlines is sorta taboo at FR anyway. Messes up the search function database.
