[AGL] hundreds on the street - no masks

[Michael Eisenstadt]

We just drove to Whole Foods along 6th street. Lo and behold, all the 
bars were open and the streets were full of hundered of young drinkers 
none of them wearing masks. We could see many outdoor tables full of 
revelers. Bars are allowed to retitle themselves as restaurants - that 
means having to buy a $5 bag of chips. That arrangement is ridiculous. 
Abbott cares more about bars open for business than he does for public 
safety.

Mask wearing is not obligatory in Texas - thanks Gov. Abbott - and the 
rate of infections is increasing mightily, so we will never be free of 
the pandemic at this rate, not in my abreviated lifetime.
