Lagniappe: an unserious blog
An age of wonders
Far too often I have to walk out of a supermarket because I don't feel like waiting a half hour in line because they haven't adequately staffed their registers and have decided to impose the costs on their customers instead. (The Giant across from Ron Paul HQ is especially appalling in this regard. I'm ready to just simply never shop there again.) We're only a couple of years away from all local markets having something like this that will reduce labor and grocery and waiting costs. Which will almost make up for the ludicrous increase in food costs caused by the taxpayer boondoggle of ethanol support. If only the Dems demonized Big Corn the way they do Big Pharma, but that would entail actually doing good for someone other than trial lawyers.
