I'm wondering if the lawyers and insurance companies are forcing retail places to require masks of their customers so their employees can't sue the employer if they get sick. Even in the "open" counties of Iowa, many retail businesses just started requiring customers to wear masks to enter the store or buy one for a $1 to gain entry.
Also seen a few pictures on Facebook of some stores with armed security at the entrances, not sure if this is true or a pile of steaming bovine excrement. I need to venture out for some copper tubing for a project, see if Menards has armed security like the folks on Facebook are claiming they do.
