I am going to go to Kroger, speak with the manager, and scream loud enough while complaining for the entire store to hear, and never return the first time this happens.
I'm lucky enough to have options. A lot of small towns aren't. This idea needs to die fast, and it won't unless we are loud and borderline violent in pushing back against it. Tank their sales and reputations as quickly as possible.
Edit: because people think I hate th manager, changed wording. And yea, it sucks that I can't scream directly at the CEO, but if you've silent, this gets implemented with no friction at all, and they declare it a success.
Kroger shutdown in all the small towns around here years ago. Most of them left are in the upper class part of towns. I haven't been to one in a decade or more. I have no doubt they wont be the last to stick another tax on people.
My bet is that whatever remains is either a subsidiary of Kroger or Albertsons. I wouldn't put it past them to start doing this too.
