    Gotta love touching something god knows how many other people touched before you right before you get some food.

          Ok, but ask yourself why there needs to be a mandate, and think of all the things that aren’t mandated.

            Because we can’t get enough people to vote any other way.

          This just in: after laws and rules enacted, prison intake rates drop to 0 and nobody does anything they aren’t allowed to. Why didn’t we think of this earlier? Back to you, Tim.

            Okay, maybe you think health departments don’t give a shit, but they have the power to and do close restaurants for a reason.

              I’ve worked in a kitchen before; I assure you, just because rules exist and random checkups occur, doesn’t mean shit.

      It’s not like your phone or wallet are exactly clean either. Or the restaurant door, for that matter. Or the human cashier you’d be passing money to.

      If something like this is a concern, just wash your hands or use some sanitizer before you eat. I struggle to imagine that kiosks caused a demonstrable increase in disease, but hey, maybe there’s some data out there.

      You’d hate to know how many people have touched the change you get from a store.

        Is this something that I’m too 21st century to understand? Who pays in cash and coin anymore?

        The metals used for coinage are fairly antimicrobial. Fun fact.

        Dollar bills, less so.
