I just love how Republicans talk about small government and letting local people have control, but they literally never follow that principle.
There is a new trend in red states of stripping local control from more liberal cities. I believe Alabama passed some bill a couple of years ago which made it so that local cities could not pass ordinances protecting LGBT people. This bill here in FL is the same poo poo except for the environment

Avocado Toast in restaurants has a huge markup, and a specific article from a while back blamed all our ills on it

Wasn’t it a huge thing that goons discussed for years that, if Mueller and the AG disagreed in any way about the final report, it would result in immediate Congressional Intel briefings or release of the report or something? Because I haven’t seen anyone mention it since, after they obviously disagreed and Mueller went full coward.

Wasn't the original thing from some article where some conservative was at a restaurant, and they had avocado toast on the menu and it was like $22 or some such then he "overheard" (made up) some millennial who ordered it talking about how he couldn't afford to buy a house or something. That's what I recall it originating with.

probably because a lot of old white people only know of avocado as something that costs a $1.50 extra to get on your sandwich at subway or in your burrito. so of course millenials must be paying $15.00 for it at the coffee house and not $.075 for an avocado at the store

I hadn't previously heard people talking about the issues that Harris was raising. I wonder if those are particularly important questions that simply hadn't come up in the public consciousness or just some particularly arcade internal DoJ policies.

The latter, primarily, I think. Though there's probably a bit of pressure from the disposable utensil manufacturers as well.

The national restaurant association (lobbying group) is also massively resistant to *any* restaurant regulation/change in general, lest it someday might lead to minimum wage increases.
