Shopping on Sunday generates tax
1- teenagers will do most of the work generating income tax
2- teenagers do most of the spending generating tax
3- shopping on Sunday = less people throwing money away at the US owned
Casino.
4- Less cross border shopping in areas that border NB or Maine via Ferry
5- Another day for foreign tourists to leave cash behind.
6- Less on-line ordering
7- More tax on the gas for the cars coming and going to the mall
8- More meals out
 and so on and so on and so on .it all adds up
My wife works at the hospital some weekends so she should also have the
right to shop on any day off. My child is at SMU Sunday shopping generates
income helping to pay larger tuition fees.
Most important people need the choice, do so or not
Its a moral issue not one a someone else should make for me/us/you/them.
(government or religion)
FREEDOM OF PERSONAL CHOICE
