Apparently, In Texas, Everyone is an Essential Employee

Even though Dallas County, Tarrant County, Collin County, Denton County, Hunt County, Kaufman County, Rockwall County, Ellis County, and Navarro County have ALL issued a stay home or shelter in place order, the metroplex is alive and bustling.

2. Not sure what point the author thinks they're making.

Pawn shops are federally regulated and recognized as financial institutions. It's not some loophole they discovered.

Essential employees of other public and private entities might need to get their cars serviced, so the complaint about dealers being open is a little misguided.

As for alcohol, the health care system is going to be taxed enough without having a bunch of people going through alcohol withdrawal because they can't get booze because everything is shut down.

That pretty much covers the entire article.

Speaking of non-essential, I think the author could have taken the day off and skipped this one.
