2. "Get their glutton on"...

exactly. This isn't about food, or medical services, or police/fire protection, this is about CheapShitFromChina. $7.99 coffee makers that probably won't last a year.

I forget the details, but a while back there was a story of a kid walking 10 miles in icy conditions to get to an interview for a minimum wage job. He was spotted, and ultimately hired, by a local restaurateur. Hope something similarly good happens to Mr. Rohr -- getting hired by a restaurant that treats its employees well, branching out on his own, something.
