Is there anything libtards think more taxes won’t fix?

Time businesses get out of Chicago and other such cities. Maybe evacuate from states that have such cities.

Chicago will become Detroit in short order. Just another dying, large American city.

Detroit is actually starting to turn things around. I would much rather be in Detroit than Chicago right now.

Sounds like the old “Hate Rich Whitie” mantra that will always get black votes! Only problem is when they start to believe the lie.

I told people that Chicago would not change. That things would only get worse.

They told me I was wrong.

I wish I had been.

Chicago has turned into a cesspool.

If it's possible to get worse than Lightfoot, this guy could be it.

Look at Jackson MS to see what happens to a city when it elects a radical black marxist as mayor. They can't even keep the water running there. They constantly beg for federal money then their relatives and cronies haul it out the back door as soon as it comes in the front.

Then they blame the nearest Republican for all their problems.

“ For those with thinking caps and reading skills.”

So that rules out the entire Chicago City Council, 70% of the Illinois State Legislature, and 85% of the Executive.

“Liberal” mayor my fanny. Marxist mayor is on point and should be used. Let’s start calling a spade a spade.

Former Mayor Groot did us all a favor by exposing Obuma’s “army” as a paper tiger after Mexicans set up armed barricades and chased the BLM thugs back to their inner city ghettos in June, 2020.

I expect the new mayor will do something equally stupid to weaken the noodle-arm deep state.

I’ve been to Nepal, India, and Bangladesh. There is poverty there hard to imagine. But they would give you the last grain of rice even as a white western outsider and there was never any threat of violence or the least bit of concern for my safety. I wouldn’t think of going to any African s hole.
