- Took me a second to figure out Texas! :) -

Well, at least you did figure it out. ;-) About 15 seconds after posting the thread I asked the mods to fix the title, but I guess it hasn't made the to-do list yet.

That’s what they’re doing in public.

Wonder how much taxpayer money will be going for bribes that they’re not making public.

“ Every person’s right to vote”
Not every citizen’s right to vote.

They need to fix their endemic revenue and pension shortfall.

Wouldn’t spend 50 cents in Chicago, let alone move a business, or my family there.

Only the fools who were lucky enough to get together with their money in the first place. Illinois has to be one of the most business unfriendly states in the US.

Like serving Picante Sauce made in NYC?

Haven’t seen those Pace Commercials in a while.

As if the heat of burning cars and buildings would remind Texans of hot summers back home.

Nobody wants to lower their standards of living nor rush to death.

One of the more poignant stories of the fallout from last summer’s rioting in Chicago was from somebody that had just moved up from Texas to take a job at one of the north side hospitals. He moved his family into a nice house in an (ostensibly) safe north side neighborhood...two weeks later, the Floyd riots began, and there were protestors/rioters on the street in front of their house.

They immediately put the house back on the market and moved out of the city.

Yeah—reminds me of the nearest city in this area.

Occasionally someone from out of the area will ask what is the “good part of the city”.

My response “there is no good part of the city”.
