People just refuse to accept responsibility for their own actions. And for the politicians representing those people, it’s far easier to blame whitey and racism than their own incompetency.
Free for thee but paid for by me.
“a city-owned grocery could measure profit in a different way.”
New definition of profit:
Everybody steals all your stuff!
If they want to give away free stuff it would make more sense to just open up a food bank—at least then you are treating all residents the same.
Otherwise you are just rewarding the criminals and punishing the good citizens.
Deep State doesn’t like competition.
Just like the ussr. One brand, limited supply, all white packaging with just a bar code.
And that is why I give none my respect...
Thats basically it. Push private grocery stores put by undercutting them and then take over food.
Digital dollar and state owned food.
Just make private businesses illegal so that the government can own the means of production. And distribution. And transportation. Retail. Wholesale. Just nationalize it all. You know you want to.
No, they live longer because they don’t die from gun violence. 20 yr olds getting killed really skews the averages
It’s overt racism to close stores as a way to prevent looting.
Now the looters have no place to get free stuff!.
/s
They will measure the profit of those who stole all the food. It’ll be huge.
“Just nationalize it all. You know you want to.”
Exactly.
It would be amusing to see the city owned stores robbed blind. Tax payers would be on the hook for it, but I’d still like to see the business clueless city officials try to deal with what legitimate business owners have to suffer with.
Gimme a break. They’re complaining about 10 miles? If I want a head of lettuce, I have to drive 12 miles east or14 miles west to get to a grocery store with fresh produce. Sometimes the Dollar General 5 miles away has one. But never fresh meats.
Thank God I garden. I garden therefore I can.
Don't you just love this re-framing of the issue, folks?
Using that same logic, one could legitimize any expropriation of the "haves" by / for the benefit of the "have-nots."
And, of course, govt. officials will be standing there, acting as the "middlemen," and seeing to it that everything is distributed "fairly."
Regards,
Communism where the state owns everything.
I wonder if they will enforce laws against stealing if they owned the store.
Take away the EBT cards and go back to the old “Government Cheese” system.
Hand out government cheese, canned mystery meat, beans, rice, flour,, sugar, etc. once a month.
The Mad Max world ain’t going away
