a deteriorating Telegraph Avenue
...undoubtedly the result of intellectually honest businessmen packing up and leaving a socialist hellhole...
college students, his bread-and-butter market, are reading fewer scholarly books
...because they are majoring in "[Protected Group name here] Studies" which have so much more "emotional truth" than oppressive, Euro-centric, patriarchical fields of study like "Mathematics", "American Literature", and "Western Philisophy"...
an increase in city parking ticket fees that scared off customers around the Civic Center
...because government is looked to as the source of all things, thus it increases its funding requirements as well...
and a nettlesome homeless problem there
...because they have the "right" to live wherever they want in a place where they know suckers with no concept of individual responsibility will throw them the cash they "deserve"...
etc...
nicely put.
