The Scratching Post is talking about Whole Foods closing their flagship store in San Francisco. He has a poop map of San Francisco and Whole Foods is right in the center of it. It bestirred me enough to post a comment:
"How come they didn't learn their lessons?" Good question. I don't know, but I suspect there is a core group of people who are busy plundering the public coffers. They discourage anyone who wants to change things (stop their thieving ways) by being as obnoxious as possible. Anyone with a brain can find much more rewarding things to do with their time than dealing with them. Why doesn't the public vote them out? Because the people in charge run a massive propaganda campaign that portrays them as 'good folks' who only want the best for everybody. They are lying, of course. People operate on emotions, not reason and facts, so they are going to vote for the person who tells them the most comforting lies.
P. S. Portland ain't no slouch when the making the charge to Armageddon. Portland Tribune tells us that Coava Coffee is closing their downtown shop due to what you might call a 'hostile work environment'. You known, gangsters, muggers, and bums.
