-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
Illinois paid the price for embracing Fauci’s “science.” Here’s the retrospective.
The people who attend these venues are all pro blm types. This is still a capitalist country. Let them blame blm and an idiot government in Illinois and Chicago closing down Chicago and Illinois in order to get senile Biden and racist Harris elected. I don’t feel sorry for them at all.
Uh, not quite. Good amount of patrons for Metro, DoubleDoor, Aragon, etc. are Gen X and older and attending shows purely for the talent, 20-30 years before blm was a glimmer in Soros’ evil eye.
Free markets for free men. In capitalism we don’t support a failed business model. Too many waitresses, bartenders, musicians, actors, comedians, artists and community activists and other silly jobs that are not now and were never intended to be full time endeavors or careers. The above need to be in school or trade schools trying to get real jobs. The government can no longer subsidize their childish games and poor choices at the expense of taxpayers.
I love(d) Metro – saw some great talent there going back 20+ years. Also large gatherings of hundreds of people half of whom recognized each other.
Closure of these unique, niche music venues will be a major part of Death of a Great Midwestern Metro-polis.
I wonder who all these independent club owners and their customers voteD for in the last governor’s race? Elections have consequences.
Not one venue was closed by COVID. They were closed by the cruel edicts of a fat, stupid, lazy, slob Dictator
And Demon Mini-Me Leadfoot, aka Groot/Gremlin/Beetlejuice.
Remember who screwed you! The Chi-coms and the Chi-town coms!
