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.
Taylor traded her soul for a few jobs.
Finally. The alderman has received the needed and appropriate cash “contributions”.
Neither Norfolk Southern, nor its corporate predecessors (Southern Railway and Norfolk and Western Railway) existed during slavery. Another moment of ignorance for the City Council.
But the easement giving those metal rails the right of way though Chicago existed pre-civil war, and maybe one of those companies that used those metal rails in those right of ways easements might have employed slave labor, somewhere on the continent (wasn’t the confederacy a different country entirely at one point?). This extremely tenuous connection is good enough, I suppose.
“Ironclad agreement of jobs and contracts for Englewood residents.”
It would interesting to see Norfolk Southern’s records on how they comply with that provision. How many residents apply for jobs? How many keep working at the job longer than 30 days?
Compliance will most likely come through awarding contracts (wink, wink) rather than actual jobs.
