-- 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.
Kind of funny, I think it was yesterday over at crapfax they’re still pushing the population loss as fake news.
CrapFax is where brain cells go to die.
Here’s an article from Mercola about Chicago crime. Mercola’s articles can only be up for 48 hoursthen he takes them down so try to save on hard drive or whatever is easy. Bookmarks also disappear.

I was able to download the PDF. All this stuff maybe true, but regarding the soft-on-crime prosecutors, the simplest answer is usually the most correct. Minority communities really like progressive prosecutors. They are wildly popular. They easily win election. We see their policies as failures because crime increases. The minority communities see these policies as successful because fewer members of their tribe go to jail.

The Fibune is comparing apples to oranges. More affluent productive taxpaying people are moving out and illegal aliens are moving in.
Add 10 years and we’ll look just like Detroit.
Absurd article. “It’s a midwest thing” related to “immigration and fertility”. Tell that to TN and WI and IN and MO all with growing populations. These people just lie and lie to fit the narrative they think they need to push. This is like peeing on my leg and telling me that it’s raining. My most recently extended relatives who left Chicago – lifelong residents – now live MO, and a closer relative moved last year to WI. We’re all fleeing the Fat Man Bad’s destruction.
