Commentary: We must rein in violent crime to help those who need economic opportunity – Chicago Sun-Times

"In 2021, 12 major cities saw their deadliest year on record. Chicago had its deadliest year in a quarter century....No amount of economic incentives the government can provide will entice businesses to open in dangerous areas with low-recruitment potential. As a result, increasing crime will reduce the economic opportunities for lower-income residents."

Further proof the Sun Times is run by jagloads. Crime has nothing to do with the Pandemic, Trump or Putin. Crime is caused by criminals and politicians! Yea I know it’s redundant!
