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.
Sounds good for Illinois businessmen!
The state is really pushing the social justice angle here. First they offered priority access for minorities to licenses. That didn’t work. Next, Light foot suggested the city suggested a city owned co-op to grow the weed. Then today I hear that the state is going to offer low interest loans. What’s next, free product to minorities? Isn’t that what the CIA did in the 1980’s when it smuggled crack into the inner cities? Peddled free goods until they got hooked?
