The quality of life of the productive, has been decimated.
Store owners are asking people to please wipe the shit off their feet before entering, if they can get passed the garbage in front of the owner's door to begin with. The smell must be appalling.
They are devolving to the filthy early 1800's, and keep voting for it to compound. Incredible.
Then there are the real freebies. Shop lifting is de facto, no longer a criminal offense under $950.00.
Imagine yourself a business owner. How many $950.00 hits can you take
per day before your inventory and your livelihood are wiped out?
And yet they vote for the situation to deteriorate even more.
And worse yet is, the productive are leaving the shit holes they helped to create and insist on voting for the same downward spiral in the once normal cities they escaped to!
