I agree but I have seen something that may be an anomaly. In my town we have 2 national chain grocery stores and 1 small mom and pop grocery.

The pandemic led to no toilet paper, meat and a new normal at the national chains. The mom and pop had tons of meat, supply of toilet paper and did not demand a new normal. They had a line out the door for weeks. They are now building a new store 3x larger and the 2 grocery chains have dropped pricing to compete and no longer enforce the new normal.

People have abandoned them.

It's all part of the globalist plan. Basically you ensure only multinational mega corporations can exist because you enforce free trade, meaning you are able to outsource all of your labor. Then you raise taxes a ton so any small or medium business goes broke. What you're left with is a massive set of minimum wage workers, a huge wealth gap, then your upper class.

Sure the upper class pays or 70% of their income in taxes, but they make millions, so they don't care that much.

Everyone else gets $20/hour if you can manage to find a barrista job, or you're unemployed.

This post apocalyptic hellscape is what AOC and their kin think is better, because when everyone is equally poor then there is no more income inequality.

"Rode's didn't have 23% black representation in employees and management, so they deserved to be burned down." - Libs

Any business destroyed by BLM riots should sue the hell out of any corporation that donated to BLM.

This makes me ill.

And the leftists will be like "oh you only care about THINGS not PEOPLE"

Businesses are livelihoods. Livelihoods are LIVES of PEOPLE. Hence the word "livelihood."

PEOPLE labored for over one hundred years to make Rode's Camera Shop a thriving business. That hired PEOPLE. All ruined in a single night by spoiled violent children.

This. Wealth is accumulated labor. So when you destroy things you are making all those years they toiled meaningless.

I think the framers made a big mistake in the declaration of independence - they changed life, liberty and property to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Property rights are the fundamental bedrock of modern civilization. The fact that you can work and accumulate property is what makes the whole world work. If there are no property rights you end up with a place worse then Somalia.

Those people who say you only care about things - simply don't think about the implications of their beliefs. They don't really think at all.

Well said.

They did specify in the Constitution that only (free) (male) property owners could vote. It wasn't their fault that it got changed. :(

Plus anyone who lost their job at Rode's Camera Shop can go work at the Amazon Fulfillment Center right there in Kenosha. 🤡🌎

Amazon has done well with Covid and Riots. They also have the State Department making sure they hire non Americans regardless of President Trumps Executive Order.
