If that’s the case… Its well documented that grocery stores under serve poor areas. But I agree with the GOPers, if they are losing money, it’s not good business. I also agree that if it’s not a losing money thing but thinner profit lines that closes those stores, then there may be a racial aspect. And for the record, of the four women in “the squad”, AOC is the only one I ACTUALLY LIKE. The others have proven to be too much for my tastes.

Boardrooms be damned, there is a huge difference between not making record profits and actually losing money. I would need those facts to consider pointing blame or defending their positions.

If grocery stores were making money in urban areas they would have stores in urban areas. But I don't think crime is the only factor. I don't think anyone in their right mind would believe that any grocery store making a decent profit margin would simply abandon stores in those areas because they are poor areas. When they leave those areas it's because they aren't making money there. You can label that under served if you like. I do know that's a popular term bantered about. But business is not created to serve. That's what charities are created for. Businesses are created to make money.

I'm just trying to clarify for my own purposes of understanding: when you talked about underserving, are you referring to the studies that show the quality of food (meat, produce, etc.) and the variety of food offered at urban grocery stores is far inferior to suburban grocery stores?

Also, who is the fourth squad member? AOC, Omar, Tlaib and ???

Corey Bush (sp?) Yes those studies.

And PIT, I get that if they are losing money. My point is that in a boardroom, it doesn’t have to be money lost, it could be expected profit margins not realized, while still making a profit. If that is why they closed those stores, then there is a problem. Don’t think our old buddy Jim Crow never existed in boardrooms. So, all I’m saying is that I would need to know the actual numbers and reason for the closings to blame the businesses for closing. If they were actually losing money, of course you close them. If they were just not AS PROFITABLE as prime locations, that’s a different issue.

And DL05, the squad started in the progressive caucus under Sanders, but GOPer hate defined who was in or on… Katey Porter was often mentioned with them as were a few males from that group of first year reps. But only the 4 women of color were villified.

I would think that anyone conducting business would look at the average profit margin based on a combination of all of their stores combined as a gauge for the profit each individual store should achieve. I'm not talking about "what never existed". Money is all green no matter who is spending it.

Let me draw it in crayon because I”M not getting my point across…

Corp A has 100 stores. Each store has a predicted profit growth forecast for the year. Stores that significantly under perform would be closed to free up resources to open in more profitable locations. Significantly under performing could mean loss, could mean leaner profits but still profits, could also mean breaking even. Trust me, businesses walk away from small gains all the time. It’s actually good business to always maximize profits, so small gains becomes a best placed or allocated resources proposition.

Those are everyday decisions that affect the neighborhoods those businesses exist in. Businesses will do anything from reformulate/repackage products to be cheaper, change suppliers for higher profits, etc. In a boardroom it’s bottom line business decisions always based on maximizing profits as a fiduciary duty. So these stores could be closing just because they don’t turn out profits like a prime location. Good business, horrible for the community. And I think, unlike you, that big businesses have a duty to the communities they serve too… but asking them to accept less to provide access isn’t a thing in our capitalist system.

So I see both sides and would need more info to condemn either.

Well, this definitely is not "expected profit margins not realized, while still making a profit."

Eric Adams: Why won't the migrants stop coming to NYC??


Also Eric Adams:





"If the program is a success, the city will expand it to ALL migrant families staying in hotels, which is roughly 15,000 currently, officials said Friday."

Define: "success"

I'm with you. I think they should just starve. Oh, and they're being bused to NYC. That's why they keep coming.

You want them to walk?

And yes, they're all starving...

NYC migrant contractor tossing out thousands of uneaten taxpayer-funded meals a day: report

A controversial contractor being paid millions by the Big Apple to handle migrant services is tossing away tens of thousands of uneaten meals prepared for migrants — including 5,000 on a single day, company records show.

DocGo, which was awarded a hefty $432 million no-bid contract by Mayor Adams’ administration to help relocate some migrants upstate, receives up to $33 per day to provide three meals for each of the 4,000 asylum seekers in its care, the New York Times reported.

Yet more than 14,700 immigrants have been bused to New York. Sounds like some fuzzy math.

Because that's where they want to go. What are you trying to say?

Yet you seem to want Texas and Arizona to just absorb ALL the illegals.

Once again it went right over your head. I never said that. FATE's source said there were asylum 4000 seekers "in their care". Which what "in their care" actually means isn't clear because they have bused over 14,700 immigrants to NYC. It's about the math. I made that quite clear when I posted there seemed to be something fuzzy about the math. Dear Lord man. Now you're just making BS up as you go.

I'm saying there's a big difference between 4000 and over 14,000. I didn't think it was that complicated.

I do know the immigrants sent to Martha's Vineyard and who were flown to California were lied to about what would be awaiting them there. How they were told about jobs and housing that would be ready and waiting for them when they got there. I wonder what they told those immigrants they bused to NYC that made them "they want to go there"?

That's funny because they have reporters on the Mexican side of the border and about 7 out of 10 say they're headed to NYC. 95 out of 100 already know where they're going. Probably a #deepfake though.

Who's lying to them?

Then I wonder why all of a sudden that has turned into them all wanting to go to NYC? Do you have a source for that?

Haven't immigrants wanted to go to NYC for centuries? Source for the interviews? Nope. Looked quickly, don't see anything on YT. You have my word though, didn't make anything up. Fox has people on the other side interviewing all the time, most of it doesn't make it to YT. As soon as I find it or see more, I'll post it. Pressed for time today. Have a great day.

Well since Ellis Island is actually in New York their destination was New York. So yeah. Having been around Chicago and Atlanta quite a bit I think this "They all want to go to New York" thing is pretty recent.

From my experience what most of them want is work. And most of them will find it very hard to find work in New York City unless it's restaurant work. The construction work and unwanted factory jobs that pay less than Americans want to work for are much easier found elsewhere.

You have a great day too.

Run roh.....

Are you saying this is bad or just trolling?

Colorado democrats proposing a pet tax. An annual tax of $8-$25 per pet. $100 for failure to comply per pet. On the surface, when you think about registering a pet, it's typically cats and dogs since they can run away. I can understand the bill in that context. This bill applies to every animal other than livestock. Including fish. Gotta pay a tax for having an aquarium...you know, incase your fish runs away... How do they plan to enforce this? Weekly pet inspections by the government?

They just ask Alexa how many fish you have.

I eat my fish. Livestock doesn’t count. Huge loophole there. I guess there are some that can claim that for dogs and cats but not me. And besides what is that tax going to do? Pick up S and find lost pets…lol I don’t think so.

I was just waiting for your collective heads to explode.

Yes, that's what they're going to do. And while they're there they will take all of your guns like the gun nuts have been repeating every election cycle since the 1980's.

Aw, I posted something people hate about the Democrats in the proper thread about Cookoo Democrats. You know, that entire socialist/communist theme you all seem so proud of. And now somehow that's my fault too. According to you it seems everything is my fault. Maybe I'm actually the reason we have a gay Secretary of Transportation and a black woman as Vice President. The horror of it all!

Machete-wielding college professor fired again over social media post on ‘Zionists’

Left needs to get on the stick again and find this whack-job another job -- she's a minoooority and she needs to spread the word about fascism!

White supremacists say what?

Oh that's right, they gather in large groups and yell "Jews will not replace us!" Then they find a volunteer to run over people with a Dodge Charger.

Make sure your little commrades sign up for this.

Looked at the site you posted above... did you notice under the tab "who we are" that there is only one person listed... Doesn't appear to be a we to this. Just some young girl trying to make a statement or some bucks or both.


YOu wanna talk about commrades, you might want to discuss things with some house and senate republicans who seem to want to support anything Putin does.

Biden meets with dead people.

Biden lies more than Pit and that's hard to do.

There were a few videos, they keep disappearing from YouTube.


Today was worse. It was frighteningly McConnell-esque. This will likely be a dead link soon...

j/c

That's just joe being joe.

His first wife was killed by a truck driver that "drank his lunch", until it was determined the truck driver had zero alcohol in his system, and his first wife pulled out in front of the truck.

His son, Bo, died in Afghanistan from burn pits..........except, Bo died of brain cancer years later, here in the U.S.

Oh, corn pop anyone?

So many more, yet the libbies will go to their death thinking he's a good choice. He always says "if they would do this, I could fix all the problems." Couldn't even control his own dog. Has made millions being a 'public servant' that has no idea what the public is going through. He's getting his, though.

But, it's nice he's been talking to dead people. And mentioning dead people at speeches with "where's ............oh, my bad" Or, to a crippled person, "stand up".

So, so many examples.

The guy slurs his speech so much it's hard to tell what he's saying. But, at least he "jogs" to where ever he's supposed to in some vain effort to show he's fit, I guess.

How deplorably GOPer of you. Picking on dead family members and a speech impediment is certainly raising the bar for pathetic. Pffft POOPers
