Oh no! Target closing stores due to violence & theft?

BIDENOMICS!

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/26/targ...nd-theft-.html

Quote:
Target said it will close nine stores across the country after struggling with crime and safety threats at those locations.

Target, which has nearly 2,000 stores in the U.S., has been outspoken about organized retail crime at its stores and said theft has driven higher levels of shrink.

Target is closing locations in New York City, Seattle, San Francisco and Portland.
I'm absolutely SHOCKED those are the cities listed...

It's a sad state of affairs when business are forced to close due to the lack of accountability from the politicians that govern those areas. Then, those same politicians will turn around and blame the businesses.

So for all you left wing lovers....... You claim on one hand that the left is for the impoverished and downtrodden. Yet it's the left's policy which force business out of these areas. Guess what happens to these areas once business leaves??? More poverty and downtrodden residents!!

The act of continuing the same thing, over and over, expecting a different result......hmmmm. Insanity???

They want everyone impoverished.

That's the GOAL

This was what Obama was talking about when he wrote about fundamentally transforming America. When he went around apologizing for America. When he refused to embrace American exceptionalism.

He wants to bring us to the level of all the other shithole countries.

And he and his surrogates are doing a damn good job of it.

This is also the goal of the WEF and Klaus Schwab. "You'll OWN NOTHING and like it!"

And the idiots who live in this country are buying it all...

You realize this country is dead, right?

Think back 10,15,20 years...think of how people thought and acted back then.

Then think about today. About how today is all about "anything goes..."

Do whatever you want as long as YOU feel good. Get high. Get drunk. Don't work. Why work, the government will take care of you...

Don't worry about committing crimes...the gov't has your back...no bail...no serious consequences for "petty crimes" even though those "petty crimes" destroy everyone else's quality of life.

This is all planned...this is all the goal...working as intended....

And if you complain, YOU'RE A RACIST!

Paul you always have the interest in viewpoints that can alter a view you may not have covered. With all stores it is a challenge to find, and retain good people. Many many years before Covid-19 I traveled to California with work, anyway I spent many different weeks in southern Cali. with the rental car and visited Target years before the chain came to New England. I thought the stores had better management in California and staffing compared to when the chain opened here near me. Then years later Covid-19 changes an already hurting Brick and mortar across the country. So the question is tough to configure and it goes to the heart of retail to ask where is its future.

I owned one of his cars. In fact I owned two of them. The first one had a dispute with an Oldsmobile.

So apparently a cop must be shot first before they can discharge their weapon.

Reaparations!!! I'd love to know what happens with all the looted goods, I'd wager most of these goons are too stupid to figure out how to convert Lululemon yoga pants into cash, so it winds up in a pile in some corner of their rat infested apartments . . . one thing is for certain, most of their women can't fit into them
