ReplyDeleteHow dare you!
ReplyDeleteGovernor Tom Wolf (D) is a fine, upstanding, and honest man. I know, because there is D behind his name. That is as golden in a legal court or the court of public opinion as a blue check mark is in the twit verse.
Any takers on the chamber of commerce being a private website by membership only for almost all information in the future?
www.chamberofcommerce.com/united-states/pennsylvania/philadelphia/
128,872 Businesses
Businesses burned
?? Monday Night
30 Tuesday Night
?? Tonight
Philly small businesses struck by looters can apply for grants
"The Merchants Fund is taking applications for the $1.4 million Restore & Reopen program"
30 businesses this night, 20 the next, 40 the night afterwards, after awhile we are talking large numbers of businesses closed for good or set back months or a year.
Figure 10 people work at a business. If you have 30 businesses looted on Monday and 30 0n Tuesday, you are talking about 600 people negatively affected. If you include the near family, you have about 2,400.
But this is nothing say Butthole Governor Wolf.
Point of mentioning The Merchants Fund or the Chamber of commerce is that we could get cumulative #s for a week of protests, rioting, and murder. We could get that,b ut will we or will it be buried in some report form a think tank 3 years from now.
What if we got it at the end of the week before election day?
"God Forbdi!" screams Buttlicker Wolf (D)!
So 30 business set back or permanently closed is nothing. At what number does it cross the threshold from nothing to something?
Next year when Democrats win election and can convene committees to pass out the money to loyal voting blocs and their cronies?
"Rioting is not a problem." - Tom Wolf (D)
ReplyDeleteRioters, looters and Democrats tell us that the business have insurance. Sot they will be made hill.
Just think of all the economic activity from rebuilding! We'll have economic growth surpassing China's!
We could scale this up. That means supersize to you who live along the Acela corridor.
We could scale this up and start a world war. Think of all the economic activity generated.
We could go nuclear. Think of how much we would need to rebuild! The economy would boom!
\
Addendum: If I get in a car wreck, no one is hurt, and the insurance pays for the car, I am made whole. So why am I still upset? Could it be that insurance pays out 100%, my costs still go up and I am still out of pocket in the future?
What about the businesses? Might their insurance rates go up? Don't they go up? Are they not then out of money in the future?
Did not Democrats and rioters think of that?
Headline: Rioters in Philadelphia make one last push in their reelect Donald Trump campaign.

ReplyDeleteIt is fair to ask every liberal you meet "When did you stop beating your spouse?"
Black Lives Matter is Rioting in Philly for Man Who Held a Gun to a Woman’s Head and Was Awaiting Trial For Threatening to Shoot Another
1968,Nixon wins because of race riots! Ed. tell your'e dumb ass brother that BLM just handed Trump Pennsylvania on a silver platter,lol!!!!
ReplyDeleteObama and his people revived the race riot by backing BLM. The Left funded the rise of the racist movement and deployed it in election years. Track the large riots and you'll find that they align with election years, 2014, 2016, and now.
ReplyDeleteThat's not a coincidence.
The riots are meant to up political engagement for its base and terrorize its victims. Give us what we want or we'll come for you.
