"We don't like the fact your city taxes make it unaffordable to attend eateries or entertainment venues. And we sure as heck, don't care for your vax mandate! In fact, we are voting with our feet. We are staying away."
Here we are, in the once great state of Minnesota, freezing our rear-ends off. The Vikings did not make the playoffs (again), Christmas is over, the pandemic continues to be a most unwelcomed guest, and guess what just happened? The socialist elite, who run both Minneapolis and St. Paul, decided that it would be a wonderful idea to mandate being vaxxed if you wanted to go out for dinner and/or drinks. Wait - what? There is no science in that decision! Everybody knows the Omicron variant does not give a dang about how many vaccinations or boosters you have had! So what gives, for crying out loud? Two words - power and authority.
How is this going to work out? There will be two losers and no winners. The first group of losers will be the owners/operators of bars and eateries. After going through hell for the past two years (because of the pandemic), the city leaders are going to turn up the temperature some more. Food is more expensive (if you can get it), and hardly anyone wants to work in the food business anymore. Everyone is critically short on help. What does the city do to give these poor folks a hand up? It throws them an anchor instead of a life preserver.
The other losers are going to be the customers. Or should I say, the former customers. Let me get this straight - if you want to drive into Minneapolis for a nice dinner, what do you have to look forward to? First off, good luck not getting carjacked. According to the MPD, there were 640 attempted or successful carjackings in 2021. Then if you don't get carjacked, you can still get mugged. Last year, there were over 2,000 robberies in Minneapolis. Many in broad daylight. Once you make it to the restaurant, you will be carded to ensure you are vaxxed. If you pass that hurdle, you may then sit down to a very expensive meal - that is, if the restaurant is able to get food.
Here is a news flash for the yahoos who are running (ruining) the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. We don't like your lax response to crime. We don't like the fact you have diminished your police force. We don't like the fact your city taxes make it unaffordable to attend eateries or entertainment venues. And we sure as heck, don't care for your vax mandate! In fact, we are voting with our feet. We are staying away. So socialists in charge - MANDATE THIS!
One of the things that Democrats and socialist have never understood is common knowledge on supply and demand. In a free country, if the income tax goes up too high, people of wealth don't have to work. They don't have to supply jobs. If the cost of goods goes up too high, people don't have to buy them. If vax mandates are instituted for eateries or bars, people don't have to go there. For the life of me, I don't know why socialist think this is so hard to understand. Maybe in Venezuela and Cuba, it is not.
Democrats and socialists may not get this as yet, but they soon will. Come November, the red wave will wash over everything the statists have tried to ruin. The good news? Help is on the way. Just hold on for a few more months until November.
