Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Morning Rant: Minimalist EditionThe advice comes as New York City Mayor Eric Adams admitted that a shoplifting epidemic is forcing chain stores to close down and costing retail workers their jobs. “People who say that we’re criminalizing the poor—they’re wrong,” Adam said at a Feb. 12 budget hearing in Albany as he made the case for billions in additional state funding for his city. “Poor and low-income New Yorkers are being unemployed because we’re losing those businesses in our city.” “We’re losing chain stores that are closing down. People who are being employed in those stores are losing their jobs,” the mayor told the state Legislature. “They’re adding to our unemployment.” Of course Adams will use this as an excuse to mask (hah!) his many failures as mayor. The crime rate in NYC is exploding because Adams and his progressive followers have shifted the policing dynamic in the city so far toward the criminals that the cops just don't bother. Why should some cop chase down a shoplifter if the perp will be released within hours and in all probability have his charges pleaded down to nothing or simply dropped? And of course there is a significant chance of the arrest going south rapidly and the cop being charged with assault, manslaughter, or simply being mean to a criminal, which is rapidly becoming a real crime in America. Businesses are closing because of crime, high taxes, lax policing, terrible city services...masking is a symptom, not a cause. Adams calls for businesses to have customers unmask, as search for gunman in hazmat suit continues Mayor Eric Adams has echoed the NYPD’s call for New York City businesses to request customers remove their masks when entering, as the search continues for a hazmat suit-clad gunman wanted in four robberies, one of which turned deadly. “Let’s be clear, some of these characters going into stores that are wearing their mask, they’re not doing it because they’re afraid of the pandemic,” Adams told PIX11 Morning News on Monday. “They’re doing it because they’re afraid of the police. We need to stop allowing them to exploit the safety of the pandemic by wearing masks.”And what the hell kind of English does Adams speak? He's a jabbering fool in nicely tailored suits. Unlike his predecessor, who was a jabbering fool in poorly tailored suits. How about some simple declaratory sentences? "New Yorkers are losing their jobs because..." is much better than some hackneyed political blather..."Poor and low-income New Yorkers are being unemployed because we’re losing those businesses in our city.” Huh? Everybody knows that. The question is, what are you going to do about it? And we all know the answer...nothing! More taxes, begging for bailouts, but continuing the policies that are causing the downturn in the first place. Sadly, New Yorkers voted for this idiot, and they are getting what they deserve.

Housing low skill poor people in the big blue shitholes is a terrible idea.
There are few jobs and cities literally drive people crazy. One way to handle this in the short term - as welfare should be eliminated in the long term - is people get welfare by working and living where there is low skill work to be done - chopping trees, harvesting food, etc. Get them out of the cities. BUT, and this is the important part, GIVE THEM WORK. And if you don't want that type of work great - you can take any job you can get...but no one is going to give you a handout to not work.

I had a professor of German history once where I experienced this. I called bullshit on one of her statements (that the US armed forces are the mechanism to make poor black people fight the rich white people's wars) because the facts actually do not support her argument. She told me to write an essay for extra credit if I was so sure I could support my position. I did. She rationalized away all the demographic data and concluded commented that "people like us" need to be wary of hate facts used by wreckers to argue against what we know to be right.

New Coke sorta made sense. IIRC Pepsi had taken over the number one spot in the Cola Wars for a couple of years, and - Pepsi was quite a bit sweeter than Coke. Also no Coke "burn". So, they retooled Coke to essentially be Pepsi. Only, I think, a bit sweeter now than Pepsi. The smart thing would've been to make New Coke along side of "ClassicCoke" instead of trying to lose all their customers who liked Coke just the way it was. In the end, they almost went back to the original recipe but "Coke burn" was lost to the ages and never seen again! Posted by: naturalfake at March 07, 2023 11:53 AM (L1tQx) 272

In a similar vein, the Soviet mining town Pyramiden was purposefully built as a show place to persuade the Norweigians and others that the Soviet method was better. Never was economically justified by the production of coal that it produced and shut down in 1998. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramiden
Posted by: whig at March 07, 2023 11:40 AM (TE6uL) Very curious. Seems like a Russian entity still owns the town, despite it being on Norwegian territory. But I would still call that one a ghost town. The Soviets may have wanted to make a showplace of it, but the town did serve a major mine. Curiously, there is a coal mining town in British Columbia called Tumbler Ridge, with a sort of similar history. A huge mine for metallurgical coal was developed there, and they needed to house the mine workers, as the commute from the closest existing towns would have been too long. So they built an architecturally-planned community, everything built in harmoniously colored ticky tacky style. Real "Stepford Wives" vibe to the place. The mine was closed, Tumber Ridge almost became a ghost town; they tried to make it into an artists' colony, and then the mine reopened.

Very curious. Seems like a Russian entity still owns the town, despite it being on Norwegian territory. But I would still call that one a ghost town. The Soviets may have wanted to make a showplace of it, but the town did serve a major mine.
-------- AOP, I called it a Potemkin village because it was radically different than Soviet mining establishments in Siberia and because the Soviets explicitly set out to publicize it in the Nordic Countries to show how good life under the Soviet system could be. The mine's production itself did not warrant the expenditures that the Soviets made for its luxurious (for Soviets) amenities. Posted by: whig at March 07, 2023 12:00 PM (TE6uL) 303

To be perfectly honest, I do not care what happens in NYC. I do not care what happens in LA. I have been sitting out here in Nebraska for damn near sixty years, and I simply don't give a damn what happens in the blue hells. I've learned to lock my doors -- mostly because the XO is paranoid as all get out. I have actually walked away from my Vitara, doors locked, engine running, and keys in ignition, and come back a couple hours later to find the vehicle right where I left it. (Thank heavens for skinny grandkids.) I've wandered off, leaving every car we've ever owned unlocked and come back to find nothing stolen. Off and on, we had a few minor problems at the house, but that happened as our neighborhood mutated from a well managed blue collar area into a third world country. Nebraska, and especially Omaha, might be a national joke, but it's a safe national joke. (And, yes, the city fathers did fall to their knees and praise God when Peyton Manning suddenly started using the word "Omaha" as part of his pre play patter.)

Nebraska, and especially Omaha, might be a national joke, but it's a safe national joke. (And, yes, the city fathers did fall to their knees and praise God when Peyton Manning suddenly started using the word "Omaha" as part of his pre play patter.)

worried about "climate risk" to banks.
This is a big part of the ESG song and dance. One of the requirements is that all financial disclosures, including annual reports, break down and list all possible environmental and climate impacts all through the supply chain. Very difficult, expensive and subjective to perform by the companies, and makes for easy targets by enemies. Posted by: Way, Way Downriver at March 07, 2023 12:18 PM (jYCXf) Posted by: Maj.

As a byproduct of the city's practices we here in the Lake George & surrounding area are getting an infestation of these mobile diarrhea puddles.
Rt 87 is a nice straight shot, and the smarter ones have learned to leave the Escalade with the 19's in the city and use the small anonymous 4dr sedan, observing the speed limit etc and draw NO attention. Fortuitously our cops have a hardon for them and make life miserable enough they split for the city. I don't know exactly what kind of information setup the cops have, but it's extremely effective. They handle antifa the same way. Posted by: irongrampa at March 07, 2023 12:27 PM (KATBx) 402
