Yep.\u00a0 In their election yesterday of the \u201cprogressive\u201d choice, Chicago voters (or however it is that they decide these things there) picked the candidate who thinks law and order is racist<\/a>.\u00a0 So on with the descent into hell.\u00a0 Probably this election should be enough to empty out Chicago of anyone who loves their children.<\/p>\n

After all, four more years of gang-bangers and car-jackers running the city should be enough to convince even those not paying attention that Chicago will be kind of tough on kids.\u00a0 What with a school system that doesn\u2019t teach, an open-air drug market on every corner and a race war brewing in the streets you\u2019d have to be an idiot not to get your kids the hell out of there.\u00a0 So, Chicago will become like Detroit, a city of those who can\u2019t get out.\u00a0 The criminals will feed on the weak and the strong will become the political leaders and feed on the weak and misery will dominate a once great American city.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s the dynamic.\u00a0 The Democrats have their people and they will keep them in charge regardless of how miserable conditions become.\u00a0 So be it.\u00a0 Democracy says it respects the will of the people no matter how stupid it is.\u00a0 We might as well too.\u00a0 We\u2019ll see how this pattern plays out.\u00a0 All the larger urban centers, especially those in the blue states will probably follow suit.<\/p>\n

Now, how does this election impact us?\u00a0 Only as a confirmation that we are beyond thinking that the consequences of the Left\u2019s policies will convince people to throw them out of office in the areas where their natural constituencies predominate.\u00a0 This is the evolution of dependency that began with the Great Society programs of the 1960s; whole cities and even regions made up of nothing but people subsisting on welfare.<\/p>\n

The parts of the country we need to consider are the ones where there are enough people left who still want a future.\u00a0 These are the places that may have a chance to head off the same fate.\u00a0 To do this they need to strictly enforce immigration laws and limit welfare benefits to only the truly deserving.\u00a0 Doing this will be an enormous struggle against the full power of the federal government pushing for the opposite of these policies.\u00a0 Florida and some of the other red states are the test cases for this.\u00a0 The struggle will be for them to get their cities under control, even against the will of the \u201cdemocratic\u201d majorities within them.\u00a0 If they can\u2019t then eventually the functional population will be outnumbered by the non-functional urban dwellers and these states will become blue states.\u00a0 And they will join Chicago and Illinois.<\/p>\n

There you have it.\u00a0 Another data point in the evidence of our decay.\u00a0 In the same week we had Donald Trump victimized by the anarcho-tyrannical nincompoop that George Soros installed as Manhattan\u2019s district attorney.\u00a0 And Wisconsin elected a progressive state supreme court justice to tip the balance of that court progressive.\u00a0 Everything moving along nicely toward the hive future we\u2019ve been promised.\u00a0 Let\u2019s hope there are a few good men who plan to put up a fight.\u00a0 But we won\u2019t find them in Chicago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
