What "those jobs" are you referring to?

Coincidence?

I think NOT!

The Cuban flood at Cafecito on Chestnut was great.

The graffiti and murals in Logan Square are not a good as the murals and graffiti in Pilsen.
Probably not a coincidence.

My 2nd apartment was in 215 E. Chestnut. The building where Cafecito is located.

I agree about Pilsen vs. Logan Square. Many years ago I lived on West Armitage. I would venture out in to the neighborhoods nearby. Some impressive murals. Your comment gives me the incentive to look for pics of them.

Sorry I missed you in Chicago! Asshole me would/should have invited you (and your daughter and whoever else you were with) up on my rooftop for the A&W show.
I like that neighborhood on Chestnut. We went to the Logan Square Farmer's Market yesterday. I was impressed with the quantity and quality of the food and produce for sale there. Much larger than I expected. The farmers were all from WI and IN for the most part. They must sell a lot to haul all of that into the city and still make a profit. The neighborhood obviously supports them because the place was packed.

We walk through Unity Park to get to the Blue Line station. My daughter says the locals set up a ring and stage a neighborhood lucha libre event there in September, we just missed it this year. When "THEY" replace the tiki torch crowd, the US will be a much more vibrant and entertaining place.

Are you suggesting granting then work visas?
Practically it makes sense right now, solves two problems at once. Problem is it incentives more to cut in line, and just isn't fair to those who do go through the proper steps.

Give the jobs to whoever wants them. Forget about this cutting in line crap.

We probably do need to mention that the US Chamber is not exactly nonpartisan.

I give you credit. You put a question mark at the end of your sentence - basically admitting your ignorance.
Many of us realize you don't typically take the time to research the shit you post.

Figured you guys would have a logical explanation? Why is Arizona determined to have an open border

Coincidentally after a democrat took over as governor in another controversial election

they’re flood gates to accommodate monsoon rains

them being open isn’t anything new

do you like being led to believe falsehoods? does it feel good being gullible? or, are so dense that you’re just completely oblivious?

Most Americans hate Trump and right wing lies spread to hurt immigrants. Moving on. There is really no point in engaging Randy. It is never about the humanity, always about grievance.

Illegal immigration is a horribly inhumane thing to encourage

Considering that he got more votes in 2020 than any other Presidential candidate in history, I’d say you were a bit biased in your assertions.

Sparko and Trad have points.

Sadly, Randy is so stupid, he's calling The NY Post, which has been owned by Rupert Murdoch's New Corp since 1993, "a left winged outlet".

You can't make Randy's kind of oblivious, clueless, ignorance up, although Psych tries.

Disagreeing with you is not ignorance, unless you are such a narcissist that you can’t fathom anyone having a different perspective. Surely you’re not that much of a narcissist. Anyway, that spot has already been claimed by Overlander.
