Local Stupidity

My loyal readers know I reside in Los Angeles. And I like to highlight the stupidity of our city council.

Since they have fixed all the sidewalks (NOT!!), the city council has decided to outlaw new fast food joints in South Central LA. Because, you know, black people and latinos don't know any better than to eat at McDonald's for every meal. It just doesn't get any more paternalistic than this. (Except of course for "Republican" Mayor Bloomberg outlawing trans fat in NYC).

These ridiculous clowns need to get their priorities straight for crying out loud. They can't fix any streets and traffic lights and sidewalks because they are busy attacking Walmart and now fast food restaurants.

It is simply UNBELIEVABLE that the city council is preventing businesses from opening in South LA. I thought the whole problem was that there were not ENOUGH businesses and jobs in that area. Remember the riots?!? If the council is hellbent on stifling economic prosperity I do not want to hear a damn thing about the poor people of South LA. The councilmembers can take care of them out of their own pockets.
