Not better everywhere
To the funny pants-on-fire blurb that said the economy is better: Ask the 800 people in Missouri who lost their jobs because Harley-Davidson is moving to Taiwan. Ask the 800 people in Chicago who lost their jobs because Mondelez-Nabisco went to Mexico. See how they think the economy is better.
Drone zone
In Chicago and everywhere else, what’s wrong with using drones to monitor special events? With everything that’s going on now, stop being so self-centered and think that it’s only you. It would be for everyone else.
Self-investigation
Why can’t Theresa Plascencia investigate herself? I mean Trump does it all the time. Congress, they have their own thing. She should have hers too. Women’s rights you know.
Never forget
This comment is to the person who called in “Pants on fire”: This person really likes President Trump. My condolences to him. You want to know why Trump lies? Think back. Remember when he took office and he said Obama had all sorts of microphones around the area in the White House? He never proved it. He’s all talk. When he said he lies, yes we agree with him because he talks out of both sides of his mouth. If he ever had a comment, he’d change his mind in the next day or two. We will remember in 2020.
Google it
The snowflakes at Google are debating about whether the technology that Google produces should be used by the military or the government of the United States. If Google does not allow America, its military and its government to use the products it sells to everybody else for good uses, they won’t have to wait long until China obliterates everybody around them. China or Russia, or some other rogue country that doesn’t care about freedom of speech or individual rights, and they’ll take over Google and they’ll tell you what to think. They won’t ask you if you want to.
Stop giving
I guess Waukegan residents haven’t figured it out yet. Don’t feed or give money to the folks that are sitting at the corner. I spoke to some of them, and they just informed me that they come to Waukegan because Waukegan gives the most money. They live in Zion. They’ve lived up in Gurnee. They live up in North Chicago. They live outside of Waukegan, but Waukegan continues to feed them.
