My first city council meeting

[Beestie]

Another city council member said it wouldn't be fair to local businesses that pay rent in strip malls, etc.

The council member that said that is so fucking retarded its beyond belief. Why is party A who rents private property from Party B put at a disadvantage when Party X (Radar) rents private property from Party Z? What if, by extraordinary co-incidence, Party B owns both parcels? Please characterize the disadvantage in that scenario. Also, please explain how Party Z (landlord of the 2nd parcel) is not put at a disadvantage by being prohibited from putting his/her land to its highest and best use by being permitted to lease to Party X? That amounts to an economic subsidy to Party B from Party X. Pure, unadulterated BS.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why I will never live in California. That, and mud. And Jeanine Garafolo.
