#2 McDonald's? Even Muslim taxi drivers won't deliver pizza on the southside of Chicago! I'm not sure how the convenience stores get supplied or even get employees to work!!!

#4 It's a hard one to explain, huh.

You have big-chain grocery stores like Dominicks, Jewel, Aldi, etc all around Chicago's south side in the various suburbs. Same stores are on the north side.

Yet the big box chain supermarkets won't come into the south side of Chicago.

Wonder why ... [ponders, scratches head, ponders some more]

This is the same Chicago that wouldn't let Walmart open a store on the south side because it would 'depress wages'. So Walmart went across the street into a suburb. Chicago got the traffic, the suburb got the taxes.

[ponders some more]

Maybe it's because the business environment is as toxic as the social environment on the south side? That the Chicago south side aldermen have their collective hands out to be buttered? That the 'community leaders' spend too much time reading Saul Alinsky and not enough time reading Hayek and Milton Friedman? That Chicago has the highest sales tax in the region? That crime is getting crazy? That the supermarkets can't assemble a decent sized parcel of land? That the Mayor is too busy doing deals with his friends and not enough doing deals for his citizens?

[ponders some more]

Nah, that couldn't be it.
