.
In other words, Walmart can survive without these Portland stores, but the small businesses cannot.

Look at that quote above. It’s hard for me to contain my utter contempt and disgust with the people who proclaim, “oh, they’re insured.” That’s a horrible, heartless and disgusting thing to say to someone who is watching their life’s work come apart on them while being recompensed pennies on the dollar.

As economist Herb Stein famously said, “something that can’t continue, won’t.” Most of our big cities, not just Portland, are on a trajectory that can’t continue. But they keep voting in the people that put them on that trajectory.
