Trains in LA Getting Looted

[ABNARTY]

I  think the only solution to this is to stop doing business with places that ship through the Port of Los Angeles. China, Vietnam, PI, etc. Of course, the government won't stop doing business with them, political realities being what they are, but that would be the government's lookout, I imagine. There is no particular reason we should keep shoveling money into the pockets of looters, and if the government is the only one left doing that, well, then we'd see just how fast it would get cured!

Now, necessarily, that would also involve stopping doing business with businesses that deal with those sorts of items that have to come through that port. Walmart, Amazon, etc. Stopping doing direct business overseas may have an effect, but stopping doing second-hand business will have a much larger effect.

The fly in that ointment is that no one appears to be willing to quit doing business with Walmart or Amazon, or very few are. Folks gotta have their cheap trinkets, I reckon.

"Cheap trinkets" is also how white folks got their original foothold among the Indians here - and we see what came of that!

But some folks never learn. So, I'd guess that people will still keep shoveling their money at the looters.

And looting will therefore always be profitable.

Very true but I am in a bind that way. There are no other stores by me. If I need something, it's Amazon, Walmart, or that's about it. A very bad situation. I am over a barrel.
