How do Democrats get you to support them? They manipulate the facts and force you agree with them. Case in point. Philadelphia is currently in a struggle to lose its expanding restaurant industry by removing the free market, economic pressures and instituting the illegalization of a legal activity. I am not a smoker, although I do enjoy a good cigar now and then, but am against the expansion of government regulations that could drastically change the economics of this great city. Believe it or not, Philadelphia had the most 4 and 5 star restaurants of any city besides New York. Le Bec Fin, Morimoto's, The Striped Bass and Susanna Foo's are just a few of the greats eateries the city offers. Regulation such as the City Council is proposing would cause bars and restaurants to leave the city to follow their customers outside the city. If there are so many people that are against smoking in restaurants, then why are more non-smoking places not popping up? But, his measure has failed 3 times, and now John Street is attempting to elicit the citizens with a bogus survey. Check out this junk survey on Phila.gov. This just goes to show that surveys of a political nature can be manipulated to garner any desired response, especially with yes/no responses. For example, check out question #5. 5) Should we just let the FREE MARKET work? Will people go to facilities which fail to adequately protect them from cigarette smoke? This idiotic question is completely counterproductive. Yes, we should just let the free market work, and No people will not go places which would fail them. That is the benefit of the free market, morons. It does me proud when I can evidence how narrow-minded the city's administration is. Which one of John Street's Family members got paid to create this survey? |
