The city wants to control every aspect of everything a business does. Sure, it has fine foundations, but it's getting out of control and businesses are reacting.

I mean, at what level will these issues become an issue to most of yall?

40% of businesses closing? An even larger population loss? More crime?

I just don't understand.

You think loosening "regulations" is the sliver bullet to reverse population loss and solve crime? Lol ok.
