As mentioned, Walmart Chicago is closing all locations, more than likely due to theft, like Portland. If you ask me, I’d say rip up the buildings and parking lots and put a lot of flats or bus stations or something as a replacement.

    For what it’s worth I hate the term “social safety net”. It implies that government systems are only there to catch you if you fail. In reality government systems are supposed to be systems that work for everyone. Public schools is a system, not a safety net if your parents “fail” and can’t send you to private. Universal healthcare is a system that works, you pay in via taxes and you get healthcare. Not if you “fail”. This is how it works in civilized countries.
