    Maybe in the future, there won't be any more businesses in California, and everyone can be given a slice of bread, a can of bugs, and a bucket of reclaimed water.

      Owner literally said the lease increased. Can’t blame libs for rent increases they are historically for rent control but I’m sure facts won’t matter to y’all anyway.

      ​@@guybeingaguy Does this mean you think the founders of McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King, and countless other businesses are still running them? Founders retire all the time; if the business is still profitable it'll stay open with someone else in charge. By far the most common outcome when a founder retires is they sell the place to fund their retirement.

      My sources are saying these were not restaurants but a factory making Jewish space lasers.
      Funded by Soros and directed by The Big guy, corrupt Sleepy Joe I call ‘em.
      The initial plan our sources have emails are sketchy right now.
      Looks like they are going to lock up Trump and zap him with a laser.
      This buisness owner is in on it.
      He’s not retiring he’s closing a vast right wing Jewish space laser project funded by Soros, Obama, Clinton and Andrew Jackson, Gerorge Santos, Popeye and SpongeBob.
      Retirement is what the libs want us to believe.
