Pennsylvania runs its “State Stores”—where you go to buy your alcohol. Been doing it for many decades. At least. Since I was a young girl—and now I am old. If …
Instead of trying to make eureka more like LA maybe you should just move back to LA
Love John’s work.
I mean, if we one day find ourselves in a post scarcity utopia then sure, save all the dogs. But half the County budget goes to Health and Human Services, …
Just FYI, traffic circles are smaller than roundabouts. Arcata has a couple of traffic circles, at the intersections of I St. & 13th and I & 12th(?).
Maybe we should call it “the weave”. Maybe not.
Let the cops apply elsewhere if they think they don’t make enough money. We have more cops than crime here in Fortuna anyway, and they do next to nothing about …
And Winco is employee owned.I like this idea and I don’t. I think a city owned and operated grocery store should be geared towards low income folks, not those who …
Sorry to split the thread. This source says that noncompete clauses on property deeds longer than a few years are likely unenforceable: https://legalclarity.org/ar…
The history of law is also that of challenges to the law. Law is held stable until a successful challenge. We have learned that lots over the last 10 months.
I picked no, but not for the reason presented. I’m just not sure Eureka, the city, can get grocery prices much lower than WINCO. WINCO has substantial buying power.
Don’t forget the main ingredients: PRIDE, ENVY, GREED, GLUTTONY, at least four of the seven deadly sins are embodied in capitalism. In you probably more if your posts are any …
https://subsidytracker.goodjobsfirst.org/parent-totals Read this, and then get back to me regarding why you have a problem with the government subsidizing food stores. If you don’t get back to me about the …
Ok.
I know this: The current model for the predatory capitalist economy is headed for a big fall. What is YOUR solution for affordable groceries? More of the same predatory capitalism? …
Oh yea, by the way, the locals voted to raise our combined sales tax rate to one one the highest in the lower 48.
Let’s vote on things we most surely don’t need. We have Winco, Safeway, Target, Walmart, Natural Foods, North Coast Co-op. I think we’re quite full of grocery stores
Your opinions are so unfortunate and I feel sorry for you and your lack of empathy for animals. Humans are not the only beings that deserve to live and any …
I just volunteer. So no I don’t know the exact data you’re requesting. This shelter rarely euthanizes. I’ve never seen any animal be euthanized there as long as I’ve volunteered. …
The Hoopa tribal government operates a grocery store. So a government owned and operated grocery store has already been successful in Humboldt County.I think the idea is admirable, but I …
The Bayshore Mall is still owned by a Santa Rosa property holder, and they’re still charging rent at Santa Rosa rates…… This is a big reason why the mall has …
What is Eureka’s budget deficit now?And what the hell does the city know about running a grocery store?
Luckily nobody is a communist or a socialist. Fuck sakes.
You’re almost hysterical right now.
No shit, especially when it’s just a big pyramid.
I said thousands OR millions as in NY but you know that.
Sadly places like this alway start out nice, but seem to end up being dumpy and dirty. I’ve seen it happen in Arizona, SoCal and PA (all where I have …
Its not millions of people, its roughly 25,000 people paying for this, remember, a city ran grocery store, the fed isnt involved. But wait, minus those who are unemployed, unable …

Safeway, Grocery Outlet, Ray’s, Murphy’s, Winco, Co-Op, Eureka Natural Foods, Costco, Walmart, Target, and so many others. Does Humboldt County really need another place to buy groceries?Why can’t this effort …
