During the 1960s, there were a series of riots that forever
changed the ghettos because none of the romanticist rioters bothered to
consider why they were destroying and looting stores or where they would take
their business afterwards.
I doubt any of them knew that as a result, there would be
less stores and higher prices managed by disagreeable people, driving customers
from the ghettos to higher end neighborhoods to do their shopping.
Before all the rioting, stores could not afford these new
business attitudes because there was so much competition and they would not
have had to if the romanticism that glorified rebellion had not turned communities
against themselves.
