Business Decisions

So the Minneapolis City Council has decided to disband its police department. It seems clear that the department had multiple institutional problems with who it hired, how it trained them and who it retained, but the idea of a major metropolitan area completely disbanding its entire police department without any real plan in place beyond "investing in community-based safety programs" is nigh onto lunacy.

That sound you hear is the Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce director printing résumés and St. Paul realtors printing extra business cards. And bumping prices on just about every listing they have.
