I'm shocked firefighters aren't on that list, though I'm sure they're still higher up on that list than cops will ever be.

Still, they're having to call the police so frequently that this parking space made sense to someone. Maybe there's something about their store that needs to change. If a strip club was having to call the police every single day, they'd probably shut the place down.

Absolutely, and they are undoubtedly one of the key players responsible for the global resurgence of fascism—for example, in the form of the current U.S. regime, but at the same time also in other countries, first and foremost Israel, but also in Europe, and in every remaining democracy. Their unlimited resources make this possible, and they want more and more.

As I said: These are humanity’s worst enemies.

You could actually list every billionaire in the world. It’s simply impossible to become that absurdly rich without getting involved in these schemes. They all know each other and would never allow anyone who was even remotely decent to rise to their level.

I've got sciatica in one of my legs. Not bad enough to justify a handicap spot (although those never have a cart coral near them), but bad enough that some days it is, actually, very painful to walk. Especially the walk back from the coral, where I don't have the cart to lean on.

In fact, I often appreciate when people don't put a cart away, and I can find a stray cart on the way to the store.

I still put the carts away when I'm done, and usually try to park near the cart coral as a result...with one exception: this fucking Dollar Tree near me, where their carts are all absolute shit to begin with and there's one cart coral and no parking spots anywhere near it. I park against an embankment under some trees where there is always space and shade.

Usually there's already a cart there waiting for me. When I'm done, I leave it pushed up against the embankment, back wheels on pavement, front wheels on grass, so it can't roll back into the lot, and right in between the parking spots so it is easy to retrieve by the next customer.

It's the reason anarchy can't work.

People aren't capable of self governance.

I'd pull out my libertarian hat out and tell people that the market decided this is the most efficient location for the cart corral. Instructing customers to do otherwise is big government and communist.
