Why Milwaukee Is Sunk, Part 3

Sad that this has to be written.  For a moment there, it could have been different.

Strauss Brands LLC has dropped its plans for a slaughterhouse and meat processing plant on Milwaukee's north side after opposition surfaced from the Common Council member whose district would have hosted the facility.

Strauss had planned to relocate its operations from Franklin to Century City Business Park, which has struggled to attract development.

That $60 million project would have initially brought 250 jobs — with the workforce possibly doubling within 10 years....

Milwaukee's political class is of the opinion that professional sports buildings will be all Milwaukee needs to prosper.

No cops, no schools (buildings only, no learning here), no jobs.  Just entertainment venues.

OK, then.
