With 27 Vacancies in San Francisco's Mission District : No Permit for Apparel Store

Club For Growth reports on the pro-unemployment city of San Francisco:
We of course know that people in San Francisco are far-left politically, but there clearly is no satisfying these people, if you're in business.

American Apparel wants to open a new store in the Mission district, and of course they need a permit. But despite 27 vacant storefronts on the street for the proposed location, not to mention 9%+ unemployment, over 400 people showed up at a hearing to chant and criticize against the permit because the store would wreck the area's "magic."
The destruction of property rights hurts those who want to get a job.It's sad when you give monopoly powers to a bunch of thugs to restrict employment.
