Before long, it might seem like the only thing  left to eat in Oakland, California, will be government cheese — a scenario that the Biden regime would probably love.

Sounds a bit extreme, doesn't it? Perhaps, but  consider this: Oakland, much like other liberal hellholes, is deteriorating to the point where even highly successful businesses are getting the hell out. Take the popular hamburger chain In-N-Out Burger, for example.

After 18 years of booming business and continuing  profitability in Oakland, they've decided to close their doors. The reason? The rampant crime has become unmanageable. 

Build Back Better, right? Pff. 

The Blaze:


In-N-Out Burger is planning to shutter its only Oakland, California, location.
The burger joint's lone restaurant in the Bay Area-city has been operating for nearly two decades, and, importantly, it is profitable. But the company announced over the weekend that high crime in the Democrat-controlled city has made it impossible to operate safely.

"Despite taking repeated steps to create safer conditions, our Customers and Associates are regularly victimized by car break-ins, property damage, theft, and armed robberies," In-N-Out chief operating officer Denny Warnick said in a statement. "[T]his location remains a busy and profitable one for the company, but our top priority must be the safety and wellbeing of our Customers and Associates — we cannot ask them to visit or work in an unsafe environment."

Patrons who frequent the restaurant said they are sad about the closure. Unfortunately, they understand why In-N-Out made the decision.

"I'm definitely frustrated," Oakland resident Jenny Goeppner told KPIX-TV. "Because if it's not In-N-Out, it's something else tomorrow."

Resident Darryl Brown added, "These are people's jobs, and it's essential to have jobs so we can spend money in the community."
Oakland, like most other Democrat-controlled cities, is experiencing significant problems with crime. Specifically, crimes like motor vehicle thefts, burglaries, and robberies have skyrocketed in the city.

The In-N-Out in Oakland, which sits just two miles away from Oakland International Airport, has been hit particularly hard by the crime wave.

In fact, security guards who work in the area recently told the San Francisco Standard that they take more calls from the In-N-Out than any other patrol location in the city, with multiple vehicle break-ins happening daily.


Seriously, who  would want to risk their life for a hamburger?

Sure, In-N-Out ranks high in the burger world, but let's be real. If you're residing in Oakland and consistently voting Democrat, isn't there a moment when you question your choices? Looking in the mirror, don't you wonder, 'What the heck am I doing?' Maybe it's high time to explore a different path, to see if the other side can turn things around. Because, evidently, your current choice isn't cutting it.
