Gilroy To Reject More Money, More Jobs, More Boobs?
It seems the city of Gilroy is all set to find a way to reject Ante Bilic’s proposal to turn the floundering El Amigo Restaurant on San Ysidro Ave into a topless bar that would not only generate cash for the city, but also produce jobs for young women here in town. As it is many men drive up to San Jose and Sunnyvale to go to strip clubs on a regular basis. This means their spending money at gas stations and other businesses along the way as well when Gilroy could be collecting some of that tax revenue. Not to mention that women from the South County area are already traveling up to those very same clubs to work – also spending more of their earnings in those towns rather than here at home.
Although the Gilroy Dispatch poll is currently running 2-to-1 against allowing the club to open, the comments show the exact opposite sentiment with only a few dissenters taking the time to voice their objections. Most of the objections seem to be unfounded since the club’s proposed site is in an area of town that is already zoned for “Adult Businesses” (ie. not located near schools, parks, religious institutions, etc.). They simply seem to be concerned about the possible increase in crime and/or traffic in the area.
None of the objections seem to be over the increased number of women getting boob jobs in order to better profit at the club. Personally, I think this is a wonderful sign of growth amongst my small town neighbors. Perhaps it’s a result of such classy and professional businesses as Mya Cosmetic Surgery. Maybe it’s the common acceptance of plastic surgery by celebrities – Nikki Grahame had Mya Cosmetic perform her mother’s face lift, then they shared the details with Now Magazine for the whole world to read. Or maybe it’s the fact that many, many more women are having breast augmentation themselves these days. Regardless, it’s nice to see that objection essentially cleared from the debate.
Now if we could just do something about the moralists, the NIMBYs, and those who simply don’t understand how real world economics function to see the light we might actually be on our way towrds freedom and the prosperity it always brings.
