September, 2015: Tropic Hut Cafe Forced To Close So That
State Of Nevada Can Give Lease To Handicapped Person
You read that headline correctly. After eighteen months of working 70 hours
a week and pouring everything I had into this business, the foul scumbags of government
pulled the rug out from under me - in the name of helping people.
My cafe was in a county building, which means the food service facility was
overseen by the so-called Business Enterprise of Nevada. There is absolutely nothing
"business" like nor "enterprising" about Business Enterprise of Nevada. It's a sham run
by over-paid, incompetent buffoons who were obviously hired to meet some "diversity"
goal for government employee statistics.
When I first took interest in buying this cafe, I could hardly believe how
clueless the people were who ran this little corner of Nevada State government.
They didn't even know what it meant when I proposed the lease needed a
Guaranteed Option To Renew. I explained a business needs the guaranteed option so that a landlord -
in this case the vermin of state government - could not just yank a lease, thus killing the
business. They assured me so long as I paid my rent and didn't do anything illegal, there would be
no problem with me keeping the cafe as long as I wished.
This was a bald faced lie. They fully intended to re-assign the lease to a disabled person as soon as
such a person could be found who wanted to run a cafe. This is how the state agency keeps its funding,
and how the over-paid state flunkeys keep their cushy jobs. I'm all for helping handicpped persons.
But is it really a benefit to help a disabled person by destroying the livelihood of an able-bodied person -
and his four employees?
I had turned that facility into a better cafe than it had been under any previous owner, ever.
That's not a boast or an exaggeration; it's what dozens of my customers told me time after time.
I gave the cafe a theme, atmosphere, installed a music system and created a fantastic menu
that was exceedingly successful. So-called "Business Enterprise of Nevada" destroyed the best
business run by the most enterprising owner ever to occupy that location.
This is why business owners have learned to detest government.
A government agency with the astonishing name of "Business Enterprise Of Nevada"
intentionally and with malice mutilated a successful venture.
Never trust government.
