Everything good is capitalism and everything bad is socialism. Socialism has never worked and capitalism can not fail, it can only be failed. 
Is that the same comment that blames the city for making downtown more walkable too?
yes siree it is
Walkable implies people living there and there's like no one on the streets

Having no suburban-tier treats is like having communism, so this must be communism's fault. 
All the old taquerias are still operating and thriving there, though, thank the lord
