We have hundreds of lost cities. Newark up north to Maine and as far west as Chicago. All with slowly, or not so slowly, declining house and commerical values, declining private jobs, increased welfare of all types. This has been going on for 30 years.

Now we have lost states. New York, Michigan, Ohio. They are not going to grow in wealth.

I thought “zero growth” was what Europe wanted.

But they’ll try it out again and again. And the social leeches will support it every time.
