Democrats have run Jackson for decades and decades.....Black Democrats. Spare me the usual BS cries of “racism!” Just like California, just like a lot of other blue shitholes, Democrats running things have done it to themselves.

It turns out that people of both white and black pigmentation move away from criminal neighborhoods and that’s systemic racism as defined by the left.

So this smart move is wrong?

I see the Liars at Ass Press are at it again.

Yes, and I notice the same poster, posting from the Ass Press on a regular basis.

Having seen this issue rear its head in nearby Newark NJ, it is clear nobody wants to ask basic questions about the welfare reservations: “How much will you contribute for ______ (insert “emergency services”, “public works”, “public schools”, etc.)?”

In the end, you get what you pay for, in addition to what the government can force other people to provide for you. Like former African colonies, residents inherited an infrastructure built (and funded) by previous residents, who they often chased out. They “won”; now they can reap what they’ve sown.

This article stated clearly the issue and why Jackson is such a mess and why people left town:

"Jackson’s population has declined since 1980, a decade after the city’s schools began integrating. Many white families left for the suburbs, leaving less revenue to maintain the infrastructure. Middle class Black people then moved out to escape urban decay and rising crime. State and federal spending never made up the difference."
