I've spoken about this repeatedly, and I'll say it again.

This is the first time in our history that city leaders have completely abandoned their oaths, basic services, and quality of life issues.

These Mayors and city councilmen, they simply don't care. They are there to get their exorbitant pay and perks and at the end of the day they go home to their family in their tony 5 bedroom house in the suburbs or exburbs and pour themselves a glass of wine.

That's the new norm in America now.

We're living through the failure of cities. Starting several decades ago, they've become very hostile to raising families and have no present, much less a future. The concept of commuting into cities was the warning sign.

You sure got that right!!

I vividly remember the mayor of DC back in the late 90s. A whacko, crackhead two-time mayor by the name of Marion Barry. That’s when I became vividly aware of the decay and absolute rot in many US cities. LA, Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans, Memphis, NYC (before Giuliani), and several others. These cities, for the most part, had one thing in common (you guess).

These cities were shitholes then and even worse today.

And then, lo and behold we get the same leadership for our country in the mid-2000s. Guess what happened. The shithole rot metastasized like fast-growing cancer across the whole country!!

Whatever happened to HOPE?? Remember that mantra from a well-known president.

It’s not turning out too well is it?

these mayors and city councils are being paid for under the table IMO....they don't seem to worry about being reelected...

my nice conservative town has turned into another leftist dream because the rats figured out how to steal the elections and it will not end....
