American cities are becoming like a scene from a dusty, third world market place. From a distance, or from the air, they still look rather impressive...That is until you get close up.

Dirty, very over crowded, unbearable traffic, with many in the crowds babbling endlessly in foreign tongues, many that seem to have little patients, or smug distain for long time American citizens.

All pushing, shouting for the next dollar, many seem bitter or angry in their new found land.

We have actually seen cheap Chinese goods strapped to vehicles driving by, taxis with 5 and 6 huge bill boards on them, where most all the drivers speak little English, and all look like Osama, selling rugs and cheap goods out of their trunks of their cars.

Where nice, quality stores once stood, there are now 99cent stores, or other shops with signs in other languages. Where the foot traffic in many areas has doubled and tripled.....Where seeing 40-year old adults on children's bicycles are common.

Cities where people open up for business over night out of a truck, or small shop, with little concern for laws, regulations, licenses, etc.

Remember how it used to be?

How very sad.

America I hardly new ya......

Yeah, what is going on with this happening now? Me and my wife have even seen adults on tricycles. Weird.
