So far this decade, 115,000 people have left Cleveland, for other climes.

Nearly 30,000 people have left Youngstown, Ohio.

It's difficult to commute to work when your job has been "Free Traded" to Mexico, India or China

It's especially difficult when the workforce is owned by the mob infested unions, undereducated, antagonistic and full of unearned respect that they can't compete with 3rd world workers.

Unlike the sian places mentioned, the Ohio cities were union where the object is to do as little as possible for more than the labor is worth.

Competition runs the world. Don’t compete, become a loser.

The majority of these cities have black majorities or pluralities. Scranton is the most noteworthy exception, largely populated by elderly neer do wells of Irish and Polish ancestry.

Correction: Its difficult to commute when your skills are no better than an uneducated peasant woman in China and/or automation has made fat screwpolishers replaceable.

Yeah, that full employment rate of 94.5% is tearing this nation apart.
