nt & Fishtown--On diverging classes in the United States (long)
I grew up in an affluent suburb of Chicago on the North Shore. (I was one of those who dragged down the average income!) I remember a series of shocks as I matured and went out into the real world; i. e. the first time I saw children looking for something to eat from a garbage can overseas. I see the young people growing up in my home town now and think of it as an “affluent ghetto,” a place where the children grow up with the same kind of tunnel vision of the world as the kids in the city projects.
And when the SHTF they will be amongst them that can not fend for themselves and live off the land if needed.
Sorry, but the elite urbane rich like sports. I don’t know about Boston, but they certainly do in NYC and DC.
