....the Fishtown types are vanishing.

Really? Where are they going? Or are they just turning into vital statistics?

In the NYC areas the Fishtown areas’ white populations are disappearing through relocation, to the Carolinas, Florida, and other sun belt states. Murray explains the population decline, lack of stable families, lack of marriage, lack of offspring, lack of home ownership due to financial difficulties. Add in the 1960’s immigration policy changes and there hasn’t been much new European immigration to bulk up the Fishtown populations for 50 years. New Jersey didn’t create a single net net job from 2000 to 2010, New York only added jobs net net by increasing government workers, now NY is slashing the gov payrolls. Connecticut now has the highest property taxes in the country, after having nearly the lowest in 1990.

After 2 or 3 generations of declining living standards in NYC metro Fishtowns, you’ll find freepers from the South constantly complaining about liberal Northeasterners moving down South and then voting like liberal Northeasterners.

The collapse of the US Dollar and US Treasury Notes is about the only way we’ll encounter the scenario possibility for some sort of awakening in this country.

Many are moving south, moving to Pennsylvania, or just not reproducing.
