When our debt-fueled prosperity ends, a lot more cities are going to end up looking just like Detroit.
I've been saying it for a while. When the money is cut off, they'll smell the smoke of Chicago all the way to Detroit.

One only needs to look at the (D) or (R) behind the mayors name to predict which cities are likely to follow suit.

And the cities we bombed out of existence such as Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Berlin etc look modern, beautiful, vibrant and shining! Such dichotomy!!
But then all those American cities in decline are run by democrats. Will people ever wake up and smell the coffee?

Cities such as Detroit, Cleveland, Baltimore, Memphis, New Orleans, St. Louis and Oakland were all once places where middle class American workers thrived and raised their families. Today, all of those cities are rapidly being transformed into cesspools of filth, decay and wretchedness.
Need any more proof of What happens when Democrats are in control?
All these Cities have had D mayors and councils for as long as I can remember.

There are two key reasons for all this decay, filth, crime, etc. One: all of these places have been run by liberals (NYC has been off and on in that regard). The second......well, if I stated it here I’d probably be banned.

The above cities were abandoned by society's producers - and left to the dependent...

Same thing if the money is so devalued it won’t buy anything. I have long thought that the politicians will keep handing out the money until it won’t buy basic groceries. Same result.

After 47 years and $16 Trilllion dollars are the Democrats ready to admit that their “Great Society” has lost LBJ’s “War On Poverty”?
Heck NO!
They may have lost the war, destroyed our culture and murdered 60 million babies, but as LBJ predicted, they have turned the negroes into a solid democrat voting bloc.

Good article, he references some of his other works too.
California will be like Detroit within a decade.

"...all of these places have been run by liberals (NYC has been off and on in that regard)" At best, a NY City "Republican" like Nanny Bloomberg is just a little bit to the left of FDR and LBJ.

I don’t think LBJ called them “negroes.”

They have gone from a voting bloc to having thier own racist, fascist party running America.

"There are two key reasons for all this decay, filth, crime, etc. One: all of these places have been run by liberals (NYC has been off and on in that regard). The second......well, if I stated it here Id probably be banned." The decline of these American cities is the responsibility of the Marxist Democrat Party and the population that inhabits those cities.
