When the rare process of improving these areas occurs cries of racism and gentrification follows. every time.
These are all good ideas. You could also encourage people to move in with “flat 10% income tax for the next X years” or encourage people to build with “no capital gain taxes on new facilities, buildings, and housing built in the next Y years.”
The “not fair” part of these plans like these is that there are plenty of poor rural places and who could also benefit from similar policies and may be left out. The key to anything like this is objective criteria for qualification.
.……...these are all worthy ideas but few “normal” people will even drive into these neighborhoods until some semblance of law and order and instant justice is imposed. With democrats in charge, this cannot happen.
The only solution has been done many times before in the US and that is martial law in certain areas of Democratic Cities. This neutralizes the Democratic Party on the street and permits policies and programs like Uncle Sham promotes.
The reason cities are toxic waste dumps can be summed up in three words, taxes, regulations and corruption. When GD set up a facility in Tallahssee, they did a mandatory environmental study, even though they were building on a former cow pasture. It cost about $50,000. They had permission to build a huge parking lot. Because they didn’t need the parking for several years, they only built a small lot. When business improved, the city declared they needed yet another $50,000 environmental impact study.
There are several EPA’s who can shut a facility down over ridiculous stuff. There is a city EPA, a county EPA, a state EPA and the federal EPA. Complying with all of them and suffering their regular inspections cost a fortune and required a full time staff who did nothing but deal with them.
Then, there is all the labor restrictions and requirements from all the government entities, which required a full time legal staff and specially trained HR people.
The list goes on and on. On top of it, the city does not want “businesses” (because they want to keep the character of being a small university town.)
Multiply this idiocy and then realize that a small three or four man company can be put out of business in a heartbeat. A friend failed to file a form with the city saying that he had not paid anyone that week, because he had no work. The fine was equivalent to months of paying a full crew.
Cities are sh*tholes because they are run by crooks.
Trump should start a “clean up Baltimore” Gofund me account ....millions would be donated ......
Then he could troll Cummings even more.....
the left would meltdown even more.....which would be worth the donation
I think you could do more good by making overtime tax free.
That would let those that work for a living get ahead, and the lay-abouts would be laid-off.
What do you propose to do with those of us already living on the Mexican border?
Jack Kemp and President Reagan botrh pushed these ideas. When implemented, it is met with limited success. It works better if the area isn’t too far gone.
None of these ideas will survive the first collision with the Junior District Judge from Oakland or Miami-Dade, and the nationwide injunction it would bring...
Declare the Democrat National Committee to be a Criminal Enterprise and open a RICO Investigation on the entire “party”.
Sounds like a good step.
May I propose exempting anyone under 20 from minimum wage?
That puts the bottom rungs back on the ladder to success.

Trump Can Fix The Inner Cities With This One Weird Trick
If that is an okay approach for “inner cities”, it is an okay approach for America. I have never liked the government swooping in to try to favor certain groups over others.
The free market on its own is fine. And as it is, many on welfare of various types stay there rather than take a step down to the living standard of the minimum wage—they certainly aren’t going to opt for remuneration below that.
The simple way to fix this is to send the 30 million+ illegals here currently home. That would help the American “inner city” population, as well as other lower-skill Americans. But it would ding the investor class, and so Trump won’t do it.
Property values tanking is a correction.
It happens periodically.
If you ask the Cato Institute, they’ll say “build private toll roads”. Not that it makes any sense in this context, but that’s about they talk about.
Rudy already PROVED THE ANSWER - simply put bad guys behind bars...that was ALL he did differently.
The rest of the problems took care of themselves once the city was safe.
...of course, that was until they got their current mayor.
How about if conservatives get of their lazy asses and run in these districts instead of staying off the battlefield altogether
