Thanks for you unsolicited views on economic engines but I dont know what that has to with my post about city government. Globalism did not elect a single mayor in Baltimore. Maybe you should learn to read a post before you reply.
You don’t get the point because perhaps you are a bit obtuse? Globalism and offshoring knocked the economic legs out from under those cities. They had to vote for the politicians that would give them most since we as a nation took away the wealth creation engines of those towns. In Asian cultures this de industrialization is called “taking away their ‘rice bowl’”. Nasty business that.
