The one thing Gary hasn't tried is honest government.

I grew up in and near Gary, too. See how the stupid left promotes P.T. Barnum style crapoo that is always Trojan Horsed with graft and crud. The reason Gary is a bust is the fundamental corrosion of its culture beginning with:
1. High School drop out rates that are stratospheric
2. Out of wedlock children
3. Drug infestation
4. Radical Black culture that denigrates women, education, work ethic, and anything white, i.e. Black racism.
5. General drug related violent crime

These are the reasons Gary is a bust. Until the culture evolves out of its Rwanda like condition, nothing will work to bring it prosperity. It will take self-examination and acceptance of responsibility at the family and societal level in Gary to change these conditions. It hasn't happened in 40 years and it isn't likely in the near future while so called Black leaders keep leading our Black brothers and sisters down the fantasy path of victimolgy, social programs, reparations, and reverse racism. It would be nice to personally participate in positive activities to give a helping hand to lift up the people of Gary. It won't happen either, until they reject the Liberal Plantation and start to think and act for themselves. Thanks.

n world class leadership in the likeness of winnie, nelson, n robert;
to bring this "white suppressed" city into the family of the world community...

they keep doin' the same things over n over,
n they expect a different result.
