The result of deindustrialization, incompatible cultural change (Puerto Ricans were brought in in the '60s for cheap labor then the factories moved for even cheaper and better labor), acceptance of political corruption (the old way as was done in Sicily), and the liberal welfare state, are the reasons a nation's city, Lawrence, once the most concentrated industrial and productive city in the nation, will die a painful death and is in the throes of death presently.
