Nabber has his priorities:
Not mentioned: #10: Galveston, TX.With all due respect to northern Freepers,
My comment is:1. BUFFALO,NY —Yankees
2. FLINT, MICHIGAN —Yankees
3. DETROIT, MICHIGAN —Yankees
4. CLEVELAND, OHIO —Yankees
5. HARTFORD, CT —Yankees
6. NEW ORLEANS, LA —Whodats
7. ALBANY, NY —Yankees
8. ATLANTIC CITY, NJ —Yankees
9. ALLENTOWN, PA —YankeesSo, who cares?
Yeah, what does the north do for the south, except for massive subsidies?
FormerACLUmember thinks their problem would be solved by cities taking in no revenue at all:
Who needs to pay the Police and Fire departments?Bull****!
Each of these 10 cities would be super-prosperous successes if they:
1) got rid of the thieving democrat party hacks in charge.
2) lowered all taxes
3) fired all the crooked public union workers
4) got rid of all the socialist hyper-regulations
5) zero corporate taxes
6) no sales taxes
7) make it easy to open a new business in 1 hour at no cost
bigredkitty1 blames desegregation:
Just an unintended result of the desegregation of DISD schools in the ‘70’s. Parents fled Dallas rather than have their children attend inner-city schools, only after being bussed halfway across the city. The DemocRATS are reaping what they have been sowing for the last 40 years.hosepipe is a bit less subtle with his racial politics:
The democrat party is toxic in a hundred ways..Palladin has a city he'd like to add:
It has even partially screwed up the republican party..
Black culture sucks on a massive scale.. it poisons everything it touches..
The mexicans are bringing mexico to the south weastern U.S. too..
Mexifornia ia already decomposing.. in an advanced stage..
Add Harrisburg, PA. to the list. Since they elected a black female mayor, they are sinking faster than the Titanic!Damn black women, they kill cities!
Frantzie is not happy about Dallas of all places:
Dallas is rapidly turning into a toilet. The Texas GOP is infested with open-border RINO’s like Florida’s GOP.Macoozie thinks NYC is gonna die:
there is little reason to live IN NYC. Everything can be done less expensively, more cleanly and with more future viability OUTSIDE of NYC. Wall Street is doomed.The UN: propping the the NYC economy with unpaid parking tickets!
Once the United Nations is pushed off the the edge of Manhattan island, turn off the lights, the partys over.
ReneeLynn is a fly in the ointment though:
Pittsburgh did not wait long for steel jobs to come back and then die. They decided they needed to expand. Medical research, tech, etc. I just can’t explain how they did that with Democrats and unions. It’s mind boggling.Mind boggling! It's almost as if Democrats and minorities tend to live in all cities, good and bad.
Right Wing Assault finds the mythology that solves the problem of Pittsburgh:
Cities may be full of liberals, but it is the Republicans in the suburbs that are propping them up! Except when they aren't and then it's the liberals fault.My guess is that a number of the “dead” cities are surrounded by reasonably prosperous suburbs, more likely populated by GOP/conservative folks.
They are supporting each other and/or there is still some kind of life in the central city.
GOPsterinMA knows what this means: Civil War time!
Well, the War of Northern Aggression lasted 4 years, I suspect if there's a part 2 it would be shorter...
I have lived in Northern Virginia and now sadly in the South. The South is a third world dump, the dirt, the insane driving, lack of courtesy and professionalism rival any third world country.
ReplyDeleteI have visited India,China and Brazil and the South is just a tiny notch above these places. I suspect that had the South succeeded in seceding from the North, the CSA would be just like Mexico. I always like to rub it into the faces of the Southrons.
