“The city needs far more than investment to bring it back.”

Very true! The other reality is that there are literally dozens of “Detroits” within the confines of the United States. I find it interesting (but not surprising) that FUBO wants people to “move to the cities.”
The only rationale is that control is easier. The truth is that our major cities are home to a host of conditions that doom them to becoming “Detroits” sooner or later. We have allowed “ the world’s huddled masses” to “huddle” in our cities sucking the financial guts out of them. There are just too few truly educated minorities as a percentage of their entire groups to effectuate the changes that need to happen in the cities. Sad for them, but sadder for those of us who have created the wealth that they are consuming. Unless there are draconian changes they will “win.” White America birth rate 1.6 per couple, but when you “add in” Blacks and Hispanics it rises to 2.11, So you know who’d doing the breeding don’t you! We are headed toward a minority majority with poverty for all! I am glad I lived in this generation, but I am so sad for my children and now their children.

We are compounding the problem with our immigration policies. We bring in 1.2 million legal immigrants a year, 87% of whom are minorities as classified by the USG. Immigration drives 75% of our population growth.

Bureau of the Census: International Migration is Projected to Become Primary Driver of U.S. Population Growth for First Time in Nearly Two Centuries

"International migration is projected to surpass natural increase (births minus deaths) as the principal driver of U.S. population growth by the middle of this century, according to three new series of population projections released today by the U.S. Census Bureau. This scenario would mark the first time that natural increase was not the leading cause of population increase since at least 1850, when the census began collecting information about residents' country of birth. The shift in what drives U.S. population growth is projected to occur between 2027 and 2038, depending on the future level of international migration."
