Liberals are like a cancer. They screw up Chicago...they move on and infest a better ‘host’ (like Colorado).
Sure the dirt poor are trapped in Chicago, Detroit, etc...but the white guilt, limo liberals of the world just pull up stakes and move.

Looks like the ‘Chicago way’ of doing things doesn’t sit well with a lot of people.

We will need to wall it off when they go bankrupt, this is going to be the real test for America’s survival, does the federal government succeed in taxing and borrowing money to bail out bankrupt states,,its a corrupt sewer politically speaking..

I really think we are beginning to see the wholesale abandonment of U.S. cities. Look at Detroit for instance. My feelings are mixed, as I don’t want city arseholes anywhere near me, thank you very much. Places like my town of Rutland have been infested enough as it is. On the other hand this really puts a wrench into the UN’s Agenda 21 plans.

So how can they still produce enough votes to keep the crazies in power here in Illinois??? I was listening to Don and Roma this morning interview Jan Cichowski. Wow what a left wing loony!! They should call her (Jan in wonderland)

Chicago, the new Detroit!
Probably a lot more accurate statement than you realize and the fall will make Detroit look like a success story.

Well, we could always turn the big cities into maximum security prisons.

I really think we are beginning to see the wholesale abandonment of U.S. cities. That's the reality.
However, in the fantasyland of the Progressives, we need to herd everyone into cities. The suburban sprawl is a problem and we need to let nature reclaim vast areas of the country. We need urban centers connected by highspeed rail. We will spend billions and trillions trying to achieve this goal.
Meanwhile, the reality of people abandoning cities will continue.
