For reasons that aren't relevant to my point, I've been taking the bus a couple of times a week in the last month or two. This is in a middle to upper-middle class suburb of Seattle. It is shocking how many derelicts, druggies, crazies, etc., are on the bus EVERY TIME.

It seems that liberalism has created in the last four decades a HUGE underclass of unemployable, weird people. Maybe I'm forgetting how it used to be, but it seems that the number of these people has grown in leaps and bounds.

You’re not forgetting.

“It seems that liberalism has created in the last four decades a HUGE underclass of unemployable, weird people.”

And we are importing tens of thousands more of them. Years ago, these people would have starved to death in the gutter. Today the government supports them and allows more of them to enter the country.

I live in Pierce county and have been thinking the exact same thing recently.

It has to be part of why employers have become so dependent on immigrant labor. Foreigners weren’t brought up in the toxic social stew that American life has become since about 1965.

Of course, their kids grow up with this crap and start to act just as crazy. I work mostly with foreign born coworkers these days and some are beginning to wonder if they should just go back home.

I also go down to Portland a lot for shopping. Even the upscale neighborhoods are becoming overrun with derelicts and the local government refuses to help business owners.

I’m convinced cities like Seattle and Portland are just asking to become Detroit.
