The issue is $$$$. If you just flood an area with businesses it'll just push the poor people somewhere else. You have to address poverty. This thread is stupid, but not shocking since the OP is someone just playing a character.
Serious question: Did you just watch Barbie last night and now you are determined to not be a part of the patriarchy? With respect to all races, it's not the communities of white men that are committing crime at high rates, abandoning their sons, scoring poorly in school, and scaring away commerce. This is true globally - not just here in the USA.
Men are abandoning their children, men commit high rates of violent and sexual crimes, men are the ones that are making the decisions.......... and if we are going to make changes, we need to acknowledge that men, especially white men - built this sinking ship. Women deserve a chance to have a large influence in the future. As for Barbie - I have never seen it, but I did date a cheerleader in law school and everyone called her Barbie.
How come Bahrain, Singapore, Japan, Kuwait, and Oman are the 5 countries with the lowest homicide rates in the world, all without whitey?
IMO you have to have people with "skin in the game" and (I am not sure this is possible) but find people who are not interested in power or making money, but they do it because they want THEIR community to thrive. Get the politics out of Urban Planning, but I am not sure that's possible.......Get the Ken Paxton`s of the world out, he doesn't care about you or I, he only cares about himself. The other huge obstacle is you have competing priorities for the people in every community, you cant please everyone and some people will be left pissed off.
It's funny, because building OUT instead of UP is what is now eating that tax-basis. Boomers (and probably the next oldest generation and the next and next) will leverage the future for a quick buck NOW. GOOD LUCK
Easy question to answer. None of those countries have the demographic group that have the highest crime rates globally. The same group we are trying to help with the topic of this thread.
After we deal with a few major cities, maybe we can turn our attention to the dozen horribly run Republican STATES across the south.
What’s a good example ? How about the city of Oakland They’ve lost all the major sports teams All their businesses are leaving and crime is up @AroundTheWorld there’s a lot of smart tech ceos in that area but the politicians are dumber than suckers trying to ice skate uphill @Salvy
That's true; give people a reason to move back to cities, create a supply shortage, real estate values go up, people who can afford a higher lifestyle, who are usually more responsible, move in. Of course, there is a percentage of people who stay...and are homeless. Now what?
Pharaoh's ruled for what, 2000 years? The Chinese, Indus, Persians, Mongols? None-white dudes have dominated this planet historically. What really built this sinking ship is that we are all just animals (apex predators on our planet), in a survival of the fittest food chain, competing for limited resources in a failing ecosystem. Add in social media and it's a hellscape.
Here are the only states where violent crime has increased since 1991. Every other state has decreased. The overall decrease for the U.S. is 49.8% New Hampshire 5.3% Wisconsin 7.2% Hawaii 7.4% Arkansas 8.8% Alaska 23.6% West Virginia 45.5% Vermont 90.1% South Dakota 107.1% Montana 198.9% North Dakota 327.9%
