    Do you have any documentation for that?

    Go to a Third World Country that doesn't have Social Programs. Walk around. Make sure you have a Watch and a nice pair of Shoes. Learn what people will do to feed their Families.

    for the same reasons that people in the rust belt are heavily addicted to alcohol or opioids. Automation and robots have replaced a lot of people in manufacturing and coal specifically. people in coal country were offered retraining and turned down so what you've got is a class of people that are pretty much useless.

    Let me rephrase the question. Why would any of them starve or choose to become criminals with all you bleeding hearts claiming to care so much for them? Why is there anyone in poverty with all the claims of caring you bleeding hearts make?

    So your claims of caring are nothing more than meaningless words. Got it.

    If all you bleeding hearts that claim to care actually put your meaningless words in action, no one would starve or choose a life of crime because they went without something. It's clear where the fault lies.

    Really? Is that why unemployment is at a five decade low? There are no jobs? Moron.

    At least Jack acknowledges that Democrat controlled Detroit is a shithole.

    That Detroit is like a 3rd world country proves social programs don't work. He did indicate that he thought 3rd world countries were the way he described because they don't have social programs.

    True, that, and it must be addressed.

    I don't like to visit L.A. anymore. I'd rather stay in the United States.

    No, it hasn't. It has simply changed some of the jobs to better paying ones, and increased productivity, making products cheaper for EVERYONE to buy, Luddite.

    Downtown Detroit at night...two things move...rats, and muggers. A city destroyed by Democrats.

    Homeless camps in San Francisco, a city destroyed by Democrats.

    Homeless camps in Los Angeles, a city destroyed by Democrats.

    The 'third world' is right here in the United States.

    Poverty. Shantytowns (homeless camps). Open sewers. Human waste everywhere. Health hazards of cholera and typhoid everywhere. And the loving, caring, Democrats in charge of these cities do NOTHING about it.
