What a couple of idiots. As if this happened overnight..... :roll: Plenty of Conks in these places tried and failed, too. And, as if any of you Conks really give a fvck about poor people, anyway! Especially black poor people.

Many of these cities were set up by Conk industrialists who mismanaged their businesses and could not see future trends (autos, steel), then, when things got sh*tty, instead of innovating and retooling and preserving our manufacturing heritage, the cvnts moved everything to Mexico and China, leaving us with our huge Rust Belt.

Thanks, capitalism!!!!

Actually I think the problem is they are all East of Missoula. That is clearly why they are so full of fail.

Did you not read the post at all? He pointed out the last time each city had Republican leadership.

So no, it didn't 'happen overnight'. In most cases, it happened over many consecutive decades of Democratic leadership.

No, it's your fault for being dumb, lazy fucks and basing your entire economy on slave labor. Now you're dependent on the krauts and nips to provide manufacturing jobs. :nod: :rofl:

seems automobiles can be ASSEMBLED in the Southern Confederacy cheaper than they can be BUILT in the 'late united states' because of the yankees and their love for unions. So WHO WON AGAIN?

coming from you that's really RICH!

Many of these cities were set up by Conk industrialists who mismanaged their businesses and could not see future trends (autos, steel), then, when things got sh*tty, instead of innovating and retooling and preserving our manufacturing heritage, the cvnts moved everything to Mexico and China, leaving us with our huge Rust Belt.

Cap'n: that, honestly, might be the absolute worst attempt to respin an argument that I've ever seen on this board. From the guy who constantly hammers on people using references to any historical happening more than about 30 years old, to blame these cities' current malaise on the industrialists who ORIGINALLY set up those cities is fucking laughable. 1907, 1908, 1949, 1952, 1954....NEVER....these cities are the poster child for democratic leadership. You should continue letting KY Jelly be the purely democratic shill....it's unbecoming of your stature here. :coffee: :coffee:
