Poorest Cities in America -Is this a Political reason or a Way of Life

The Ten Poorest Cities in America

Mayors run Cities, Governors run States so what do the Democratic Mayors blame this on if not the goals of the Democratic Party at all levels! Isn’t that party’s politics enslaving the same people who continue to support the Party line of ”safety nets ensaring the fish that came to feed on others…” To me a moronic sense of leadership. Or a method to replace Democracy with the Party line of the Welfare State.

What other conclusion could an onlooker call it? Wake up Democrats!! Elect new Democrats at all levels…or give the Republican or Independent party a chance…there must be some right thinking Democrats, Republicans, or Independents with fiscal and moral responsibility…or continue to embrace poverty in some of the most famous and formerly productive Cities of this Great Country…Wake Up!!  

TEN POOREST CITIES (Interesting to say the Least)

TEN POOREST CITIES

City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level
1. Detroit , MI 32.5%
2. Buffalo , NY 29.9%
3. Cincinnati , OH 27.8%
4. Cleveland , OH 27.0%
5. Miami , FL 26.9%

7. El Paso , TX 26.4%
8. Milwaukee , WI 26.2%
9. Philadelphia , PA 25.1%
10. Newark , NJ 24.2%

What do the top ten cities (over 250,000 population) with the highest poverty rate all have in common?

Detroit, MI (1st) hasn’t elected a Republican mayor since 1961.

Einstein once said:

‘The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.’

It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats yet they are still POOR!

 

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence.

You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.”

THIS IS WORTH PASSING ALONG
