Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4682388, member: 173"] Think back to what Buffalo/Binghamton/ Elmira/etc were like in say…1971 (admittedly some you have to go back a decade earlier). Compare to now. Personally I’ve gotten tired of articles that talk negatively about places in the US. The reality is most of the country looks fairly close to the better favelas I used to drive past in Brazil when I was working there, instead of showing the prosperity they did a couple generations ago. America has been steadily dying throughout my lifetime, and with our current financial situation total collapse in my lifetime is possible - maybe probable. Articles talking about how crappy significant portions of the US are now should scare the hell out of people more than they do - we are in deep, deep trouble. [/QUOTE]
