1. Mexico isn't sending their people to this country. We spend a lot of money for the border. >guns are banned in Mexico Factually incorrect. They have restrictions on guns, but guns are not banned. 2. By the time that a Democrat became mayor of Detroit, Detroit had lost nearly 200,000 people from the collapse in their local economy. If the current state of Detroit is down to the local policies, then the most you can say is that Republicans caused the collapse, but Democrats were unable to fix it. And again, a big part of the reason for California's housing issue, is they literally aren't building enough houses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_housing_shortage Also those cities are doing well by the standards listed in your article about how Detroit isn't doing well. So if that list is void, then so is your article you shared.
I will say it again. These are complicated issues. Economy, crime, etc. Specialists will spend upwards of a decade of their life studying each of these subjects. And you think you've got it all figured out from cherry picked examples. Any comment that "Democrats are bad", "Any taxes are bad", "Any regulations are bad", do a disservice to yourself and the conversation. Treating every tax or regulation as being identical is dishonest at best. Thinking people are bad because they don't have the same political beliefs as you doesn't make for good discussion. |
1. It pretty much is banned, they are so strict with gun laws it is ridiculous. You will have to go through so many hoops just to obtain a gun legally to defend your family from corrupt people. However, it didn't work too well now, did it?
2. Again, every city sees growth and decline due to market shifts. However, Democrats had control of Detroit for 50 years and made it worse. I mean Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed to hell and it looks a lot better than Detroit despite Japan having a rough time economically. Our Democrats/Liberals have screwed up badly.
3. Those cities are doing well for a liberal city, but still not doing well overall I'm afraid. Sorry, that I expect a lot more from these cities, but liberals will settle for less. That is why they like participation trophies.
No, it isn't a complicated issue. When Trump and Republican congress lifted regulations on jobs and lower taxes, the unemployment rate went down and the economy is now doing pretty well. In fact, unemployment been at the lowest since I was born. Companies want to create jobs, but we put up way too many barriers.
