tinood ba kaha ning ahong na basa mahitungod sa vallejo
Much of America is like Detroit. America is rotting from California to West Virginia to Baltimore. It’s the same song across the United States. High unemployment, falling rent and or house prices, massive police lay-offs, giant spikes in crime accompanied by a rising cost of living and fewer job opportunities. Vallejo and Oakland, California are very much like Detroit. Vallejo ranked as the ninth most miserable city in America according to Forbes. Oakland and Vallejo have laid off nearly half of their police forces. You can get an apartment in Vallejo or Oakland for $200-600 a month although the median monthly rent in California is well over a thousand dollars with Bay Area rent being generally higher. There is a reason why rent is so comparably dirt cheap in those cities. San Francisco-Oakland-Vallejo collectively make up the car-theft capital of the United States. Northern CA cities like Oakland, Richmond and Stockton are regulars on the top ten most dangerous cities in America list. Baltimore, MD is also very much like Detroit with its thousands of abandoned rowhomes, high concentration of Black poverty, drugs and violence. Camden, NJ, East St. Louis, Gary Indiana are all no different from the D. Even large sections of wealthy world class cities like DC, NYC and San Francisco are impoverished quasi-third world hellholes. Southeast DC has the highest unemployment rate of anywhere in America despite the fact that DC is the richest city and metro in America. NYC has the widest income inequality gap of any metro area. Massive swaths of NYC are dangerous towering project buildings packed with working poor minorities. SF is home to some of the most sub-standard public housing in America in neighborhoods like Hunter’s Point, Sunnydale and Potrero Hill. America has been rotting from the core since at least the 70′s.
Sadly, this is just the beginning.
As the economic decline of this nation accelerates, people are going to become much more desperate.
And desperate people do desperate things.
So where do all of you think America is headed? Please feel free to post a comment with your opinion below….
Don't you worry folks California is the riches State and it can support all Californians when it comes to bread and butter. Our farms is as big and wide as the Philippine sea. Never will any Californians be starved. All the negatives you read about this States are nothing but a hoax. In other words only the fools are in poverty. Employment now is pretty much rising as compared years ago.
You mentioned about Vallejo, Ca. yes, Vallejo City had been in bankruptcy maybe 5 years ago and until now due to the closure of the naval shipyard and housing meltdown. But to the filipinos who live there they are all okey because we know how to adjust our belt.
For Stockton it has been considered the most dangerous city in the world as to its criminality in such a very small land area where it becomes a haven to criminals and the olden cowboys of the big Valley.
But it is rich in farming and this is where the filipinos thrive ever since the sacadas. There is nothing to worry this is still America and still considered the riches nation in the whole world. Come to America and thine the american dream filled with milk and honey. We ate 5 times a day.
I am inviting all Boholanos to come to America and enjoy life's best. Clearly America is as peaceful as any moslim countries. American citizens are alwyas enjoying the art of sports from basketball, tennis, bowling, golf, volleyball, soccer, football and you named it.
