on shithole cities and why they're shitholes

Great quote about shithole cities (found here and edited for style):

We are fortunate indeed to have real-world results that we can look at for how well or how poorly governing philosophies and agendas work. America’s major cities have been dominated by the Democratic Party for decades, and the results are in.

All but 3 of America’s largest cities are run by Democratic mayors. The 3 largest cities—New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago—are losing population every year.

Several of the most violent cities in America, including Albuquerque, Memphis, Detroit, Chicago, and Washington, DC are run by Democrats.

States that are bleeding population every year due to high taxation, over-regulation, decaying cities, and failing public services—including New York, Connecticut, California, and others—are all run by Democrats.

States that have low to no income taxes, are right-to-work, and favor energy development do better economically than high-tax, forced-union, and energy-unfriendly states. According to the annual economic outlook rankings published by the American Legislative Exchange Council Center for State Fiscal Reform, in 2019 the bottom ten states were all run by Democrats and the top 10 states, except two, were run by Republicans.

Will this convince anyone on the left that there's a problem? No. Of course it won't. Because such is the nature of willful stupidity. Pathetic.
