"They moved all the unionized industry out of here a while back."
Which was primarily a conservative project, which the Democrats mostly went along with. The result was the utter destruction of lives and communities. Thanks to non-stop right-wing propaganda, conservative, hate radio, it was liberals, democrats, the "left" and unions who got the blame for the devastation they are living through. It's ironic, because it was unions who were primarily responsible for the relatively good lives they once had. The other irony is that the inner cities filled with the "other" that they hate so much have basically the same issues and problems they do, caused by the same conservative policies. The conservative movement had hoodwinked the working class of America and successfully deflected the blame. It's the greatest con in history and it's destroying the country and leading to a full autocratic state. Good luck everyone.
