If you are teaching them that the New Deal did kick-start the economy, then they are being taught wrong.
I'm not teaching that.  Can you move off of me and just keep it to the general here?

But the areas WON'T improve while the same population is there.  The evidence is that they haven't improved.
Areas don't get gentrified merely by someone coming in and raising rents and mortgages.  The rising rents and mortgages are the results, not the causes.
Ehhh.....Im living this reality right now.  New ownership - raises the rent a little.  Repaves the parking areas - raises the rent a little.  Slaps a new paint scheme on the buildings - raises the rent a little.

Gradually the riff-raff leave, as the cost of living there rises continually and people with better credit move in.  The costs have to go up to make room for the new, paler people to move in.

Combine that with an unused, crappy property being transformed into something desirable, and POOF - your gentrification is well underway!  After all, those people with better credit will spend more money at the desirable property nearby.

I don't know why people keep inventing words I never said.  FFS.

People around the world are no better, smarter, wiser, or more honorable than we Americans are.  They're simply less delusional about themselves.
When Badge (?) posted something about a common sort of delusional thinking, you said it equaled "Americans."  I didn't invent that.

If you're going to make snarky comments, then you have to live with pointed responses.

No way am I looking all those up again.

Feel free to Google them though.  You won't see USA on top no matter the source.  (except incarceration rate...)




My source, who would be me, says the USA is at the top. I've been to a lot of countries, for extended stays. There is no better than this one.



Of course, I'm moving soon to my little corner of SW Florida, and I will hide out there until this country is no longer livable for people like me. Hopefully the engineering lab at the local college retains my name, even though it's a white guy name. 

Hopefully.

Then I'll either move to the Bahamas, Bermuda, Sicily, Germany or the Netherlands. They like us in those places, a lot. I could fit in just fine in any of them.

If Sicily, I'd also have a place in Germany, for healthcare purposes. I've become accustomed to fantastic healthcare.

I was wonderfully, blissfully happy, camping for a week in a state park in Texico.

I'll be back there one week from yesterday, for another full week.  Freaking HEAVEN.

Until then, though, I got a lot of problems with you people.  And now you're gonna hear about it!

People around the world are no better, smarter, wiser, or more honorable than we Americans are.  They're simply less delusional about themselves.
I agree with the first part, not the part about being delusional.

I don't believe there is any singular American trait that can be applied specifically to Americans.  We generally have customs which are unusual to unique of course, but so do other countries.  As for being less delusional, I would strongly disagree.
