I Went To The Worst Ghettos In The United States: Part Two

- Parts of America are falling apart literally before our eyes.
Now I’ve seen a lot of this country. I go out of my way to see bad things because that’s what you RUclips people want. And a lot of the rundown cities I’ve seen are places most people don’t want to go into.
You can call em ghettos if you want, although that word might be a little strong. But every place I’m going to show you has large parts of town that are poor, dangerous and rundown. Many have been all but abandoned.
I did a previous video on this, but I’ve been to a lot more places now.
I think it’s important for us to see what’s happening to our communities. If we don’t know about these tragedies, how do we fix em? And for a lot of us, looking at this puts our own lives into perspective.
As we drive through these areas, you'll notice many of the streets are empty. Sometimes the scariest movies are when you don't see the monster at all.

“They call it The American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it” - George Carlin
Abso-FUCKIN-lutely!!
He did pretty good!
Could be eating mud cookies in Zimbabwe
Don’t get woke 😂
In areas like this introduce Islam and Islamic law with it. It works.
Sad how America intervenes in other countries and the world at large doesn’t know that this exists in America
Yes One ✊of many best comments✔️here Yet they continue to sell huge dreams to these immigrants that come honestly a few n the illegals that keep pouring into THESE United States of America 💯💯
The world is creating this "America".
@@antonius_006 No, the politicians are "creating this America".
Of course the world knows, it's shown all over the world as Democracy in decline
Im jamaican, we have our ghettos in the cities, but living in the countryside in our small homes we are quite comfortable. Most of us are doing subsistence farming and living a healthy lifestyle with our lush greenery. Its not just about the almighty dollar and fast cars. Our warm sunshine, beautiful beaches and nature in general, makes us happy.
❤ AMEN and Not in Debt with the Banks or Uncle Sam.
Yes, I. Jamaica is beautiful.
Yeah. No homeless people on the street of Jamaica
The majority of poor people are self-employed selling Thier farms products or buying products from other to go and sell in the big towns or cities. And not on welfare
@@debbielove6233 16:51
The reality is in a country like Jamaica where people are able to grow food nobody's starving there. I've had three trips to the Philippines in the past year and a half. Same thing nobody's starving to death from the Philippines. People can grow vegetables and fruit. But the reality is is 1/3 of the world lives in abject poverty.
I spent a summer working on the Hurricane Katrina recovery. I worked mostly in the New Orleans ninth ward. We demolished a lot of houses but I can safely say that most of them needed demolishing before Hurricane Katrina. I was very careful to get out of there before dark. And I ALWAYS had my little friend with me. Tucked down between the seats. And when I had to drive through Acres Home subdivision in Houston I would never stop at red lights at night. Carjacking was a sport there.
see, this is something we just don´t know here in Europe.
You must have a decent system of law enforcement. Some cities in the US are lacking in leadership and some mayors and some prosecutors have been known to restrict the enforcement of the law in some special cases. During a riot in Baltimore a mob was looting a shoe store. A bystander asked one of the policemen why they weren't doing anything and was told to ask the mayor. These cities are almost exclusively cities with Democrat leadership. Apparently we are still a work in progress. @@peterkoller3761
Because our government wants to sell every other country that we are better than any other when it's a 3rd world country spray painted in gold.@@peterkoller3761
I just explained the ghettos in New Orleans. Much worse than this area!
If you traveled to help devastated communities, you are 99% likely to be a white male. For some reason white males always feel like they need to be saviors to the brown people. Guaranteed, you also believe in that delusional Middle East religion.
I showed my friends from Colombia a picture of Detroit and they said "what a waste of beautiful homes. It's like cooking a huge delicious meal and letting it rot."
Keep Detroit out of ur mouth. We're coming back.
@@Raven-ug8uw They think it's beautiful. They just think us Americans are wasteful for letting beautiful homes decay like that.
good analogy lol
Detroit is quietly making a comeback...still got a lot of grimy areas but it's trying....
The world has seen great empires; Ancient Greek, the Roman empire, British empire, and one thing caused the collapse of all these empires, huge Armies. The desire to maintain dominance is what has brought about the collapse of these great empires, and America has followed the same path. Armies do not build economies, they drain economies, what you bare witness to is the beginning of the end, and just as the British did in the past, a few years from now Americans will realize that the one thing they take such great pride in, is the thing that has brought about the collapse of their beloved nation.
@@chachi1843 No, we won't. 😂
I'm from East Cleveland the neighborhood has went down significantly since the 80s. Hard to believe it was once where Rockefeller house once was. It's so sad how much my neighborhood has went down crooked police and politicians and drugs 😢
East Cleveland is gone now… What happened? It was interesting in the ‘90s.
This is a masterpiece of showing the living conditions of people who are neglected by the rich & powerful persons who are making the wrong decisions.
They are living this way because they choose to. No one is forcing them to. The only thing making it harder to get out are socialist policies, the drug war, and single parenthood.
I drove a truck 24 years. One of the most expensive toll roads and one of the worst maintained is the Pennsylvania Turnpike . The high tolls are supposed to go toward keeping the toll road well repaired. When I mentioned this to a local he said "Look at the streets where the politicians live. That's where the toll $$ goes. They're in perfect condition" so the corruption is not new
Think that's where part of the capitalism blame comes from. Rich people usually do very well with capitalism and they don't get that wealthy without being a shitty person. A shitty person is the greedy capitalist that doesn't give a shit about the people making them the money as they'll just abandon them when the profits dry up. They made their money, bought their legislators, and will only do what is best for them to keep their wealth going. These type of people will not be satisfied with $1 billion in profits per year if they can pack up shop and double or triple that profit in some other country they can shit all over and abandon. This is basically what capitalism leads to in the end and that perhaps maybe a little bit of capitalism, little bit of socialism, little bit of whatever-else-ism should be considered because clearly what we have only works if you're the one on top.
Mitch McConnell I object for rhe last 40 years Ragan policy's ie lest celebrate the very wealthy. SHUT UP POOR PEOPLE AND PAY YOUR TAXES
Even the rich aren't immune anymore. La Jolla, a wealthy neighborhood that basically supports the rest of San Diego through high property taxes, has horrible streets. It's funny to see the mansions there fronting on roads that have potholes and scarring from repeated patch-up jobs.
I thought traveling to Chicago years back was so much paying for the numerous tolls at every exits .
Look at John Fedderwomans home town..its a dump!
Wow, Nick, you said something really deep - "A lot of people who grew up poor thought they were destined for great things; they thought the world loved them, but the world loves itself."
I learnt from an early age you have only yourself to rely on. Others may help but if you keep that attitude then you will be ok
Anybody who thinks the world loves them is a blind fool, poor or rich.
The problem is people think they are destined to be millionaires and vote for millionaire-favouring policies.
And then act surprised when they get fucked over.
PUBLIC APATHY. The situation in US is horrific. Theres folks going around pointing cameras at semi derelict cities and towns all over the place. Theres people living there in total poverty. One of them inhabited by females on their own. Whole streets with empty shops, gas stations and diners and wharehouses all starting to collapse. How come that nation paid people to walk about on a moon. Why are they staring into space trying to find 'life' when they cant even manage what they have. Do you think any distant civilisation would tolerate the people here// Why are you assuming they would be like you. Foir instabncxer whats all this about Police killing a 1000 people a yr. They dont seem to do that to the corrupt. In UK we are experiencing Police attacks too who are sent on behalf of religion. They told us that the evidence we gathered during 12 yrs traipse round vCent London accompanied by victims cannot be revealed to public. They also told us that theres no such thing as 'Natural Talent'. theres only what your teacher teaches. That attitude killed millions US Nativ Americans and Germany did same to tribes in Africa. This is the 3rd attaxck we have experienced after doing state of the art work on so called incurable clients sent to us by Health system. They had recd anything up to 22 yrs 'treatment' They needed six hours. One of them would have died that nite had we not broken in to get to her. We wewre then told to stop the work which was threatening establ jobs so around 12-15 000 died and the issues covered up by Local Govt. Police. HM Coroners. HM Courts. HM Psychiatry Charities. Press. 17 universities who are in league with Int drug firms. f-book and Twitter destroyed all our mails and all websites also disappeared. We have no access to Parliament or Law or Health or Welfare. We are woriied anbout dying cos this place coulds be ransacked by Police and the public would do nothing. We are a Jewish Family who came to UK to escape the very activities going on in UK. We came here with two suitcases and 80 yrs old granma. we were washing up dishes in hotel and taking scraps food home. no one offered any help. We left behind jobs in the Law System. Now lets think about this site. People are goin around filming other pewoples misery so what the persons criteria. Why dont they go raise hell at the aeras Political representative for those areas. Why dont they stop and knock at all the doors to see if the folks need food por help with property maintenance. Why are peopole sitting watching all this and doing nothing. Is it becauase the victims aree not 'relatives' If so you need waking up. No change in 10.000 yrs. Stop the deception. 5000 comments have not changed anything.The UK and Europe are also horrific. The EEC has told us that nothing can be done about corruption or the attacks on us. Maybe wre should try to get out of here urgent before we end up dead. The natives that the US killed knew how to survive. You dont. You killed most them wheres the guilt we dont see any.
TO KNOW YOURSELF IS TO LOVE YOURSELF...LIFE IS ABOUT CHOICES ONE MAKES IF ONE COMES FROM A HOME OF POVERTY DOES IT MEAN YOU ARE POVERTY START EXCEPTING THE IMPORTANCE OF YOU IS YOU
I just got back from Japan and the difference between that country and the US is night and day. We truly are a third world country in disguise.
I hope. You destroyed many countries, hopefully your day is coming.
Please show this to people in Japan
@@bayersbluebayoubioweapon8477 No way, its embarrassing.
But did you try to find the worse slums in Japan? Probably not
@@Tidalstream Yes, i did actually. Homeless people there actually pick up after themselves, and arent cracked out like the ones here in US. Even homeless out there hold some sort of standards when it comes to cleanliness.
I just got back from remote Tibet.
All new train lines, airports, luxury cars everywhere.
I saw People selling fruit and vegetables by the side of the road - much of which was picked from the surrounding hillsides - using their smart phones for payment. They did not require permits of any kind.
They made a good living and their houses were provided by the government.
Didn’t see any graffiti or homeless people.
Or anyone stressed about their mortgage.
Life there is beautiful.
Good for those folks.-!!!🤗. Thanks for sharing-!!!😉.
I currently reside in Australia, but not originally from. In all my years of traveling in different parts of the world, I am so shocked to see so much of America is so dilapidated. I expected to see things when I was in India and Pakistan but not in America.
The United States is basically a third world country now.
Yeah, but their media only show the worst conditions in none European country
Look at the way that they make out .that haiti is a shit hole every where is dangerous . But because of a African female RUclipsr. [AFRICAN TIGRESS]
That is there show us that
Most of country is safer than many places in America and even cleaner
The trouble in haiti is only confined to a small area of the city.
Our country is literally crumbling. I am embarrassed by our country's state. It's only going to get worse. Sadly.
15.4.23 To- FAITH IN ME SP:EAKS. You are contradicting your self. we are already tackling the issues that you list. Thats why we are being attacked byu Police and HM Court system threatened to kill us. On top of that the US Embvassy has offered violence. Our questioon to you is this- Wheres The Proof Of Your Efforts rather than dialogue or wishing.. Among the people sending Police here are the Religions.WAKE UP . This is sent to- faith is me speaks.Its not faith thats needed its action.Not referring to 'slavery' We mean crrptn.
Yes ma'am
You are absolutely correct. I feel sorry for my kids and the younger generation.
U.k is going the same way we always do things years behind America
Im from Argentina im visit Los Angeles in 97 and i have to say that i love Usa and in mi education and culture im grow with your culture your movies your music and i feel that its a big brother and dont understand whats goin on with your country its a decadence entires neighborhoods in total abandon maybe the people left the cities no works to do ? Id like someone gimmie an answer the Occidental world is a total disaster my country is in decadence and destruction too
@@Maginnifix No it's not.B.S.
Omg. Finally it’s been said out loud: “ sending tons and tons of our money to other countries when we need it here the most.”
Money isn't going to help these neighborhoods. These people just don't have the same characteristics as other races. It's a biological thing
You are right!
Look like Haiti in the making.
@@cody4916 it’s not a biological thing it’s a education and cultural problem. Black people were pushed to ghettos during segregation. The people grew up in job lacking,poverty stricken,drugs pumped by the government and they had no desire to further their education or aim for higher jobs because they weren’t accepted in higher society and over time this became a cycle of violence and poverty. It’s not a black people problem there’s not a special gene that makes them violent it’s just that majority of them are born into cycles in ghettos and only few can break that cycle. The ghettos are dangerous because they’re poor not because they’re black.
You do realise foreign aid comes with strings attached? It's rarely, if ever, just "free money" given to others. Comon, don't be naïve.
This kind of video is very important, because it shows a dimension of the United States that may not be well-known to both outsiders and to Americans, themselves. One thing that strikes me is the spatial structure of poverty of cities in the United States. Unlike in many developing world cities, where poverty is often characterized by density and crowding, and in fact, a high level of activity (including economic activitiy, such as selling something), in the United States urban poverty is characterized by low density and very low levels of (especially economic) activity. There is a huge wealth of underutlized space and structures that could seemingly be renovated and used. The problem is not one of lack of wealth in the country, obviously. The problem is a society that is sick (in these slum areas I imagine that there are extreme levels of social problems). I can imagine some people in developing world countries thinking that the areas shown don't look so horrible...there's even plenty of space to grow food! The problem is a "sick" population with no easy way out.
Clear signs of social decay.
I grew up in East Oakland and it wasn't bad when I was a kid, I'm now 60. We lived in the ghetto but my mother always told us that the ghetto was outside of her door and we were not allowed to possess a "ghetto" mentality. I attended the best high school in the ghetto but it was a private school, Bishop O'Dowd, at ten we attended the largest church, Allen Temple. I believe we turned out well because of all of the above AND because my parents were highly educated and believe in the power of prayer. NOW, you couldn't pay me to enter the city limits! I moved out of Oakland to the new city of Antioch which was great for 20 years but now that city is not safe. The same people from Oakland, San Francisco, Richmond, etc., have moved there and many have brought inner city problems with them. Add that to a corrupt police department and poor urban planning and I believe it is placing us on the prescipise of history repeating itself. I believe all cities must evolve with the times.
Yes. I'm in my 50's; my husband's family is from that area. They left as soon as they could up North, squashing 3 small boys into a small place just for a better city environment. It's sad to see what's happened since.
Boy!!! I wished I've met your mama. Born and raised in San Francisco TPS by Hayward Park and OC (out of control) projects
socialism only works in whites ONLY countries
Your story is a hard one MsSquirrel. Sad but good.
Hi
In our youth, (I'm from Europe and 46 years old) The United States were like the dreamland. Our favorite music, fashion, movies etc. all from the US. Nowdays I don't even want to go on a vacation there. So sad too see :(
If you go on holiday you won't visit these places, There are some fantastic areas, try New England.
Don't live in a very quiet place, somebody will come to rob you.
@andrewh5457 They are talking about traveling to Los Angeles, New York and Chicago which are shitholes. Inam from Chicago and a Spanish person told me that if they knew that Chicago was a shithole then they wouldn't have come here. I have been to Europe and it isn't that bad compared to the United States.
You can blame LBJ.
Same for me I have no desire anymore to visit the country. In my youth in the 70s and 80s I always met Americans on a Go Europe trip. Now a days I seldom meet people from overseas.
I use to think about my grandmothers younger brother who emigrated in early 1900. What happened to my fathers cousins and their children? Are they also homeless living in a tent somewhere?
We have way more than a community left behind... We have an entire civilization that is getting left behind... These despicable levels of neglect are completely intentional.
THANK YOU!!!
yes ! unfortunate but true, so m any people are proud of being ghetto, or ''hood'' instead of bettering themselves and acting and treating others with courtesy and respect.
Well, you need to realize we don't have the money to fix this problem...because it was sent to Ukraine.
Our government displays its disdain for its citizens literally every week...if not every day.
Trump wanted to make america first and fix issues. Yall did this to yourself. Just as canada did voting justin castro. North america will crumble unless get more trumps in power to fix it.
But we must defend Ukraine at all costs
I watch your videos from an educational standpoint and to better understand and see what is going on through out our entire country. I encourage others to watch for the same reason.
Nick, I think it’s time for you to show us some Beautiful Places now. You deserve a Good Vacation!!!👍💞
"Every one of these houses were someones dream" I don't think many people realize that nowadays or maybe the dream is gone? Another great one Nick!
The American Dream- You have to be asleep to believe it!! We have destroyed working wages in AMERICA- and until we restore working poor to something about survival it will continue.
When you're married to a crack pipe this is what happens.
When you have no hope you depend on miracles

what strucks me is that, no matter how bad the neighbourhood looks, almost all cars seem to be either new or in a very good shape. I suppose it's a US paradox.
actually noticed that too & was going to comment.. beat me to it. bet there is no or scant insurance
Don't be fooled.... that's the neighbourhood dealer! His business is thriving!
You don't need good credit for a car loan.
I noticed this also..
This video makes me appreciate what I have. Drugs will never make me homeless but being on disability will
You bring up a lot of valid points. Excellent, sad, information. Good job.
I am born and raised in California where housing skyrockets every year. It's to the point where you can't afford a tiny one bedroom house. It's painful to see these beautiful big houses abandoned and treated so worthlessly. Such houses would cost over 2 million dollars out here.
history repeating itself, one day Silicon Valley could turn to ghetto after all tech boom is gone…
@@noodle-noodles I wonder what that will look like. We will all probably be plugged into the damn matrix by then lol scary.
The houses in California cost that much because you can get a job there. All the jobs left these places.
plus who tf wanna live in a worthless ghetto. that’s all it is and all it ever will be
@@308pof I wish that where true. A lot of towns in California only offer lower paying jobs. San Luis Obispo is a great example. It's one of the most expensive small metropolitan areas in the country, yet most of the jobs are hospitality and retail. There's people who live there where a household of two holds 4-6 jobs just to keep a roof over their heads. A lot of the housing was bought up by rich people from the bay area or Los Angeles and are used as vacation rentals or just sit empty for when they decide to have their own vacation, and that's dwindled the housing supply. SLO isn't the only place this is happening, either. Mendocino is seeing it, Tahoe is seeing it, Truckee, the little towns in the gold country, and along the coast. Their economy is based almost wholely on tourism to save them, but now it's become so excessive that it's starting to cause a decline because there is little to housing and what housing is left is so expensive that it's too expensive for the people who work in the industry that keeps those places afloat. It's absolutely insane.
Full blooded Native American here 💯 and you are absolutely Right about us. Drugs & Alcohol is a big part of our lives. We do need jobs, counseling & better communities. Sad.

WOW!!! BRO YOUR VIDEO'S AND JOURNALISM ON THESE TOWNS AND THE APPEARANCE OF WHAT THEY HAVE BECOME AND THEN YOU SHOWN WHAT THEY USE TO LOOK LIKE VERY COOL STUFF ENJOYED ALL OF IT WOW!!!
I’m not even from the US and watching this depressed me.
Check out some of the native villages in Alaska. Drug addiction and alcoholism is just the norm. And don't even ask how somebody is related to somebody else, you just don't want to know. Let's just say that the family trees don't have many branches. They've lived that way for so long that it's just normal to them. They die young. The villages are literally dying. Very very sad.
Would be helpful to name some of them so we could look them up.
@@seanbryan1739 Google is your friend
Sound like most of the Indian reservations.
I find it weird the 2 groups most affected are African Americans and Native Americans but i somehow think this is no coincidence.
So the whole Midwest and Alaska is just one big Alabama? 🤔
What a great opportunity to start vocational training in high schools. Let the kids learn how to renovate the rundown houses, sell them to the poor for a reasonable price if they put in some sweat equity in order to buy it. The kids learn a skill that will lead to a good job and people get to own a house of their own. Its a fact that if you own something you take much better care of it than if you are renting.
Very well put, Sir.
The trades have been de-emphasized and ignored in schools for a long time, to our detriment.
It's to big of risk . To many lawsuits . People say o my jobny stepped on a nail and sue
Problem : the poor don't have any money.
Who pays for the kids training and construction equipment/materials? What's a reasonable price for the poor?
I'd be thinking more on the lines of urban farming .
Interesting and vary informative video 👍,great job brother!
We don’t look at the beauty of the sky when it is clear. But our heads turn up when we see the clouds overhead. Sam is true with healthy and dirty neighbourhoods.. Thanks for showing around.
I grew up with a bad attitude, getting in trouble, & didn't finish high school. And honestly, the only thing that made me change was seeing things like this. I didn't want to end up like the people/in the places in these videos. Appreciate the video's, Nick!
Me too man grew up poor now ok.
The custom wheels on that Ford crown Victoria are worth more than the whole shithood. The narrator is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!
thats because USA is a Re-publc of the Holy Roman Empire
Religion is all satanic
The Catholic Church is disgusting
Good luck with that. I wish you well.
I don't know how you made it not finishing high school when I finished high school and I'm not even close in making it.
It's progressively gotten worse since the 1960's when businesses started relocating their factories overseas. The dollar being taken off the gold standard didn't help either with an ounce of gold being under 80 bucks then. Part of me wishes I was alive then to buy over a pound of it then.
🎯🎯🎯 Bingo! And Nafta didn’t help. When jobs leave. The city decays.

Absolutely brilliant documentary!
As a resident in UK I watched this video because I seriously can't believe the poverty in the USA. It's beyond shocking. We have homeless people in our cities who sleep on the streets but nothing like what I have seen in America. I am absolutely staggered at some of the images. Unbelievable.

Then populism, ruined it all, lazy people living from the taxes of the workers, then more lazy people needed more taxes and so forth. Now poverty reached 50% and taxes are still not enough.

The word Ghetto gets used a lot but that word refers to something specific, the word we should be using is economic slums.
I grew up in one in a poor part of North Carolina. If you're not already wealthy, you had ZERO chance of becoming wealthy and you could barely make enough to live, much less save or plan to get out. I had to join the Coast Guard, as there was NO money for me to go to trade school or college. People born in this situations are often depressed, demoralized and forgotten. No one cares. Living pay check to pay check, if you get sick or ANYTHING happens, the crunch comes hard and fast...you're one vehicle repair away from being homeless at any time.

A few weeks later be nothing left. Use bull dozers to push the remains into new hills then cover in fresh soil.

Very nice interview during this video. One other thing that people don’t understand is that the tech industry is really altering the shape and function of not just major American cities, but suburbs as well. Take shopping malls for example. A lot of the shopping malls have disappeared lately the Internet is killing the shopping mall just like video killed the radio star. Although the American city experience is definitely quite different from other countries that’s for sure. Just look at Australia for example you could definitely say that shopping there is like an 80s American flashback with busy malls and Kmart thriving.
That East Cleveland part is probably the most insane in this whole video. The forest overgrowth on / in / around the buildings looks like something out of a Hollywood apocalypse movie.
They should just leave it like that and turn it into a museum..It looked very depressing and unique at the same time ..
Just my opinion but I find it odd that people find the natural world such as tree over growth and ivy the most disturbing versus piles of garbage, graffiti and people looking like zombies on fentanyl. I'll take the forest any day. Vicki

Both of my parents, they grew up in Texas during the depression. But to tell you the truth, it made them strong. As adults they made something of themselves. They moved to California got married and went to college. My father got a BA degree and has been an Income Tax Consultant for over 50 years. My mother was a part time saleswoman at a famous Department Store JC Penny's. I hope the kids who grow up in these conditions will make something of themselves when they become Adults. May God Bless!!!

@@sunnyandthechloaccording to where they go. Yes. At first you research cost of living and community college prices within the vici ity of those low cost areas. Find one. My town is one.
Then you, if you can, live with parent while working either at a job or just doing things for people for cash. Until you save up enough money.
Then you get a job interview at a place of employment in the area you chose. Pack bags, go to interview. Use what money you saved to get an apt, mine is 400$ a month.
Work for a few months, go to food banks, buy cheap. Then enlist in community college, the poorer you are the more grant money you get. I was able to go for free, so will these kids.
Work, go to college. Hard few years. Stressful. But worth it. Once you get your two yr degree you get work in your field which usually boosts your incone and gives you experience. Get your bachelors, either online or slowly over the years.

Things were better back then especially if you have social capital. Poor folks tend to live around other poor folks...and college cost way more than it did twenty years ago and schools in poor areas tend to be grossly underfunded, therefore that means that even the smartest and most ambitious kid from undeserved areas tend to fall behind academically so once they get to college, they will have to take remedial level math and science, which means more time in school along with extra student loans to take out which leads to more dept and more poverty. Generational Poverty is not easy to escape.

NO one with a decent life sees that around here. They stay in their suburbs

One interesting historic note early on when a town was formed out on the American frontier it would slowly grow and flourish, but if it was missed by the railroad, then it would quickly die and become a ghost town and erased from existence. Later on in the mid 20th century, when the freeway were starting to be built if your town wasn’t on the major freeway, just weather and slowly decay and be near death and not be thriving unless it was close to a major city where it could be become part of suburbia. Now, downtown in major cities are really struggling since the pandemic because more and more people have discovered that they can work from home and don’t have to commute to these large office buildings rendering a lot of office space obsolete and not needed. In downtown St. Paul, Minnesota for example, many of the big office buildings downtown are only half occupied because many people can work from home instead.
I noticed you had a city in IOWA. OMG. As a native Baltimorean, that makes me feel better about my own ghetto!
I live in Johannesburg South Africa, and I am so utterly shocked at the degradation of so many parts of America with such dire poverty. However, when you compare these places to the "gawd awful slums of third-world capitals" (2:15 seconds) this is NOT the state of many capitals in Africa, I assure you.
I've lived and worked in many African countries and been through many capitals - Windhoek in Namibia, Nairobi in Kenya, Gaborone in Botswana, Accra in Ghana, Maseru in Lesotho, Mbabane in Eswatini (previously called Swaziland) and Khartoum in Sudan, and while Africa does have poverty, it is not the same type of poverty as reflected in these ghettos in America. America is a prosperous first-world country, to my understanding, which makes this video even more shocking to me.
We have some exceptionally fine and even affluent capitals in Africa. Granted, there are some areas within the capitals that may be more poverty-stricken and have some ghetto quality aspects to them, but they are mostly on the outskirts of the city, but some are also within the city limits too, like Kibera, which is the largest slum in Nairobi, and the largest urban slum in Africa.
But the rest of the capitals themselves would rival many cities in America in terms of comparable infrastructure, amenities, transport, policing, and commercial activity. Africa isn't all about "gawd awful slums".
America has a lot of wealth, with many state budgets being bigger than the entire GDP of some African countries, like, California. So why you have such terrible ghettos and poverty in so many places is beyond me. It's just so sad to see this in America, a country I used to admire.
I will say this though, the poverty in Africa is different to what I see in America.
In America, it is a Soul-destroying despair of drug addiction, absent fathers and mental health issues that are more prevalent, whereas, in Africa, it's about food and access to amenities, like clean drinking water in many cases. And while Africa does have extreme poverty in many places, there is still ambition and a desire to get out of the poverty cycle, and hope and striving for a better life. I sense, sadly, that in America this hope, and inclination is not there, their hope has died.
But thank you for an excellent expose of this tragedy, your guest had some very valid points, it was informative to listen to him.
Yup its not going to get better until we elect God fearin men and women
Poverty of soul in US
What you say is true. We need books on the best seller lists and movies by important directors.
There needs to be massive, in-your-face reporting on the real America and the real ppl living there.
It may take a long-time to get any improvement, but nonetheless, it needs to get started or America will be the "No Hope" capital of Earth.
Agree! What's even sadder, in my opinion, is the money we waste, for example, on enormous salaries for sports players and some entertainment figures. Absolute millions upon millions, while others starve or die due to poor/nonexistent health care. It's disturbing.
Finland is doing a great job supporting their homeless and addicted. There is a youtube video about it. The US needs to follow that same program which, for example, takes advantage of old and disused apartment buildings to create free or affordable housing.
The problem is these issues aren't pretty, or fun, or even of interest to most Americans (and our politicians) to bother finding solutions. We're a very self-centered culture, quite different from yours. Those of us (like you and I) who do care are, sadly, in the minority.
Thanks for your very informative comment!
8 of the top 10 counties in the US surround Washington DC now. You mentioned Capitols. Capitols is where all the stolen money goes. Places like you saw is where it came from until they were drained.
I love your guest speaker. I live in a rust belt city. The housing crisis made a ghost town of our streets. I often thought if the home owners that were left on mostly abandoned streets were offered better real estate in the more healthy parts of town. I hope someday you do stop and talk to people. I found the best gems in these places are the people. Go to the churches or schools and you will find out so much.
People can switch to something new to earn incomes - generate energy/electricty for large areas, grow food (like the tiny Netherlands), establish fish farms, produce generic medicines, provide lower- cost medical treatment and care, etc. because that's what's needed.
Some of those old houses and buildings you can see how absolutely beautiful they were. It's heartbreaking what lack of money, crime, poverty, low paying jobs, our mental health crisis, drug addiction etc has caused. 😭

I am always puzzled, white people don't want other races to travel to their countries but they went and filled up the American continent from North to South?
I recently had a background check at a job and when I had to call in because I was having trouble filling out form the call went to a call center in Indonesia even though it was my background check using my personal information here in USA, but this call went to Indonesia or India. I don’t know the person and people speaking had such thick accents. I could not understand them, and I couldn’t discern what type of accent it was, but that’s the problem we’re looking at in this country we can’t even have our own background check serviced in a call center in our own country.

During the interview, I noticed that you were talking about letting more people into the United States and that would help revitalize some of the cities. I’ve noticed firsthand working with migrates from Africa is that these people are hard-working no nonsense people who take their job seriously and know the value of a hard work. After all these people came from places where if you didn’t work, you didn’t eat or have a place to live. There was no social safety net for them at all.
