In come the criminal migrants – out go the taxpayers – if you want your “woke”, DEI, Net Zero,15 minute “steenking” cities, you can keep your “woke”, DEI, Net Zero,15 minute, “steenking” cities
Governor Hochul has deployed the (armed?) National Guard to New York City to frisk everyone using the subway system, Note the “spin” or lack of it around a form of martial (military) law.
” Hochul is ordering a force of nearly 1,000 people, comprising 750 National Guard members, state police and transit officers, to conduct bag checks at some of the busiest stations.
The effort, Hochul said, is intended to "rid our subways of people who commit crimes and [to] protect all New Yorkers whether you're a commuter or a transit worker."
Nothing abut what used to be a major source of revenue for NYC – international tourists and out of state visitors.
We have seen the racial bigotry of the SDNY as it allows violent offenders “no bail” and pursues Trump’s victimless nan-crimes via corrupt DA’s and judges.
Perhaps it is unfair to point out that Detroit; s decline from a peak of 1.8 million I the 1950’s to just 0.6 million now – there are rich “burbs” and then there is this “suburb” portrayed in a 48-minute video (h/t Ranger71)
No sign of any National Guard there or the Feds tracking/geo-locating cell phones pf suspects or dawn raids on crack houses with SWAT teams of dozens cooking for “secrets”.
Out of interest, from here:
State seeks volunteers to sponsor more refugees as numbers increase (detroitnews.com)
“In December, state officials projected a 40% increase in refugees coming to Michigan in 2024 — as many as 1,100 more people than last year — and that number doesn't include those who will come to Michigan non-traditionally after seeking political asylum at a United States port or border.”
If 1,100 people is a 40% increase that means, there were only785 “refugees” last year! That looks like a very low number against the millions entering every year. Maybe there will be 100,000 seeking political asylum!
You have to feel sorry for the god people of Detroit who have been turned into victims from living I proximity to the scum of the earth. Imagine how often those in the richest suburb with income I 6 figures (around 9,000 odd) walk two blocks to an area with income of less than 30,000 a year, close and inside ganglands.
The NYC mayor whines about a hundred thousand criminal migrants, slashes services to fund them and then imposes a “meat free” diet on all city employees and schools. We need a new term #2why don’t you wake off”.
Which brings us to the main topic. From an article in this great website
It describes the inevitable consequence of the grift, incompetence and the racist bigotry that dominates everything that the Democratic Party has become like this:
“As we have noted regularly in past issues of this newsletter, the deliberate refusal to maintain law and order in the nation’s major cities has generated a hastening downward spiral of living conditions.
Bad policies create bad outcomes, productive people leave, government increases taxes, more people leave, government runs shortfalls and cuts services, more people leave, and the process continues.”
The article focuses on the mass exodus of people from Democratic Party led cities that have created entire “victim cities” (not sanctuary cities) with high energy, rents and living costs because of the incompetence and grift of public officials, inefficient and overly bureaucratic administrations.
The result? If you want your “woke”, DEI, Net Zero,15 minute, “steenking” cities, you ca keep your “woke”, DEI, Net Zero,15 minute, “steenking” cities.
Check out migration patterns – which should indicate 2rom” for criminal migrants.
Note, in April 2021, there are only NINE US cities with a population of more than a million:
List of United States cities by population: Data, Map and Rank - knoema.com
“Besides New York there are 8 US cities which population exceed 1 million persons: Los Angeles (CA), Chicago (IL), Houston (TX), Philadelphia (PA), Phoenix (AZ), San Antonio (TX), San Diego (CA) and Dallas (TX).”
Back to the Heartland Institute article:
“The new metro area population estimates from the Census Bureau confirm this. The Committee to Unleash Prosperity (CTUP) reports,
Major metropolitan areas (over 1,000,000 population) lost 2 million net domestic migrants to other parts of the nation in just three years (2021-2023). This contrasts sharply with the early 2010s (2011-2013) when major metros gained 352,000 net domestic migrants and the balance of the nation lost 352,000.”
Note Phoenix is the exception.
Those nine cities lost 2 million taxpayers in three years.
How many criminal migrants sucking on the welfare teat have they taken in?
If we assume the 2 million leaving paid an average of 25,000 bucks per capita and the “replacements” cost just 25,000 bucks a year (my guess is the total of direct ad indirect costs is closer to 100,000 each) – there 100 has been a swing of 50,000 bucks times two million I the finances of these cities. 50,000 times 2 million = 100 billion dollars A YEAR.
Now imagine of residents of those cities had seen the benefit of 100 billion dollars a year. New roads, bridges, airports, police, better access to better health and education – and so o and so forth.
This is what the package inserts in “woke” brains reads– “This space intentionally left blank or concealed on grounds of the Fifth”.
No-one will ask how much was spent by these cities over the period of the scamdemic.
“The three largest net domestic migration suburban county gains were in Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Philadelphia.
CTUP provides a chart showing that this outmigration is not, however, just a matter of people in big cities moving to the nearby suburbs. Instead, people are even fleeing the suburban counties in older large metropolitan areas:”
Lots more in the lengthy article.
What is already happening is a rapid increase in debt – other at the Federal level, where every State pays for the folly of the “woke” or at the State or city level.
Losses in revenues ad increase in costs for major cities will provide similar revenue boosts for those cities and States receiving the legal migrants.
I wonder what the electoral significance is of this legal migration…
Lastly, here’s a couple of quotes from Winston Churchill:
“The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of Socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.” —House of Commons, 22 October 1945.
“Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.” —Perth, Scotland, 28 May 1948, in Churchill, Europe Unite: Speeches 1947 & 1948 (London: Cassell, 1950), 347”.
Some people prefer to live as victims in a world of excited misery – there… don’t.
Onwards!!
