      Think how the cities would look if we had the right kind of education... a Wall Street level business education. Buy for a nickle, sell for a dime, minimize the overhead to 3 cents...the 2 cents left over representing a 40% pre-tax return on the investment of the original nickel...increase the velocity, fast turnover...then you could afford to buy property and dress it up and charge rent for it, or just put it on the market for sale. The property wouldn't sit idle long enough to rot. We'd run out of properties and have to expand...invade other neighborhoods economically like they do in Israel.

    Homewood neighborhood on the east side of Pittsburgh. As you can tell by the size of some of the houses, this was once a very affluent area. Now it is extremely impoverished and one of the most violent sections of the city. Not as bad as it was in the 90’s though

    • @frank-xp6pj
      @frank-xp6pj Před 5 lety +8

      nothing is close to the hoods of the 90's.....cant even compare the two.....crime today in all cities is almost nonexistent compared to the 90's, crime will never be completely stopped BUT compared to the 90's it's down so low that it's safe despite how some areas look, in the 80's & 90's you could not walk or drive thru certain neighborhoods if you were not from there.

      @@elvagabundoilegal2868 It's funny, I lived in Massachusetts for a long time and i never saw that. Everyone parked near the curb. In Europe, people will park any place where they can find as long as they don't block the entire road. In a narrow street, they park on both sides where two cars in opposite directions can't pass through. It's extremely annoying and inconvenient.

    Pittsburgh was once a great looking city and now the blighted neighborhoods, garbage and abandoned houses that need torn down are a fixture in these hoods. The people that are responsible for doing something about this doesn't care, they want afro americans to live in poverty while they build the parts of the city to make people from out of town move here, but they don't see the real Pittsburgh until they live here for a while or something bad happens to them. Pittsburgh was always a beautiful city, when they took away the projects, and people were spread all over they didn't foresee people moving away and giving up their businesses and their homes to leave or relocate leaving the used to be prominent neighborhoods to be neglected so that crime and poverty would prevail. Pittsburgh, do better!
