White flight? Suburbs lose young whites to cities

Massive budget cuts in public transportation (coupled with breakdowns in negotiations between executives and unions of drivers) make this more and more common.

This is what a lot of people are dealing with now. I live close to a subway stop that takes me to my office in about 30 minutes, so I'm not too dependent on the bus, but a lot of people in my neighborhood are.

I agree. And, it's not just that point specifically. When you choose where you want to live, you base it on a lot of things: school systems (if you have kids), convenience, level of urban/suburban/rural, etc., safety of the neighborhood, all kinds of things! The problem is, a lot of things change and sometimes your dream home/neighborhood became something totally different but you're stuck there.

The CTA cut a handful of bus routes a few months ago, and are putting fewer trains on the tracks (causing crowded buses and trains that remind me of that video from Japan and some pretty significant delays, depending on the time of day). I think a lot of the bus routes were express buses, but some were not. Kindof a bummer, really.

Are you talking about the subways packed so full of people that they have attendants who have paddles used to shove extra people in? We witnessed this on my birthday trip to Tokyo in October. Hilarious! My favorite part was watching a train pull up with people packed so tight that their faces were smashed against the side of the windows. They actually have train cars reserved for women so they don't have men copping a feel while they're shoved in so tight!

That would be it. It's certainly not that bad but there are definitely times when you don't need to hold on to anything in order to stay upright.

Whites + whites = good neighborhoods, good schools and low crime.
Whites + asians = good neighborhoods, good schools and low crime.
Whites + jews = good neighborhoods, good schools and low crime.
Whites + blacks = bad neighborhoods, lousy schools and high crime.
Blacks + blacks = ghetto

Where do the spics like myself fit in I wonder?

I wanted to know what in the world this has to do with Juggalos, but to be honest, I'm glad to know that madmax is one.

I'm now picturing facebook pages filled with pictures of him in makeup, badly photoshopped pictures a la what was on Lamebook this week, and in general, teen angst.

Tee hee.

So many spelling and grammatical errors! How can someone who writes like that be on the "top," so to speak?

At least whale shit does not destroy neighborhoods and whale shit is good for fertilizer.

As far as spics go there are different levels of spicdom. I would put anyone from Spain, Portugal, Brazil or Argentina near the top. The Mexicans, Columbians and Guats are at the bottom.

What about someone from Mallorca?
