I know- it was illegal to be in that planet fitness for almost a year
 
Anthony Cumia was on JRE saying the street heroin addicts are back. Said on his commute it’s as bad as it ever was in NYC before .

He’s moving out.
 
Certainly big cities have their problems.

I'm surprised though how little gets said anymore about the "Deaths of Despair" phenomenon, mainly affecting older, white, blue collar men in red states or areas. The problems in this demographic have been severe enough to cause a drop in life expectancy.

There is a pretty good book by that title that describes the crisis.

Here's to the big cities dealing with their drug, crime and and other problems.

And here's to the hinterland coming to grips with its problems.

May the Americans who live in both places find happiness and prosperity.

California was a reliably red state until 1992.

Less than 30 years later it has turned into a ****hole.

Goes to show you how fast an amazing place can be destroyed
 
Charleston is a wonderful city. I think Cumia's gonna be surprised at how progressive the good people of Charleston are.

Cumia doesn’t care. He just doesn’t want to be taxed into hell, and let go as he pleases. As most do.
