Shareholders don't care 'bout communites. Don't care about local industry or jobs. But they DID care about selling off those assets that kept us ALL in work and out of poverty.
How dare people try to blame industrial decline on socialism. There wasn't even the faintest atom of socialism. Perhaps if there were - those industries would still be alive and maintained.
Money can't exist in and of itself. People have to PRODUCE cars or solar panels or something tangible. ugh!
The same malaise that turned Russia into the Hellhole that it is, is also turning America into a third world country.... Socialism, Liberalism. Companies are leaving the area in droves and taking the jobs with them.
It was privileged management and privileged union bosses who sold up shop and made a lot of money.
I didn't see many bailouts for the shipping industry or any industry were people actually made palpable and useful objects and materials.
Were was their bailout?
You can't live on virtual money. Shareholders are the No.1 destroyer of communities and industries. For goodness sake take a look at detroit and chicago.
Socialism? Where? You're being dishonest about privilege.
I went to Chicago, in 2004, lots of homeless people, lot's of blacks impoverished, and lots of mentally ill people, that was 7 years ago, and I could see the deterioration back then, but I knew it would get worse.
they let industry die. they threw people on the scrapheap so they could make more money. they didn't care about those communities or the people who worked hard for them.
@telemetry9 Maybe the unions shouldn't have tried forcing absurdly uneconomic wage rates upon them. You are right, they said the hell with it, and left the country.
How are companies suppose to "care about communities" when they can't make a profit. We workers have to sell them on the profitability of setting up shop here.
Belive it or not i live in chicago and even some cops are buying and selling weed morphine pills marjauna everythin then sell for a higher price i got a job at a barber shop and get good money
The most liberal and pro-socialist city in America is drowning in poverty? I thought liberalism, high taxes, big government, and socialism were the CURE to poverty! Surprise surprise...
This is exactly what WAS happening in California but we got rid out all that together as a state its possible for Illinois to do the same they need to stop with corrupt government
@juze0303 There is no government there is only any despotism within economics, we have too many persons and not enough jobs nor any real plan in washington accept communism which we inherited from the war on terrorism, so what did we fight for? Nothing but a dream that one day we would all live in peace and that every person would have what they want and need
Don't worry your government has money and resources for isreal egypt iraq the world bank etc it can rebuild whole nations on the backs of american citizens. and neglect cities like chicago detriot etc and its only going to get worse in this stupid racist country.

i remember before 9 / 11 i was working for a german film production , they got no permission to film the outside districts of new york ( it was 1998 ) tent cities everywhere ppl lying on the street , sick , we got our pictures with the hidden cam , i was in that time a student and had full access to these tapes . it was pure horror , you really got scared when you saw this. this was 98

There is no wealth without commonwealth. Wealthy people should pay more taxes because they use more, in order to create their wealth they must have greater access to natural resources, infrastructure, and civic services either directly or indirectly. No one can say I did it all by myself.
that go's to show u that we are strong but we still need some help over here obama, u aint did shit yet nigga and we the same mother fuckers that voted for yo ass .....u is a true nigga liyin ass..............fuck it just make it where can get jobs and we will fix our shit ourself
obama bush what's the difference. you people keep choosing up sides and that's exactly what they want. we need to get rid of the ones calling the shots.
get them to choose up sides and they will all ways play in your arena
At least Bush had the guts to stand for what he represents. war & oil. In sharp contrast Obama is a downright coward & fraud who ratted on everybody except his fund sponsors. the banks & defense. CHANGE my ass. How he can keep a straight face & lie repeatedly to the dumb USA public beats me. Only a top class con artist can do that kind of trick.

Chicago isn't the only city that has been hit hard, look up "Detroit in ruins" on YouTube. The once car manufacturing hub of the world is practically a ghost town. This is happening all over the states. Many cities are starting to look and feel like Detroit and Chicago.
Chicago is actually getting better as far as crime is concerned. our new Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy drove all the criminals away from Chicago & into the suburbs. so now the Chicago suburbs are crying foul. lol.
@USAdude30 Yes, but Ron Paul doesn't believe in universal health care, even though he worked (and made money from) the Federal govt for a long time. We need universal health care, and everyone thinks so but the insurance companies and the American Medical Association. I can't support someone who doesn't think we should take of the health of those who don't work for corporations.
Sept-22-2011--NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Investors staged a global flight from risk Thursday that sent the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its worst two-day point drop since November 2008, after a gloomy outlook by the Federal Reserve renewed fears of an economic slowdown.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 391.01 points, or 3.51%, to 10733.83, for a two-day loss of 5.92%. Investors barrelled out of stocks and into "safe" assets
All the pride, glamour and wealth surrounding this city is a showoff. Only a part of the city is worth seeing, but the rest is like any other city suffering from years of mismanagement, crime, poverty. moreover, racism is a huge problem apart from crime in the windy city. Either people are criminals or plain racists in that city. Its high time that they start cleaning their own backyards rather than criticizing other people.
Why is America sending billions of dollars abroad each year for aid when its own country is filled with poor and jobless people? Isn't this really bad prioritizing? I mean, all those aid for the Middle East, Africa, Pakistan etc. could have been better used in the US itself, propping up its education, industry and public services. And whats with the wars the US is fighting everywhere? No country has ever benefited from prolonged wars, that's an undeniable fact the US must accept.
Oh the media gotta love em. I love how they portray "poor" as black and Englewood. Get real, that neighborhood has been poor and crime ridden for decades.
@eaguir3 Living in poverty is a real concern because so many are struggling to survive which creates any rise in drug addiction which rich persons capitalize upon in many ways, we can blame this on no one but anyone buying into religious freedom as any form of psychology for any answer, most poor are as much prejudice as the rich, however where are any role models ever when people worship success and financial wealth and any game of image?
@achzdck No, thats the problem. Your looking for "leadership". When in realty the problem is the people. Alot of those people in Chicago living in poverty have spent the past 10,000 years living in the third world. And you expect them to just all of sudden be civilized and intelligent in 2011 AD? LOL wishful thinking
Our stimulus goes to other countries? Yes. The U.S. Department of Energy revealed $60 million of the $1.2 billion given to the agency in economic stimulus funds to study climate change. While some might consider the expenditure frivolous, especially given the nation’s financial woes, it should be noted that some of the equipment was not even intended for use in the U.S. but rather was deployed to facilities in the Maldives, India and Australia.
@rulesforrebels All the rich white people left American cities for the suburbs in the 1960's, along with all their potential tax dollars. Poor and black people to not vote for republicans, why would they? Cities have fewer resources now and little wealth.
@Saebeck32 right instead they vote for the same crooks who keep promising to "help" them. how has that worked out for them? chicago and il as a whole have been one party states going back as far as you can remember, how has that worked out? maybe try putting some new faces in there and see if things get any better b/c the current set of schmucks like durbin, davis, cullerton, madigan, etc is realy making this city and state great.
Now...why are you only focusing on the African-American community here in Chicago? You aren't acknowledging that EVERYONE here is struggling. Black, white, Asian-American, Latino, whatever ethic group you choose to look at: We are ALL having financial problems here due to the cost of living being so high and jobs being hard to come by for EVERYONE. Nice way of being racist in a roundabout way, RT.
@dovebar27 Did you not listen to the repot? The unemployment rate is DOUBLE for blacks than what it is for whites. Ignoring the racial aspects to this problem would be a disservice to the African American community.
@Saebeck32 No man. The blacks are no longer independent. They are now depended and the money has run out. They are hurt the most. Blacks have been voting for the people that made them dependent. So it's their fault for calling us racists when we told them entitlements will destroy the people. Or its the democrats fault for not caring what happened to the people after they threw other peoples' money at them just to get their vote.Keep voting democrat and we will all find out what real poverty is
@easymoney4ever Blacks vote Democratic because republicans fought against civil rights in the 60's.....and the republicans are clearly more racist. Go to any Fox News Tea Party rally and you'll see some of the most racist, ignorant shit you've ever seen in your life.
That fucking teacher thinks that he is doing something good for Chicago by doing this interview.When all he did was make us look like a piece of shit.Every city I've ever been to has the exact same problems as chicago.bullshit
This is such bullshit.I saw this live on TV and I got so fucking pissed off.I live in Chicago and yeah we may have some problems BUT SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE IN THE FUCKING WORLD.I don't understand why it always seems like people are hating on Chicago.I have lived here ally life and I would not rather be anywhere else.it's a beautiful city with beautiful people, but it seems like people only like to focus on the negative parts and never give the good ones any spotlight .
@achzdck and just fyi, im against the european union, but its funny that you call it the eurozone, cause that is all the american mainstream media calls it nowdays.. luckily denmark isnt dependent on the european union for support, like portugal, spain, italy, greece, bulgaria, hungary, and i could go on... and what are those countries? not socialist, its kinda funny that the north, which is left/socialist oriented is the part of europe in least crisis? isnt it? that should proove something to u
@achzdck cool story bro, but where did americans come from? europe. thats right, even if ppl hadnt emigrated to the us there is no doubt all that stuff would have been invented, or atleast stuff like it.
It is so funny seeing kids like you saying america invented everything, and you are just some sad kid who havent accomplished anything, but yet you use the fact that someone from the same country as you, invented something 50 years ago to make you feel better about yourself and your country.
@achzdck but there are less slackers, uneducated, homeless, hopeless people in denmark than in usa. so sure, you can go on with that "socialism is a historic failure" that you americans learn in your shitty ass schools, but its all fine and wonderful over here, have fun in your hellhole, china is comming soon, buddy.
@achzdck for example. there is no lower class in denmark, unless you count poor gypsies that immigrated to beg on the street and isnt registered to get help, there are hardly any homeless people either, and the ones that are homeless is it because they want to and dont do anything to get out of it, if you are homeless you can get support and housing, and everyone gets free education, and you may think with all this help and free education that there would be many slackers, -
@achzdck you could call denmark a socialist state, compared to usa, and it has worked fine as socialism for almost 100 years, and the same in sweden and norway, so how exactly is socialism a historic failure? i think its the american people and the american system that is a historic failure, sure there are great americans, but there is so much slacking, crime etc etc etc. usa is the country with the highest percent of people in jails. and the system doesnt even do anything to help against crime.
You'd think that blacks would be more vocal in their opposition (if they even have it) to illegal immigration. Mexicans aren't taking the white man's jobs, they're taking the black's jobs. Whatever, Chicago is still about 100x better than any white Russian city, so go stuff it RT. What a festering shithole Russia is, I'd rather live in Mexico.
@thevster1603 Oprah is from Mississippi, not Chicago. And with your jacked up logic with all the rich whites in the world, there should be no poor whites anywhere on the planet and you and I know there are plenty. You could put all the rich blacks together and it doesn't solve all the poverty in America. Please try and use some common sense no matter how hard it may be.
@ShamelessNation dud,it's RT. the only thing they do is bash teh US for everything.even when talking about astronomy lmao.only useful idiots believe in RT propaganda.you know what, i dont even now what i'm doing here so...
@ShamelessNation you are right dude, but do most areas have the second most gangs in the nation? Naw I don't think so...the only city who has more gangs than Chicago land is LA. That is real shit, and it's always been like that out here n it's only going to get worse. Illinois got the highest debt in nation and the 2nd most foreclosures....It's only a matter of time before everything is ghetto out here.
@DutchBoi187 Chicago just has real strong people. You have to be made of steel to make it in that city. Unfortunately the criminals are strong as well as the good people.
@ShamelessNation I agree with you 100 percent, out by me it's real country but it's still chicago burbs...we got bangers just like in the city and they will shank you before you even knew what happen.
the criminals gotta get paid too, gotta get it anyway you can esp nowadays....we gotta make things better, unfortunatly that is just Chicago's way, always has since Capone, probably always will be.
notta, this all Bush's fault anyways...Obama can't dig us out of a hole that was already to deep. I'm just saying all those other cities with poverty don't got anywhere near as much gangs as we do, which makes it even more fucked up in Chi-town and most of the burbs.
You idiots unions did not kill anything. What happened was machines can now build faster and for cheaper than human beings. Machines don't get sick, tired or hungry. The time has come to adapt a new economical system and leave capitalism behind. Once austerity measures come into effect there will be blood on the streets. Just look at Greece. Capitalism is obsolete.
Meanwhile, back in the House of Representatives, the Republicans fight against socialism, and demand that the tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy remain in place.
Chicago will come back again some day (a lot of the city if gentrifying even now), but for now we need to work hard to make sure more people do not follow this same path. I wish corporations weren't so greedy and actually care about these Americans for once.
Unemployment increases again. Better news the Bureau of Labor Statistics has changed the way numbers are reported so the current unemployment of 9.2% should be at 9.4%. No more Obama!!!!!
i live in chicago. north west side. portage park. really nice area. and yes, chicago is the most expensive city in the nation. it also has no jobs! recently people from the south side (black) are coming deeper into the city to steal, sell drugs, beat up and rob north siders (white and yuppies) the poor are getting poorer and angrier. teens are having to many kids in this city!!! these teens are poor! making matters worse. such a beautiful city going down the toilet. not long b4 i move else where
best offer? when has that piece of shit OFFERED anything or payed attention to poor people, especially poor black people in the last three years. Another weak ass bullshit helping hispanics, they aint helping us, Osambo and Al sharpton are helping mexicans people from another fucking country while black people here are being destroyed. The mexicans at least were I live are our enemies, they hate us and want to drive black people out of LA.
well Mccain would have taken away public aid,section 8,social security, made jobs for the rich. Ignored the poor. ended abortion. if he was president.....there would be a grand baby boom because of 16 year olds. no public aid means homeless mothers and hungry babies. obama is NOT helping illegals. In fact he raised national security. and border wars. Keeping illegals out. Dont pull the race card. this isnt about "poor blacks needing help" poor blacks need to go to school. stop killing eachother.
@jackthenigger part 2: blacks are destroying themselves. they need to get off there asses and stop expecting the government to support them. blacks need to watch there damn kids and get them in school. these blacks allow there sons and daughters to leave school and gang bang. they allow them to kill children and successful students. society begins with parenting. i grew up dirt fucking poor. no government help. and im doing great. no pity party. im 1st generation puerto rican. my fam had values
@jackthenigger part 3: in Chicago, the black community does not want the police in there areas. but then when a black persons gangbanger kid, or innocent child get killed. they blame the police and expect the police and society to baby sit there kids. Mexicans work factory jobs, field jobs, butcher and industrial farms. with little pay. they pay taxes as well. if a person receives a paycheck, taxes are removed. dont blame the mexicans for working shitty jobs that blacks think there too good for
@jackthenigger part 4: with that being said, blacks need to help themselves and each other. in chicago we had section 8 housing area in the gold coast. like 4 huge buildings. blacks lived for free. they decided to fuck it up. chicago tore them down. little girls where being raped and killed. kid napped. everyone killing each other. some where left homeless. a alot of them where given BRAND NEW HOUSES AND CONDOS. so no. i strongly believe blacks do not need help.
True the Black people need to help themself things I think would help more Black males and females applying to be police officers and other emergency services, this will help build the black community and show them in a postive light. snitching thats right snitch on all that commit crimes , they need to snitch on there the gangbangers in the area even if its there own blood.
I would be happy to buy property in those neighborhoods if I had any money, and if those people were moved out of the way. Also Europeans love coming to Chicago, so I'm sure they'd like to take a piece.
Hey RT, why don't you turn that journalistic gaze back onto yourselves and look at the horrible conditions in post-Soviet Russia? What about declining birth rates, crumbling cities, no jobs, drug abuse, AIDS, and the all important issue of CORRUPTION? How corrupt is the Russian government going to get before RT does its journalistic duty and reports on Russia rather than bull shit stories about the American police state or the Libertarian/Ron Paul cheerleader fluff?
Ha! Obama didn't care about Chicago when he was living there! This is just sad, and unfortunantly, its not going to get any better. The US and the world is crumbling! Humanity needs to stick together! Gov is not here to help us, just there to enslave us! God help us all!
@TheHomoludens NAZIism is not socialism. Communism is a form of socialism, but it is deeply flawed. You correctly identify the characteristics of corporatism, but you neglect the basic characteristics of socialism. By any measure NAZIism and Communism have failed to live up to the tenets of socialism. Socialism is achievable through a variety of methods, many of which do not involve a strong central government. I strongly suggest the works of P.J. Proudhon, Emma Goldmann, and Thoreau.
@MrStaxxy I make you laugh? Ok, good way of dealing with it.
You think you have free markets and competitive capitalism? Cleptocratic oligarchy!
The impoverishment of the US is the result of paper-money and a pyramidic scheme of money creation by the (privately owned) FED, it would have happened with left-wing or with right-wing politics, pure maths (exponential growth).
There are good reasons for the way money was meant to be in the US constitution. End the FED!
US won´t solve their problems with either party, they´ve both longtime been bought up - guess what - by international corporations and banks.
Those suckers will make economy crash on an international scale in order to then bring out world government (hidden behind world currency), so don´t expect things to get any better with the same heads on top...
@DoctorMandible I'm no expert but isn't socialism unprogressive for the economy, and you also have lazy, uncommitted individuals who would exploit a socialist system.
@Evergr3entree There are already people who are unable to contribute to society. But, rather than care for our fellow brothers and sisters, we let them rot and die in violent ghettos. Lots of people skate by and are lazy under our capitalist system. People who make money simply because they have money, for example.
@SupernaturalGifts777 yes, if Ron Paul was elected our country could be making a comeback right now, instead are economy is in shambles and heading fior chaos
If there's no jobs then the only way someone can attain wealth is to inviolate the law in order to acquire currency. This is where the root of the problem is...since the current socio-economic paradigm requires currency in order to survive - the monetary system BREEDS crime, but requiring one to have currency to survive. Want to cure crime AND poverty at the same time?...abolish the monetary system. Please see the Venus Project and the Zeitgeist Movement for more information.

IT MAKES NO SINCE FOR BLACK PEOPLE TO VOTE AGAIN FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA. IF BLACKS VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN, I CANT' SUPPORT MY COMMUNITY ANYMORE. I'M TIRED OF BLACKS WORKING AGAINST THEMSELVES.
This is evidence of a system long since non-applicable. How much of this kind of social degradation will it take to see that we have th resources to do what we need to? Scarcity systems of self-maximizing competition and profit-motive economies are now only holding us back. Your box will get too small one day. How much cramping can you take before considering an alternative? Educate yourself: Garbage Warrior; Zeitgeist Moving Forward; History of Oil; Food Inc; Story of Stuff;
But what about all those 'community projects' Obama organized? Government has regulated industry right out of America's big cities. This is part of a long-term plan to destroy the middle class and weaken America in order to bring in a one-world government. One thing Chicago has no shortage of is cameras!!
@katydig There were more cameras placed around the Federal Reserve Building at the South Loop. This is a waste of taxpayer's money and privacy. If cameras are so helpful in fighting crime. Then banks and gas stations would never be robbed. Individuals should be granted more responsibilities in fighting crime. Pass conceal carry.
@popcur Good points. Kevin Trudeau may run for Congress. He's good at exposing government criminality and very capable of presenting the issues to the people. Check him out at KTRadio.com His radio program airs from noon to 1 pm M-F and he broadcasts from Chicago.
This may be one reason for unemployment. Check out this video on YouTube about immigration and the world poor: "Immigration by the Numbers -- Off the Charts" Watch it and let me know what you think.
Well I have to say: America, you really deserve it. For all the Financial Terrorism, Corporate take over of Foreign Countries, Manulation of Stock Markets, Oil, Metals and Endless Wars. And all for Israel's sake. Hope it was worth it.
@JPMorganMustDie Actually, it's not America, it's the secret government/corporation/banker cabal. But Americans have let this happen. We need to kick the bastards out of office, out of board rooms, out of the cities and put them in the FEMA camps they made for us and Gitmo.
Our industry has been sent to China to increase profit margins for the "share holders" and of course they want the middle and lower class dead and out of Chicago, water is headed for huge demand. Thats why China is taking the water from the great lakes and filling their reservoirs.

@TheHomoludens NAZIism is not socialism. Communism is a form of socialism, but it is deeply flawed. You correctly identify the characteristics of corporatism, but you neglect the basic characteristics of socialism. By any measure NAZIism and Communism have failed to live up to the tenets of socialism. Socialism is achievable through a variety of methods, many of which do not involve a strong central government. I strongly suggest the works of P.J. Proudhon, Emma Goldmann, and Thoreau.

@JPMorganMustDie Actually, it's not America, it's the secret government/corporation/banker cabal. But Americans have let this happen. We need to kick the bastards out of office, out of board rooms, out of the cities and put them in the FEMA camps they made for us and Gitmo.

Our industry has been sent to China to increase profit margins for the "share holders" and of course they want the middle and lower class dead and out of Chicago, water is headed for huge demand. Thats why China is taking the water from the great lakes and filling their reservoirs.
