Give me a break! I was just there. The reason there are no jobs is because nobdy want's to work. The Democrats have convince the whole area that you should stay home & let the goverment take care of you. A vote for Obama is a vote for your POVERTY!!! LEARN THE TRUTH!!!! GET UP & WORK!!!!

I'm fortunate to live in the coast.
It's whats keeping the rest of the state afloat.
Well it's a worldwide thing. We've always had the bounty of the sea and can harness it's power for human use. Its also good for global trade.
Your never going to see a failed city by the sea.

@123sippijacktown1 well, like the life in any large metropolitan area. All the same ills obtain in the rural areas,
they are just less concentrated.

VIDEOS LIKE THIS REMINDS ME OF MY HOME TOWN IN FLORIDA,, BUT LUCKILY I WAS BLESSED TO GET AWAY AT A YOUNG AGE! BUT NEVER KNOCK SOMEONES STRUGGLE, CAUSE U NEVER KNO WHY THEY'RE IN THAT POSITION!

Poverty probably is still in some parts of Mississippi. POVERTY is all of the U.S.; however, life choices keep some of us in poverty.You have got to graduate from high school and continue your education by obtaining a college degree or some other skill by attending a trade school or something.

rural Mississippi is heaven compared to urban nightmares. Interesting video tho

omg...first time seeing this. im from lambert, mississippi of course part of the delta...I EVEN SEEN A PIC IN THIS VIDEO OF THE TOWN. I recently moved to new york. and i see how people take advantage of the things they have here. YOU NEVER APPRECIATE WHERE YOU ARE OR WHERE YOURE GOING UNLESS YOU KNOW AND UNDERSTAND WHERE U CAME FROM. I Will never forget what people go through in the south. i wasnt in poverty but i understand and witnessed what it was like.

I like that "those who were left behind". Now remember that because all blacks have family that made it off the plantation, ran north(literally), & did well. These people(myself included) are the remnants of the slaves that had no where to go after slavery was abolished. See my grandfather/father was a cotton picker. I have touched the cotton sacks & seen the graves. But its up to each generation to better the next until we get ourselves out...mentally, emotionally, & financially! If you payin
