Crazy part is, da cost of living is gonna rise here in Vegas too especially with all da folks from Cali moving here in droves and da construction on da Raiders stadium and redevelopment in da Arts District

People cannot face the reality that most places are getting overpopulated. There is no such thing as infinite growth.

Never thought I would ever hear that about the jungles breh. I used to live on Ursula Ave a while back and that shyt wasn’t pretty but i had fam in the area as well so I was good over there. But you had to know how to move out there especially at night. I never parked the whip on the street.

Now it’s like what you say. 1 on of uncles been in the area for like 30+ years and has see the transition and told me one of my other uncles just moved over there in a new building full of CACs and I couldn’t believe him but I know it’s true. shyt is wild because all of that is 5 mins from those bustas in Baldwin Hills in one direction and 5 mins from Coliseum/Crenshaw/Rodeo/Exposition in the other direction.

shyt must feel like another world. I miss those days of riding down La Cienega like it was no big deal.

Miss walking thru Crenshaw mall even tho it was a trash mall and you could get better shyt elsewhere. So many memories breh. Even driving way out to Wilmington to get parts for the whip at the junkyard and I even remember getting my first car stereo installed at a Best Buy on Rosecrans in Torrance.
Don’t you live in Nyc? Now you grew up in California?

The biggest problem with gentrification is that people want to live in the past, they want time to stand still. When shyt is bad it won’t stay that way it called progress. We need to follow up on all community mattters and be prepared. If rent goes up work 2 jobs or get a better job. That’s The reality. Have rent lawyers on retainer. It’s not impossible to be landlords if prepared. Also this stupid post of I saw a white guy or girl walking their dog or jogging in a certain area has to stop. We aren’t savage animals that attack on site. Anyone thinks that is a fukking moron.

:camby: with that Republican logic with "get a better job" when jobs themselves are getting automated or downsized. Its uncharted greed and people :cape: for the rich person because that what they envision themselves to be in that position to exploit other people one day.

You see this why nothing changes. You want to stay in the past. It’s over move on. I’m not stanning for the republican moron. You created this narrative in your mind . What I said was we have to keep up. You mentioned automated, again you mindset is simple. Why the fukk do blacks have to be doing manual labor?? You say downsized , well wouldn’t having more education and working in better fields help fight it? If you think posting talking points will change things good luck. Post those smiles to get your point accross . It’s 2019 , we have the resources to do better. Again just keeping your neighborhood clean and maintained helps, support the local business so when a Starbucks opens or some wine shop opens they fail. Here is a prime example, if you live in NYC, look at Jackson Heights along Roosevelt Avenue. It’s still mostly Hispanic and Asian . Whites have made no progress there dispite the trains and bus service out there. They support local businesses and keep the area maintained.
Feel free to continue live back in the day and think it will work.

:snoop:

You think an economy only built of nepotism and limited high paying jobs can support the population of 8.6 million people? Extreme cost of living and unregulated greed harms everyone.

Whos gonna work on fixing the roads? Bankers? :skip:

Whos gonna help the doctors help assist the patients? Lawyers instead of RNs? :mjlol:

Who gonna conduct and fix trains when they break down? IT workers? :dead:

Blue collar workers are needed to maintain society. Without them, the system falls apart. People who undervalued important blue collar professions are bound to live in a society where massive inequality exists.

Okay. You have to be white. Only a white man wants to see us in the same position for 100 years. Education? Nah work the fields ? College, nah be an assistant. Try harder in life? Nah nepotism. Stay in place boy. I can think of every reason not to change. When I’m wrong I will just post smiles and make more excuses. Only a pure white man thinks this way.

Economic fairness and accountability on all levels of government and business is being "white"? Every person working 40 hours a week should have a living wage where no one should worry about the basics. That should be a human right.

But You want that cannibalizing Ronald Reagan Mentality and overcharge the institutions like colleges and programs that can even gain access to those jobs. Scarcity of good paying jobs is causing this crisis, even with a higher education.

Truth is that a lot of people are feeling the pinch.

Most white people couldn't afford to live out there. But because they are 70% of the country, they have sheer numbers on their side. Whites in middle America ain't exactly thriving.

Asians and Africans do well only because the most educated and driven ones are able to even make it to the States. They were the middle and upper middle class back home. Those numbers would go down if every single Asian and African could jump the border. It's the same reason that Latinos don't do as well. Pretty much any uneducated Mexican can hop the border. The rich ones stay in Mexico. Africans and Asians gotta have their shyt together since they can't sneak in.

Mexicans have a lot of babies and then have a constant stream of immigration...so their numbers keep getting reinforced on two fronts. The issue will be, how many of them become honorary white people. Seems like the first or second generation that graduates college ALWAYS marries a cac. College educated Mexicans always marry white...it seems.
