Homicides down in our city, but...

Every time a factories moves it leaves behind a burn out communities or ...
free trade is economic homicide

Our city newspaper headlined the homicide rate as being the lowest in a decade and perhaps the lowest in fifty years.

The report does not tell the fact that Cleveland Ohio's population is down about 50 percent.

The report does not talk about this or the fact that much of the business activity is down even more than 50 percent.

You can not shoot people who are not there and robbers do not rob empty stores.

President Roosevelt said economic diseases are highly communicable. In many major cities like Cleveland, it looks like a plague came through it . There are miles of major avenues in Cleveland with empty storefronts, empty factories and empty lots where homes, businesses and factories were torn down. There are even about ten farms now within the city limits now.

I recently visited an area near downtown Cleveland and noted how different it was. I then noticed there were no people around like there were when the area was full of business traffic.

Cleveland invested a great deal of taxpayers money to build the new Euclid Avenue Corridor. It looks great but with the exception of the Cleveland Clinic neighborhood, it reminded me to a movie set where a facade of structures only exists. Behind them it is nothing. In Cleveland there is a wasteland of darkness behind the new Euclid Corridor. Even in the new corridor, there are only a few people in sight from the downtown theater area for miles t to the Cleveland Clinic area. In the 1950s, a vast aviation travel community was in this area. There was tons of pedestrian and auto traffic. They are all gone too. A letter writer told the Plain Dealer that the city should put up cardboard people to pretend there are humans using the Euclid Corridor.

In the 1950s, our city of full of business activity. There was massive pedestrian and auto traffic. It was almost impossible to drive from either side of the city on the main streets because the massive traffic. I commuted to college by the surrounding highways that were less direct. Fourty years later, the fastest way to get to the college was down Carnegie Avenue right through the center of the city. This was much faster than any of the old or new highways surrounding the city. The same is true today.

During the 1960s, I serviced many of the last family owned supermarkets. There were many in the inner city. Now many of these locations are too dangerous to travel in. I serviced some right in the heart of these areas.
During the decade in the 1960s, about seven supermarket owners were killed in the midst of robberies. Compare this with the rate in the 1990s when most of the family supermarkets were gone but with much fewer smaller American Arab food stores taking their place. During that decade, about twenty American Arab store owners were killed in the midst of a robbery. Of course now there are even fewer stores open for business.

In the 1970s, I was in computers when Cleveland was a center of high technology and I could stay downtown calling on major corporate accounts for a full day at a time. There were about 50,000 workers representing major computer and business machine manufacturers working out of the Cleveland region. There are only a few left today. Today, there are many office buildings without tenants downtown and on many main streets throughout the city. I get very sad when I see empty employee parking lots that once were full of cars now full of weeds.

When they talk about the low homocide rate today, they should mention some of the above but they do not. There is only one major newspaper left. It has shrunk in size too. Sometimes the news section weighs much less than a pound and the ad inserts weigh three pounds or more. The ads inside are from the big box stores with most outside of Cleveland and full of advertised products from other lands. There were three major newspapers in 1960. Now there is only one and they appear to be promoting the globalist free traders adgenda. They may soon be one of its victims too. by Ray Tapajna, Bio and links
