Niggers.

Rust Belt had a lot of unions that increased labor costs so corporations went overseas for cheap manufacturing. Rust belt lost all the jobs and rotted away.

NIGGERS

joos

Your mom moved there

Tarbabys

Correct

This and this.

Also, some parts of the Rust Belt aren't so bad. Cleveland is a beautiful city in many places, and the cost of living is very low because all the yuppies, chinks, and hipsters wanna live in New York and San Francisco. You can get a beautiful old mansion in a white neighborhood in Cleveland for less than a studio apartment would cost on the coasts.

Cheap air conditioning and refrigeration made warm weather climates more desirable. The north and especially the Midwest is geographically irrelevant

Steel

Or you could say corporate greed and outsourcing was much more profitable to the CEOS so they simply abandoned American workers.

Libtards Rats.

Also because Ohio is literally the worst state in the entire fucking country KEK there's a reason nobody wants to live there and even shit tier jobs pay like $15/hour
>t. Ohio born

bad trade deals made by GoodGoy Presidents that enriched the (((financial elite))) but shafted the American blue collar worker

You always side with the owners-- yet you pretend to be a hardworking patriotic American. Why not Side with "the people". Plenty of decent Dems and Reps stand with the working class despite their differences.

I live near detroit, thus is a fucking myth, there are multi-million dollars homes in my neighborhood. This is a very rich area still. What really happened is niggers pushed the whites out of the city, and into the suburbs.

LBJ tried to crack down on nigger degeneracy here in Detroit, and as a response they rioted, Detroit never recovered.

Because unions became corrupt and shiftless.

Niggers
Unions
Trade "deals"

NAFTA

Think of how nice the rust belt would be right now without niggers. The unions had nothing to do with it.

>The unions had nothing to do with it

Wew lad

So you think nigs somehow sent all the jobs overseas and wrote all the international trade deals that devastated the job market?

Story of Chicago
>Be growing industrial city
>Hire tons of low-skill laborers, but treat them like shit
>Workers unionize so laborers are treated better
>Unions start getting too friendly with politicians
>Start demanding higher wages, pensions, and better services
>City raises taxes
>Unions want more money for pensions
>City raises taxes
Rinse and repeat. Illinois has high taxes from everything from casinos to soda, and we still can't balance our budget.

this is why i left shillinois over 4 years ago

Grosse Pointe, Birmingham, or Jewfield?

I've grown to love the rustbelt. I've worked from Pittsburgh to Detroit area and everything in between.

People there are really great. If you factor out the negroid populations and avoid them at all costs, if you stay with the white communities and hicks, they're really awesome people. They understand the shithole and why it's shitty but they're positive and are truly making the best of their situation. Not to mention that these "poor" people have it pretty well. The cost of living is ridiculously low, so that means you can have more things. I know plenty of lower middle class workers that have over 3 acres of usable land, boats, farming equipment, landscaping equipment, project cars, etc. These people may be poor but they live with such quality that it's hard to believe they're poor.

unions are what made the cancer that is NAFTA appealing.

American workers abandoned the country when they joined (((unions))) and voted for (((democrats)))

The job market is NOT devastated here. The unemployment numbers are almost all niggers. If Detroit were actually safe, local businesses would have provided jobs to cover the loss overseas.

Corporations would outsource and automate regardless of whether they're enslaving their workers or not.

The suburbs of detroit are not even that bad

You should really reflect on what you just wrote. You'll learn a lot about why we are fucked.

Has no concept of the history of labor in the U.S.

Outsourcing, since Chinese people get paid peanuts by comparison.

productivity was increasing wages
unions did nothing but launder money for the mob

Outsourcing would of happened anyway because wages in western countries are higher than poorer countries. Once poorer countries started getting industry it was game over.

The biggest driver isnt even businesses or unions, its the average american who would rather buy cheaper foreign made goods because of low labour costs and dont want to pay for higher priced western made products with higher prices.

For now the rust belt is in a state of decline until it gets to the point where it can begin to economically rebound from the lost of manufacturing.

In the meantime theres a lot of intradtate and interstate migration of unemployed. Rust belt ohioians to Columbus, Eastern michiganders to west michigan, Outside metropolitan chicago to metro chicago, Rural Wisconsin to metro milwaukee. and them also going elsewhere to the pacific coast, southwest, south, midatlantic areas where jobs are hard to find but at least exist unlike the rust belt.

Capitalism collapsing.

>Not choosing to make less money is greedy
This is why you're poor

Wallace, under FDR. Proto-European Refugee Crisis.

...

Unions, liberals & niggers

Seems to work fine in the south without Unions

The rust belt is where the majority of US manufacturing used to flourish, but then US companies started outsourcing labor to China and those same factories and workers couldn't compete against the cheap labor in China so they just lost all of their jobs.

id squat in that house and buy paint and building materials and turn it into a small fort

Hi Crowder

Hello from Birmingham

The South was less dependent on industry than the rust belt.

Read up wallonia and flanders in belgium. Wallonia used to have industries because they had coal while flanders didnt and was poorer for most of its history.

This turned out to be a blessing because wallonia got fucked up by outsourcing and the decline in coal usage. While flanders while it did had industry it wasnt the same extant as wallonia. So they survived and surpassed wallonia economically.

Replace wallonia with rust belt and flanders with the south and you get the point.

The south was lucky that they didnt have coal and mineral resources like the rust belt so they avoided having much industry.

You in Oakland County?

Not an argument.

Yes. I am surrounded by limousine liberals and wealthy kikes, but at least there's no niggers.

Ironically that house is worth a ton of money. The land it's on is all bought up in brush park, for the new sports arena. Gentrification.

There are some cunts but it's a good place to live and a great place to raise a family

t. Birmingham resident

I'm in Northville

I would move to Detroit if it were a police state behind a wall with militarized police everywhere with tanks and shit kicking in nigger doors.

Same here actually. I'm shocked, I thought I was the only Sup Forumstard in this entire city. Too many annoying high school kids on the weekends on Old Woodward though.

That new art gallery they put on on Maple/Old WW attracts too many libitards.

I knew a guy that lived near there a few years back. He moved to Chicago though. Cozy little spot in Michigan. Not too populated, but still close enough to urban amenities.

Better high school kids than niggers

I remember we had serious nigger problems around the palladium circa 2010. Southfield kids are like Detroit-lite.

Homes like that had so much potential. Foundations built to last, unfinished basements, 3 levels, porch, wood floors, arches, detailed trim and features, etc...

The downside, asbestos removal, but fairly easy to get a company to do that. Also, it's impossible to rehab these because the niggers and white junkies stripped the electrical and plumbing without care, to the point it's just easier to start completely new.

In cities that didn't strip these homes, these homes are in neighbourhoods that are considered "gentrified" and highly sought after and expensive. Congrats to cities that removed the blacks and restored them. The market gains they saw from them are unreal.

Lower wages, wonder why sales go down. Blame workers for wanting so much money [to buy stuff with].

White trash

Unions and Democratic control....easy

Go back to the Fox News comments section you Republikike

why don't you try explaining how I'm wrong?

This.

How in the flying fuck can the AFL-CIO support trannys and illegals?

It seems to me they hate the white working class and at the same time take their votes for granted.

Government endorsed outsourcing, unions, niggers, in that order.

Found some more, even the United Steel workers love illegals and trannys.

This is fucking intolerable.

Check out St Martin for a look at what niggers do for you area.

globalization, multinational corporatism, unfettered immigration, corrupt politicians,

This is true. I'm from Lackawanna NY. My dad worked at the steel mill for about three years before they laid him off and made my family homeless. The union knew the shutdown was coming and instead of doing something about it, they decided to fire everyone without enough seniority to instead give the old fucks more OT to pad their pensions. Since then I've personally detested the unions and went into law just so I could fuck them over.

Every shithole in the rust belt has two things in common. Complete Democrat control of the respective governments and niggers.

In retrospect building your entire economy on a few industries was kind of a dumb idea.

They didn't, it was bringing the niggers.

Robocop

Globalisation.

Detroit gets a white mayor, and a white area downtown, and suddenly it is making a huge comeback.

100 American replies before a brit gets the right answer. American education.

This is why Trump won. He promoted Protectionism over Globalisation, and the rust belt voted for him in the droves.

The real reason why the media got their panties in a twist over Trumps victory is because they get their money from companies that rely on shilling to sell their products.
