As a Polish individual who resided in the USA for over 35 years, I experienced a gradual decline in quality of life each year since my arrival. Four years ago, the tipping point was reached, prompting my family's return to Poland. We now reside happily in Warsaw, enjoying its safety and cleanliness. Our daughter, born in California, Orange County refuses to entertain the thought of returning. This decision ranks among the best in my life. It's not solely a California issue; the entire country is crumbling while its elites prioritize excessive spending on endless wars and undocumented immigrants.

As a Czech born, who has now lived in five countries, including 33 years now in the USA, I almost did as you have. But I know better the hisory of Europe and had a strange feeling Europe is soon to suffer a similar fate. So it would be out of the Frying pan, into another frying pan. My mom said it well in the early 2000's when she said to my father "you know better than to ever want to move back. There are cycles of history that always repeat in Europe. It's great now - but we need to remember that Europe will always be in a war eventually. She seems to have been right. Europe is a crazy place now, kind of like Democratic cities were fifteen years ago. Europeans just can't help themselves. They all hate their neighbors at some level. I grew up with Poles in Canada. The Poles were pretty brutal in their own hates and prejudices. And the Czechs are wimps. Europe - no thanks. Not for a long while with what the EU is up to. But good luck.

@@petroskyrillos Poland is in the EU, and seemingly one of the more warlike nuts if one judges by your leaders and media. I feel sorry for the regular people of Poland and other EU member states because you a a puppet of the US's biden regime. But the thing is that American politicians care not one bit about Polands long term well being. They treat their vassal states like cheap tools. Good luck to the people of Poland.

You're right. It is intentional. These properties will be bought at fire sale prices by Black Rock and other investment firms. Small real estate investors will be pushed out.

The money that is allocated to these city's goes straight into the general fund (AKA, the liberal programs piggy bank). Becoming a politician (AKA public servant) used to be a rough job, were you were away from your family for long periods and it didn't pay well. Now, its full of lobbyists, corruption, and lies, and they ( the politicians) can become millionaires off the backs of hard working Americans. I think we need to go back to when only folks who owned property or bushiness can vote in federal elections. They are the ones who actually have "skin in the game"!!

My grandmother who was very poor always said, "Just because your poor does not mean you have to be dirty. All you need to stay clean is a bucket, soap, and a will." The will part is especially key. What infuriates me the most is that if your poor or bad off don't waste money on spray paint. Save that money for food or clothes or a tent! There is no excuse for leaving trash around. Public trash cans exist. Poverty is hard to get out of, but a mindset willing to do better is vital for survival.

Still, Poland has its problems, for example public healthcare is strongly undeveloped, the political class is too divided and there is a neverending justified fear of Russian aggression.

Pennsylvania is among nine states with big declines in the number of people experiencing homelessness over the last three years, per a new federal report. Driving the news: The state's homelessness rate dropped to 9.7 per 10,000 people overall in 2023, down from 10.3 per 10,000 people in 2019. That means y'all got great programs that are actually working. Hopefully struggling states, like California, can adopt similar programs (if it isn't already). That said, if you were homeless in America, where would you head? Where is the weather easiest to survive year round outside, and which state has the most programs to help the homeless? That's where I would head. ...That's California. We import the country's problems, so everyone can point to Cali as the problem child. We're just carrying the slack for others. :\
