Little known fact. Jimmy and my uncle Bobby rolled a big old joint out of that stock certificate on September 19th of 1977 at Idora Park. Good news is he kept the bike.

Id say the global economy worked out really well for the usa wouldnt you say? Now you can put a tv in the crapper for pennies on the dollar. Just have to pull some overtime at the taco bell.

Youngstown was a great place to grow up in. I lived there for the first 50 years of my life then moved out of state because I did not want my young kids to grow up in Ytown. Boardman, and Austintown are not much better. The population went from 167 thousand to about 65 thousand. What a shame. Norhing there but tumbling down houses and crime ridden neighbor hoods. If it wasn't for YSU Youngstown would be a sad memory.

I used to work in Y-town for 10 years for a hydraulic equipment mfg from 1995 to 2005. Lived in Canfield. The mills were all shut down by that time already and there were only one or two ‘mini-mills’ left. They produced specialty steels with a fraction of the personal the old mills employed. The Youngstown downtown area was a ghost-town with a lot of boarded-up storefronts. Drug related gang violence was rampant and being in the wrong part of town after sunset was risking your life! The ‘old-timers’ still believed that the mills would come back one day. I wasn’t going to wait around and moved south. Still have a few friends up there who regret not having done so themselves!

I worked off & on in Ytown for years; it has had it's ups and downs, but is surviving, thanks to YSU!!! And, the downtown appears to be coming alive again!!

It's a damn shame that this country was sold out back in the 70's when most of us were too young to do anything about it!

To think of all the know how our country has lost in the last 40 years. If we had to bring all this back, I don’t see the skill here to do it. An average CEO today has no idea how the products are made. We are headed for the stone ages that’s for sure.

Start up companies with the intention of building all USA in many industries, such as textile, found out very quickly that they couldn’t because the skilled labor and support infrastructure doesn’t exist here anymore

That's actually a myth propagated by the business owners who lobbied for NAFTA. Germany has a thriving UNIONIZED steel industry, but German businessmen are less fond of tanking their companies.
