  1. We took the property tax from the urban core to build the infrastructure in the suburbs. As taxes were used to subsidize the suburbs growth, and we left the infrastructure of the urban core to deteriorate. Now that the infrastructure of the suburbs is over 50 years, the infrastructure of the both cannot be maintained. So the urban core become a blighted neighborhood. Yet we build more roads in the suburbs. We can see how the urban core looks like a refugee camp.

  2. So you guys complain about a lack of accountability from cops, but think accountability is a bad idea for schools and teachers? Geniuses

  3. Okay – who are those owners of intuitions? remember it's almost like the Roman Empire. — forget the talk – where's the evidence – City policies okay and that's not equal it never was.

  4.

  5. To the real news can you tell us what to do re/ gang stalking tactiçsc inside Skid row housuing corp. By employees

  6. There should probably be more stringent oversight on the tax free status of these institutions because they seem to be working like for profit institutions. Harvard for example has enough money make its education free to all its students with just the interest on their endowment. Why don't they? why do they keep accumulating assets whose productivity can't be taxed?

  7. Maybe hang pictures of the surrounding neighborhood all over JH. Fliers on car windshields in the parking lot. Protesters at the entrances.

  8. There is no justice in this country just laws to keep its citizens from justice that's why the law sistem should be abolished and implemented with a justice sistem. No laws only justice to enforce the sistem, call it what ever but make it justice.

  9. Easy fix….stop providing city services and stop them from hiring their own police. Watch how quickly they start paying their fair share. Thanks again Taya to you and your staff, for another great show. Keep up the fight!

  10. We the People have been erased from the constitution of the United States and replaced with We the Corporations and we the Big Money Spenders who don't pay a living wage to their workers (nurses). this has helped me with my decision not to use John's Hopkins as a Medicare provider.

  11. Business as usual in the good old USA…. Consolidate down size buy back stocks …. Good ole American Economics…. Down hill slide since the 70's. Cut or drop pensions. Kill Organized labor. Hire enough women to appear progressive. Who's in charge of all this. How does your standard of living measure up.

  12. They want as many Black people to die or move out of the city as possible so that the rich can scoop in scoop of all that land and take it for themselves. Once the few who can afford to do move out, they will scoop up all that property. Historically, we Black people are supposed to be at the bottom of the American social order. Spurious non for-profits like the NFL and other corporations are just fulfilling the American capitalist prophecy. Manifest destiny!

  13. WITH THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE NAME OF THE ONE WHO IS SWIFT IN PUNISHMENT, THE NAME OF THE GRANTOR OF ALL THE REWARDS!

    WE BEAR WITNESS THAT MUHAMMAD IS THE MESSENGER FOR ALLAH!

    I want to write disclose what my Lord Rabi has revealed to me about the beginning of creation in hopes that everyone would learn comprehend understand about everyones life beings, so before I do, if everyone is in error, in keeping with the Sunnah of the Messenger for Allah!

    “I seek refuge with Allah our Lord Rabbi from the accursed Shaytan Shayateen Satan, ourselves, and everyone else.”

    It is Allah who has created Adam PBUH, shaped his physical form as man on Earth (Ard), and raised him up in his splendor to the first Heaven of Aden; thus, cresting his wife Hawaa. Allah then willed his wife to have progeny found in the book of decree causing everyone of his children to be in the same residence to come up in the same house as Ins'e people found in the book of decree whom are on the same Earth Ard. Adam and all his descendants’ consisting of men and women that begin as children were made from water ma'e to until they become light whom are particles of dust, dirt, clay of the Earth Ard; they are referred to as Ins'e and are called Nas (mankind).

    Prior to the creation of Adam and his descendants’ Allah had created another man Iblis who was raised in his splendor up to the first Heaven of Aden. Iblis and everyone of his descendants’ consisting of men and women that begin as children whom were not there to be made from water ma'e, so before the meeting date on the first day of decree they will become asending rising fire nar which is in the book of decree that you have to be there for the meeting to witness the majority rising in illuminating fire nar as the Earth's Jahannams'; they are referred to as Jinn and are called Nas (mankind).

  14. Rosa home reflects the war on drugs and the Chinese stores at every cornerstone with bulletproof windows after selling rose jars to crackheads. Bubblegum cigarettes not included since 1980. Drugs that always came from foreign countries of Herione and Concaine planted in these kinds of communities of barrier stepping stones man made. When Martin had a dream he didn't own a gun, that came with the package handlers deals of heroine and concaine guns included blood and crips made in America.

  15. Real News Network; These Institutions suck the lifeblood out of Poor Communities, then they turn around buy up poor people's family Property… They are ripping families off of what could be handed down to their Children,,, To lift them out of poverty… The Tax Privelaged are scamming the Poor… Sinclair Broadcasting is included…

  16. Private business is a place for innovation and creating new and interesting products, but not good in operating necessary utilities as it is seen that the prices are higher and service worse in such cities.

  17. There needs to be a higher level of income where people are required to pay taxes, such as 100K or more. Also make it a flat tax on income so it is simple for people to figure out and not have many thousands of pages of tax code. Why should a multi millionaire pay less in taxes than someone earning 50K a year?

  18. Hahhaah Maryland is not a rival to Northern VA. hahahaha that's the funniest comment I've heard all day. Northern VA is a thousand times better. Baltimore is in such dire straits because of its leaders. Make a change people.

  19. These DYING CITIES CAN BE HELPED BY UBI. YANG FOR PRESIDENT. TAKE THE CONGRESSMAN, LOBBYIST MONEY FOR UBI(1000 DOLLARS A YEAR FOR LIFE).

  20. The Hunger Games….. I have long noticed how Wealthy areas are bordered by poor areas outside their gates. I think they enjoy have subjects to over lord and look down on.

  21. This ORGANIZATION called the GOVERNMENT in the state of Las Vegas, Nevada,,, These people have invisible SURVEILLANCE ON ME, MY CREDIT, UGLY RUMORS, They kept ME OUT of any of the social programs for the Elderly,,These people got?my credit REPORTS IN SHAMBLES,, THEY ARE SOME DIRTY BASTARDS THESE STATE AND FEDERAL EMPLOYEES

  22. I live in Las Vegas, Nevada and I am denied a home loan by the Federal and The State ,, These people PUT on my Credit Reports until the year of 2028,,, His name is Dave Jiminez he works for for the State and Federal housing,, I have asked this man? Why? And I have asked him to take this?off my credit Reports,, The state of Nevada is very cruel and unfair. to me,, these institutions are treating the citizen of Nevada awful,,, Yes I pay a THIRD OF MY SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK for Rent?

  23. Thank you for the program. Well informed panel and discussion. Lots I didn't know. We need to change the laws on tax exempt status. It's unfortunate that organizations that receive indirect and direct benefits from the city don't just offer to make contributions. But the wealthy are wealthy because they don't put out until they are forced to. There is no kindness or consideration in their system – we're talking "cold blood", which is why they can easily ignore the poverty around them.
    Fundamentally we need to change the capitalist system that breeds inequality, austerity, racism, sexism – basically group conflict – and so many other untoward behavior.

  24. Liked and subscribed. This is what newspapers and other news organizations used to do ! So thank you for that!!!

  25. The reason why cities died is because people don't want to work but still get paid. In a perfect world that's how it should be! The Democrats want it to be this way but the Republicans believe that you should work for what you have and that's the American way! If people don't want to work nothing will be produced so money does not exchange hands! That's where the repo man comes in and people lose what they have and get evicted! The Democrats kill jobs with their policies as well!
