this town sucks

apparently this city was once real prominent. but it is just a shell now. the west side of town has just been going under for years. no renovation. no motivation. no love. the roads are horrible and crime is high. this city is like a island all to itself. instead of renovating the train system that will give people the option to work in chicago which is 1 1/2 hrs away, which will create jobs, or building universities here and attracting companies that will allow you to make use of a good education, they just rather build jails and throw people away. thats the cities idea of building the economy. i believe almost every person in this city has had their name ran through this system. instead of creating situations to help the people of this city, the city just banks off of people by silly traffic stops. road blocks every week. the city has no hopes of building futures for people. just taking their money. The downtown is a hole in the wall. no night life, just jails. a metro center that was built in the heart of the downtown with no true parking and is not utilize to its potential. With no major acts being booked, they cant afford to continue renovation on it. Now it just sits. This city turns away every major attraction and business proposition that comes its way, its no wonder why people are so mad and walk with a chip on their shoulder. no opportunities. The old folks keep electing this idiot they call a mayor because they are old and happy with just being at home and having no excitement. I know this sounds like a grip, you are right. I hate this town. I am leaving next month.
