The politicians, both D and R, are disingenuous, very few are totally serious about the failing & falling of America. Most are clueless, most are overmatched in this arrested system. Most are liars with little interest to fulfill campaign promises.

Societal breakdown is trending one direction, and has so for quite a while. But, Dow 34K and the Sun came up again today..let’s party on.

It's amazing how that area has transformed since Georgia State took over.


Summerhill is completely transformed. Literally from ghetto to happening, great neighborhood in the span of less than a decade.

They just opened a Publix at the corner of Cherokee and Hank Aaron Dr directly across from old Turner Field.a month ago. And our favorite ice cream joint is right there on that same strip.

think Atlanta is considerably above both in natural appeal. It's honestly Atlanta's strongest card against those two cities (perhaps weather too).

Great point.

Atlanta is a very green, very hilly city that leads to natural beauty.

Right. These people get out of their area code once every few years and now an expert on major metropolitan areas.

Got stuck there after a cancelled flight last Thursday night. I stepped out of the terminal doors to find a 3rd world country within our once fine Country. A liberal shithole if ever there was one.
Horrible place....and I live in Baton Rouge.

Only good thing about Atlanta is the Braves. Atlanta is a shithole that smells like pot 24/7.

Atlanta demographics are trending one way. Cities like Birmingham and New Orleans are trending the other way but its Atlanta that has issues/problems? People are actually moving into city of Atlanta yet they are fleeing Birmingham and New Orleans.
