[quote=Anonymous]Too many lower skilled industrial factory and port jobs that attracted population in the early twentieth century, jobs that are not coming back. Same problem as Detroit, new Orleans, and other cities which had their heydays then. Lots of poor couldn't (or wouldn't) leave their community and families, couldn't find jobs or good jobs, and became trapped. The city I am from finally had to buy people out and bulldoze huge swaths of houses and commercial areas, as well as build.new public housing and attract and train for new industry. [/quote]
