Far-left liberal city councils and leaders have contributed greatly to major American cities crumbling. A combination of pro-criminal policies, legalizing drugs, and runaway government taxing have left these cities in rapid decline.

In recent years, we’ve seen numerous people flee these cities. Even businesses are shutting down, leaving communities in the lurch. But one blue city could face a worst-case scenario.
A group of investors has spent nearly $1 billion on an ambitious project. And it may shut down the old city for good—or turn it into a mere encampment for the down-and-out of society.
From The Post Millennial:
A few months ago, it was revealed that Flannery Associates, an investment company, has spent nearly $1 billion in the last five years buying up 52,000 acres of dry farmland next to the Travis Air Force Base in Solano County, California…
The New York Times reported that billionaire venture capitalist Michael Moritz, along with other tech industry moguls, has been purchasing the land with the intention of creating a new California city near San Francisco, which is also within short distance of Silicon Valley.
Do they realize what a huge risk it is to build an entire city out of nothing?
That’s not a small investment. Yet this investment firm, which has the backing of Silicon Valley heavy-hitters, would rather spend a fortune on building a new city, than trying to fix San Francisco.
After a second thought it makes sense, yes?
San Francisco is lost to liberalism—a decline that has been ongoing for at least sixty years.
The cities surrounding San Francisco, are also being run by radical leftists. Crime is out of control. The streets are literally flowing with human feces. The downtown is essentially a shanty town.
And worse, the people running the city refuse to acknowledge their failures. On top of that, voters refuse to admit they are responsible too, for electing these people, because they are too proud—or simply brain dead.
What are the chances this new city will be nothing like San Francisco? How do the investors/founders keep the riffraff and the insistent, mindless liberal voters from San Francisco out?
These investors will not waste money building this place, just for San Francisco’s problems to migrate over. One would believe the city’s charter will include strict ordinances and building codes, and things like punishment for crime, strict drug restrictions, and measures to prevent homelessness.
Imagine what will happen, if and when this city is built. How many Silicon Valley staff will stay in San Francisco? How many people, regardless of their jobs, will stay in San Francisco? This move could leave San Francisco abandoned, just a husk of what it once was.
Does that previous paragraph have the ring of retribution and deterrence? Afterall, a person of sound mind would believe San Francisco is deterrence enough for people not to repeat their errors. Similarly, those left behind would be receiving retribution. But liberalism is a mental disorder and subsequently a lifestyle risk factor.
