The cities are a natural breeding ground for both financial & social mayhem/corruption. Humans are NOT by nature pack/herd creatures. Humans are HIGHLY SOCIAL but once humans begin to pack/herd in a particular area e.g., Seattle, Chicago, New York city they have a history of splintering into neighborhoods, e.g., the "Latino neighborhood", the "Hood neighborhood" etc. Once a city's population splinters they have essentially ISOLATED themselves from their neighbors/fellow Americans. When that happens each isolated neighborhood then is VYING for financial aid/special services(street repair, crime reduction, grants etc.). These "openings" to $pend more tax $$$$$ are a natural target for less than reputable elected official$, union$, appointed bureaucrat$ etc. The old saying, "A Divided House Cannot Stand" is obviously a fact.The roads are crumbling. Mismanaged wildfires have turned neighborhoods into ash. Drug addiction and homelessness have metastasized, turning parts of Los Angeles and San Francisco into no-go zones.
And the cost-of-living crisis is pricing middle-class taxpayers out of basic necessities like groceries and gas, even as the state spends billions on welfare programs that never seem to lift anyone out of poverty.
Californians are beginning to ask: Where is all this money going?
On paper, it funds public services. But beneath the surface, something else is happening: massive, systematic, brazen fraud.

Seemingly every state program has been compromised by criminals.

The best estimates suggest that, on the governor’s watch, fraudsters, scammers, and organized crime rings have stolen at least $180 billion from taxpayers.

As we head toward the midterms, with Democrats already rubbing their hands together on the number of impeachments they will bring day one, think about this....Gavin Newsome is their front runner right now for 28. The fraud happening in his state is astronomical...Is this who America want's to lead the country?
I am NOT saying distinct neighborhoods, private property borderlines ESPECIALLY in congested areas(cities) are not important for they are REGARDING HUMAN SURVIVAL. Where it goes wrong is when certain folks become afflicted with the dreaded ELITIST MENTALITY. Unfortunately our current state of humanity in general that I call the Human Condition(human nature) appears to be less than ideal regarding the long term survival of our human species. This is exasperated by technology ESPECIALLY when it comes to advancements in weapon technology.
