Serious question, can anyone give me any Democrat policies that improve life in big cities?

I’m sure there are some, but I can’t come up with any.

Depends on which lives you're talking about.

Learn to code.

Seems to be their solution to everything.

They are fairly incompetent, stupid, and produce an easily gamed system for smart people.

That's all I got

No city in America, of any size or racial make up, has ever improved under Democratic leadership. Truth be told I can’t even think of a state that has shown improvement with liberal leadership.

If leading successfully was a prerequisite for public office, Democrats could never serve. The simply cannot lead.

Even in private life, most liberal men are beta males. They lack the intestinal fortitude to lead. It’s a simple truth most liberal men are bigger p ussies than liberal women.

They pass out lots of free condoms. It's like trick or treat, literally. Unfortunately they pass those out also in schools thereby sending your children inappropriate messages. And that doesn't even take into account the wide variety of orientations they cover. If it was your baby sitter you would have them arrested. Just saying!

Their “avoid responsibility and get an abortion” plan has worked for most who run from responsibility. Yet, that’s killed off nearly 40% of the black population over the last century. No wonder that demographic remains to be just 12-13% of the US population.

“I know you're poor but instead of you and your man staying together(knowing that 2 parent households gives a great chance to flourish), we’ll pay you to not be with him and put him in jail if he don’t pay you, too”. Nobody oppresses minorities like the democrats do. They don’t want families to be together and they want you to believe they can be your provider, so you’ll vote for them.

There was a Dim governor in NC, I think in the 90's, Governor Jim Hunt, who enacted some welfare reforms that I thought were pretty good. Basically, if you wanted to continue to get welfare, you had to do something to earn it (barring disability of some nature). I'm not sure if the state houses were under blue or red at the time, but the governor got a ton of the credit for it.

But that is all I've got and that was at the state level and not the city level.

Bill Clinton taught me that a BJ isn't considered sex, so there's that.

Remember that democrat Bill Clinton, with republican majorities in both houses of congress, was doing the same thing at the national level, which probably gave him some incentive to do likewise.

It was a Democrat dominated state legislature. The Dems had an almost complete lock on the state general assembly since the end of Reconstruction up until the last decade. My parents had to register Democrat in order for their vote to count back in the 60's and 70's because the winner was determined in the primaries in this state. That said, there were two options (types) of Democrat back then at the state level.

The Democrats have long ago lost any diversity of thought to amount to a hill of beans.

They used to be quite diverse, hence Will Rogers famous quip “I am not a member of any organized political party, I’m a Democrat”.

Now diversity to a Democrat focuses only on exterior appearance, not belief or philosophy.

The fact that they consider Joe Biden, who had the most leftist voting record in Congress not all that long ago a moderate speaks volumes.

There aren't any...that's the real answer...

Shirley Franklin in Atlanta did what 7 mayors prior refused to; she increased water fee by 200% in order to rehab the cities aging wasterwater system. During this period Atlanta was being fine $1M/month for combine sewage overflow discharges into the Chattahoochee River, but previous officials didn't want the backlash from increasing the price of water.

But didn't he have to be nudged by Newt to do that?

They've managed to raise from the dead thousands upon thousands of voters.

Even Jesus was only able to pull that off once, with Lazerus.

They were blue. The GOP has only been in charge of NC since 2010. During that time they only had a GOP governor for 4 years (2012-2016). NC is very blue at the state level despite the GOP having a history of success in federal statewide elections.

Wait, you aren't like most of the people we get in here from Birmingham. What happened to you??

Natural selection picked him to reproduce. Not so sure about the others.

I live in reality, most of the rest of the fanbase are idiots indoctrinated by their psycotic activist professors. No fandom will make me drop my values. What UAB’s professor did last week regarding the incitement of the riot downtown and tearing down the monuments, nearly made me want to find a different school to root for. However, can’t let them win.
