(54,770 posts)1. Amazing so much good music like that -- McMurtry, Steve Earle, etc. -- comes from Texans and
others in the reddest states. I guess when you grow up among ignorant white wingers and lies, you feel it.

Depressing, but a list of what we need to work on to revive our cities and towns.
In the 60's, there ws blight in the big cities, and there were attempts at urban renewal. That didn't work in most places. From the 70s onward, we saw the blight spread and we are in this place now.
