  Yes, it is a great tragedy, all the jobs going "south" so to speak.  I live in Milwaukee, and we  used to be known as the "manufacturers of the world"; now, as far as cities go, we are fourth worst city to live in, Detroit being number one. Definitely, it's a "race to the bottom" - but it's all PLANNED, isn't it?

    the chinese slaves make all the stuff now-greed by US and international companies and unions kept gouging for more benefits-we need real leadership to come up with ideas to put people to work and grow the private sector- all the kids are being brain washed that the gov can provide !!!

    Even 20 years ago Milwaukee was OK?

      Well, I grew up in the 50's and Milwaukee was FANTASTIC!  (Just like all those TV shows - Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, and That 70's show - it was just like that!)  .  It was a WONDERFUL place to live. We used to have the best transportation system in the entire U.S. - trolleys would run EVERY THREE MINUTES (but that was a little before my time). You could just have a high school education and get a union job (or at least a GOOD job).  Now, unless you're a professional, it's pretty dim.  I would not advise anyone to live here or move here.  Yes, Milwaukee is dying, little by little by little.
