Why American cities are squalid

"What I see is that, in the US, larger cities are basically two-tiered. A wealthy downtown professional class relies on inexpensive labourers who can’t afford to live near their workplace or drive a car; who are forced into long commutes on public transport systems in terminal decline."

"Having garbage-strewn subways that effectively serve as mobile homeless shelters is no way to run a public transit system. "
