(End of the American Dream)—In 2024, virtually all major U.S. cities have certain things in common. First of all, if you visit the downtown area of one of our major cities you are likely to see garbage, human excrement and graffiti all over the place. As you will see below, some of our core urban areas literally look like they belong in a third world country. Most of our politicians don’t seem too concerned about doing anything to clean up all the filth, and so it shouldn’t be a surprise that rat populations are absolutely exploding all over the country. In some of our largest cities, the total rat population is numbered in the millions.
Meanwhile, rampant theft, out of control violence, endless migration, predatory gangs and the worst drug crisis in the entire history of our nation have combined to create a “perfect storm” of social decay that is unlike anything that any of us have ever seen before. Millions of law-abiding citizens and countless businesses have been fleeing America’s largest cities, and property values in our core urban areas have been absolutely crashing. We really are in the early stages of a full-blown societal “collapse”, and things just keep getting worse with each passing day.
In this article, I want to focus on the three largest metropolitan areas in the United States: New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
John Williams recently took his camera with him as he walked through downtown Los Angeles, and he described what he witnessed as “hell”…
Decades of failed policies have transformed one of the greatest cities in the entire country into one of the worst.
At this point, theft has become so rampant that even the ultra-progressive politicians in California have come to the conclusion that something must be done.
So several bills that would “crack down on shoplifting” have been introduced in the state legislature…
Shoplifters beware.
The California Assembly has introduced a comprehensive package of seven bills aimed at addressing the rising concerns over retail theft across the state.
One of the key initiatives is Assembly Bill 2943, jointly authored by Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur (D) and Speaker Robert Rivas (D). The bill targets serial retail thieves by introducing a new crime with penalties of up to three years behind bars for possession of stolen property with intent to resell. It also allows for the aggregation of similar thefts from different victims to charge grand theft, under specific criteria.
Hopefully something will get done, because right now a criminal in the state of California can “literally walk into a retail store every single day of the year and steaI $949 worth of merchandise” and never spend a single minute in jail.
"You can literally walk into a retail store every single day of the year and steaI $949 worth of merchandise"
"And you will NEVER do a minute in jail"

Los Angeles has become a paradise for shoplifters, but many would argue that things are even worse in the Big Apple.
As I discussed a few days ago, New York City has “a $4.4 billion shoplifting economy”. And approximately 90,000 packages are stolen in New York City every single day.
This is just one of the reasons why we have seen a mass exodus.
Countless New Yorkers have already left for greener pastures, and lots more are thinking of leaving…
About 7 million New Yorkers plan to leave the state, a new survey revealed this month.
In a new Marist poll, 37 percent of New Yorkers—roughly 7 million people—said they plan to move away. The number was slightly more concentrated among Republicans, as 46 percent said they plan to leave the state compared to just 29 percent of Democrats.
Unsurprisingly, many of those that are fleeing are heading to Florida…
For many, Florida remains one of the top places to move, but Southern states in general have been recording the biggest influx in transplants.
According to Realtor.com, Philadelphia, Miami, Atlanta, Tampa and Orlando remain some of the top locations for New Yorkers to start again.
I wouldn’t want to live in the Big Apple either.
The rat problem alone would be enough for me to move.
It just continues to escalate, and politicians are now proposing to use “rat contraceptives” to deal with “the millions of rats lurking in subway stations and empty lots”…
In New York City, the idea to distribute rat contraceptives got fresh attention in city government Thursday following the death of an escaped zoo owl, known as Flaco, who was found dead with rat poison in his system.
City Council Member Shaun Abreu proposed a city ordinance Thursday that would establish a pilot program for controlling the millions of rats lurking in subway stations and empty lots by using birth control instead of lethal chemicals. Abreu, chair of the Committee on Sanitation and Solid Waste Management, said the contraceptives also are more ethical and humane than other methods.
Unfortunately, New York City doesn’t have the worst rat problem in America. That title actually belongs to the city of Chicago…
Chicago has once again been declared the rattiest city in the U.S. according to Orkin’s annual ranking.
Los Angeles surpassed New York on this year’s list now holding the #2 spot and bringing the Big Apple down to #3, Orkin shared.
Other notable shifts included Houston, which moved 10 spots up to #20, and Charlotte, North Carolina that rose 16 spots to #21.
Somehow, the rat problem in Chicago has gone to an entirely new level in 2024.
In fact, one local resident says that it is now the worst that she has ever seen in her entire lifetime…
A resurgence of rats has gotten out of control in Chicago’s Portage Park neighborhood, multiple residents explained Friday as they called for city leaders to take further action.
Diana Gazda, a resident of the Far Northwest Side community for seven decades, said she has never seen an infestation like it.
“We never had a rat problem like this,” she stated. “I’ve been here 71 years in my house.”
In addition to being world famous for rats, the Windy City is also world famous for violence.
In Chicago, you can be gunned down at any time of the day or night. Nobody is safe, and that is especially true for police officers…
A Chicago police officer was shot to death early Sunday in Gage Park on the Southwest Side in what sources are saying was an apparent carjacking.
Officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert about 2:55 a.m. and found Officer Luis Huesca with multiple gunshot wounds in the 3100 block of West 56th Street, a police spokesperson said in a statement.
Huesca, 30, was driving home from work, according to city officials. Huesca, who was still wearing his uniform, was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
So which of these cities will completely collapse first? I think that is a very good question.

They are all headed downhill very rapidly, and they are all being run by radical leftists. Of course the exact same things could be said about dozens of other U.S. cities.
For years, I have been warning my readers about the “cultural transformation” that has been taking place in America.
How we raise our kids really matters. We have been failing them for decades, and now the consequences can be very clearly seen in the streets of our major cities.
A horrific societal collapse is upon us, and yet this nation continues to refuse to change direction.

It’s a race to the bottom, and in my opinion it’ll be a tie. The big question for me is: Will they drag the rest of the country down with them? I think yes, due to lack of assimilation by our immigrants–legal or illegal, it doesn’t matter. A country ALWAYS has values and traditions in common among all its population, but the US no longer does. It is going more and more toward a Police State combined with Anarchy, a mix of tyranny combined with lawlessness. I don’t see a path to recovery from this. A serious effort would be to halt ALL immigration–legal and illegal–until assimilation occurs and we regain a unique American culture again. But no one seems interested in having that, so the “diversity”–the divisiveness among all segments of our society–will continue until our country as founded is destroyed.
And God help the police if they continue to get in the middle of it.
We did that and it is why we got Ted Kennedy’s “D” immigration act in 1965 at the same time we got a lot of democrat socialist legislation that set the path to America’s destruction.
In 1954 we closed Ellis Island because in it’s 62 year history we had taken in 12 million immigrants and congress said we needed to assimilate these people so almost NO IMMIGRATION into America for barely a decade.
Joe Biden and the sinister democrats will have brought in as many immigrants in four years as the nation did in 62 years.
For these reasons it will be New York that collapse first it has by far the stupidest political leaders and people running stuff in the country!
By what metric are they still afloat? I consider all three a total loss. I wouldn’t live in any of them, even with a deed to the entire city.
I don’t care which one collapses first. What I don’t want to see happen is for the Right to bail them out. Anyone from our side who helps them, should be seriously bludgeoned.
I vote for Chicago. When the gangs of the southside realize that they can do anything they want any time they want to, they will venture north into the city. The illegals that are already there will have a choice, they can leave (with no where to go) or they can just switch to joining and supporting the gangs. There won’t be enough food and supplies to support everybody, so it will be off to the suburbs to replenish their larder.
Of course, we will only hear about it, because it won’t be taped or filmed as it would be too dangerous for the camera crew. So, we will only get aerial views from helicopters if those aren’t shot down. When the situation goes down, it will happen very fast and with no way back. The question will be, what will the gangs do with all of the drugged out zombies and homeless folks? My guess is lots of piles of burning bodies along Michigan Ave. The commodities market will instantly stop, which will affect the rest of the country.
They have already collapsed; they are just getting everyone’s tax dollars to continue their destruction of America.
All will collapse eventually. Minneapolis and St. Paul, along with Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, Trenton and Camden NJ are already there. All who are moving to the south, just don’t bring your politics that caused the destruction of those cities.
Detroit.
Detroit was done awhile back, and it made no difference in the residents’ politics.
You can’t fix stupid.
Simple Problems require simple solutions.
Give Hormel meat products a subsidy to build a processing plant near New York. They can introduce a Spam (spiced ham) like product made from rats. New Yorker’s will love it. Thugs in New York can hunt and kill rats, solving the Rat Problem. It will be more fun than Sucker Punching and Stealing from old ladies. It will give the thugs a whole new sense of self-worth.
The Palestinian immigrant Problem. Just send them back to the West Bank in a brand new shiny Boeing 737 MAX aircraft.
Won’t work. The ones who would catch the rats need to go to rehab first!!!! Then they’ll probably need a crying towel, safe space, all day sucker, some nice rolls, buttermilk, a teddy bear to hug and someone to tell them everything will be ok!!!
Prompted me to ask, whatever happened to the NYC “Rat Czar?”
