It's great how you're able to extrapolate so much from so little. You must be a real genius of a money manager.

When Detroit and Flint went into decline, it was because they were dependent on the Automotive industry. And, so many manufacturing jobs went over seas and years later to Mexico. That is something that can be understood. Portland doesn't have that excuse. Instead, it's people and awful policies creating a pervasive hostile environment for businesses and it's own citizens.

Real estate prices are definitely not "crashing." Home prices have seen a slight dip in Portland for median price homes due mostly in part to very high interest rates, causing millions of homes across the United States to become unaffordable. The rate went from 2.99% to above 7% in 2022 which means many are priced out of home buying or will no longer qualify for loans. It would be very difficult to "lose all your money" investing in Portland RE. Still a very hot market.

I've seen one homeless woman in particular at least 3-4 times now who deliberately goes around to trash cans, takes trash out and throws it on the streets. Sad because the city is aesthetically very beautiful, but now it's become like a Van Gogh painting that a climate protester threw canned soup on.

@@atrainradio929 I like how you're pretending I said the word "socialism/communism". Play semantic games with yourself. Call what's going on in Portland "far left thinking", or "mentally retarded politics", or whatever term you'd like. My point is, with roughly 95% reliability, when you walk the streets of a large American city in 2023 and it's overrun with vagrancy, homelessness, open drug markets, indifferent policing of theft, etc., you are walking through a city where most of the prominent politicians are Democrats, and identify as liberals. I don't care what pretentious academic social science ego trip your douchebag comment wants credit for. Tell your mom to give you a sticker or something. In real world terms, the things going on in Portland are what most Americans refer to as "far left". And the fruits of far left politics are routinely the destruction of city livability.
