I don't think Hartford is unique.  Look at what happened to every major city in CT.  They were all manufacturing based which paid a lot of taxes.  Bridgeport,  New Haven, Waterbury, New Britain.   Then the interstate highway system made it easy for folks who still had jobs in cities to commute and go home to the suburbs.  It has been an exodus and now there are many less good paying jobs so no need to commute.  I see the need to bring back manufacturing or high tech well paying jobs.  You cannot build wealth without somewhere creating value added labor (manufacturing, construction,  mining, etc.)  Downsize government and bring back jobs.  We are 22 Trillion plus in national debt and eventually the dollar will no longer be the world reserve currency.  If that day happens we will see inflation that will bring us to our knees.  That picture of the foot (a well dressed man) kicking the can (down the road) is very apropo.  Tick tick tick.................  Ask yourself: Would you invest in any of these cities (without friends in government of course)?
