re: #27 Belafon
I am from SE Ohio, once the factories moved out, there was not much left. Addiction and a lack of general services destroyed what were once, while very white, were also really decent working class neighborhoods.
I was last up there to try to save my daughter and my grandkids almost 7 yrs ago to the day. Sadly, it didn’t work. What I saw in that area, from Lancaster to Logan Ohio, was heartbreaking and not the same place where my parents grew up and I spent time as a kid. The whole area of Appalachia and the immediate areas around it are a truly fucked up legacy and should be one lesson of far too many why to NEVER trust large corporations to do the right thing ever.
