Many of the very rich are the Techies of the 1980's-90's...and most live in those 10 cities. As I've said before, the Very Rich have built their castles around them, and the middle folks are the yesterdays poorly regarded "merchants" who serve them. The very poor seem to thrive in those cities as well. Generations of the same related families I would venture to guess. It's not that they don't have free health care, free breakfasts for their kids, free schools if they can bestir themselves to go, free food banks, free food stamps, free or very low cost clothes and shoes from charities, coupons for free bus transportation, etc etc....PLUS the infusion of "free from the taxpayers" money giveaways too. The middle folks are the ones who need stimulus if the truth be known. ACORN and related organizations find it easy to screw around with the polls, the census, the registrations to vote, and everything else to skew the votes.... BUT they don't find it very easy to pull the wool over the eyes of folks in the land of the Red States.
