    I’m glad you noticed, too, Dulce. Bad air quality in low-income neighborhoods is why they fall apart.
    Hard to live in an area when you can’t breathe.

    Right, Minneapolis?

    *I LIVE IN EX COMMUNIST BULGARIA* our cities are filled with thousands of fruit trees – why? *FREE FRUIT*

    every resident of every city gets 4 months of unlimited free fruit – communism, not as bad as they told you it was
