Yahoo Finance Implies Rockford is #2 American City to be Done For… Duh
Hand us the #1 Trophy already. We need to make more t-shirts!
Rockford, IL – Yahoo Finance published a report listing 10 American cities that will not recover from the Great Recession. The irony is that Rockford never recovered from the late 70s-early 80s recession which began the four decade defeat of a post-industrial American city. Once proud, always poor.
Yahoo Finance joins Forbes and other popular national publications along with a few sane community members who believe it’s one of the most worst American cities to work and live in. It is, but we at RKFD believe it’s one of the funniest American cities. Real, original funny.
Hand us a #1 trophy for once! We need to make more T-shirts.
