740 Park Ave, New York City, is home to some of the wealthiest Americans. Across the Harlem River, 10 minutes to the north, is the other Park Avenue in South Bronx, where more than half the population needs food stamps and children are 20 times more likely to be killed. In the last 30 years, inequality has rocketed in the US -- the American Dream only applies to those with money to lobby politicians for friendly bills on Capitol Hill. Click for Full Text!

This is bleeding heart stuff, but I tho't it was interesting and indeed damning that NYC's wealthiest naberhood, a stretch of Park Ave. on the Upper East Side, continues (after a couple of miles) across the river to ameriKa's poorest Congressional district. 700k people live in S. Bronx, 40% of them below the poverty line.
What's the answer? Stop paying certain people to breed, invade and exist for openers. Call off the white genocide campaign. (In other words, jews RAUS.) That's where the blame for the entire mess goes. But don't try to tell the producers of this show that.
More billionaires live at 740 Park Ave. than any other building in the US. wikid: "The building was constructed in 1929 by James T. Lee, the grandfather of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis – Onassis lived there as a child.... The building was officially opened in October 1930, a year after the Great Depression began, and the poor timing was devastating. Even though the New York elite had moved in, the building had failed financially by 1933. It remained in the red for 50 years.[4] It was not until the 1980s that the building's apartments sold for incredibly high prices."
I just love imagining myself in the lap of such luxury, but not associating with those people.
