What is happening in Alabama?
So we were in the middle of Alabama, on our way to the state capital of Montgomery one fine afternoon, and we saw a sign for Dothan. Now I’ve heard of Dothan before. I remember it being called one of the poorest places in the state in the past. I’d never seen it before. Nor had I really checked out a really poor small town in Alabama at all.
So I thought I’d pull off of Route 231 and take a detour and see Dothan first hand. And man oh man oh man is this place struggling. This is one of the worst places I’ve ever seen. This is that drive.
Now Dothan has a population of 65,000, so it was hard to imagine that the entire place looks like this. Maybe I just happened to pick the worst area of town. Maybe the whole town looks similar to this. I don’t know. But I will say that in today’s modern America, that this is stunning and this is deplorable. How we allow a community to exist like this is a disgrace. Our nation - the richest of all nations, which gave $10 million dollars - no joke to Pakistan for gender studies, and we can’t fix our cities? We literally give other countries so much money for the dumbest crap and yet here we are, with our own rotting communities filled with good decent people. What is going on in America?
I looked it up. Dothan is the only 20th poorest place in Alabama. There’s way more rundown communities in this state. Does the rest of Alabama look like worse than this? Jesus. This is Dothan. If this doesn’t make you realize how much things need to change here. I think our priorities are in the wrong place.
