> exactly down the road… im not wowwed by the bright pretty lights of the shinny new casino… im thinking about people that cant get a decent job. manufacturing would give them that. when the steel mills left they needed to get some other kinda production industry here…not sports and entertainment. Pittsburgh will never be white collar no matter how much they try… its a blue collar town. if you and mike what an oasis pittsburgh isnt the place… so maybe u need to move.

🤣

there’s so much irony in this post.

#1. YOU WORK IN SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT!  
#2. Pittsburgh’s economy is now based on healthcare, education, technology, robotics, and financial services. AKA WHITE COLLAR JOBS. There’s no more manufacturing around here. :hsugh:  
#3. It’s already the oasis you apparently fear. I have no problem with manufacturing, but does it really have to be right in downtown Pittsburgh? And don’t tell me to move fucknugget. You’re the one with your head up your ass and refuses to embrace the new, MUCH BRIGHTER, future.
