Maybe the US should get rid of Tennessee. As a state TN does not produce as much as California. Why is CA maintaining a poor state such as TN? I am from San Jose, CA. We are a city of immigrants. Being in San Jose, the heart of Silicon Valley, is like being in the United Nations. We know how to live with other races, unlike Chattanooga. We don't have the problems you have. In fact, we are so open to immigration that we have an immigrant governor. Maybe you have a deeper problem out there. Your problem is about race and not the economy. Get it together TN.
