Baltimore city which was founded at 1729, is not facing down some real strategic and management concerns. Overall the city was considered to be on the rising edge of development but a drastic downfall took it below the line of poverty, growth issues, development stoppage and etc. Despite the facts of possessing world’s second largest sea port, this city needs to be treated by a vigilante in order to rescue the realm of Baltimore.
After the early years of the cities formation the government took some steps towards eminent domain or private sectors to step into the field of economy and play their key part. Till 30 years it was deemed under the slums of death considered to be less significant for cities faith. Legislature announced points in order to increase taxation on all properties.
In the recent past Larry Hogan cancelled transit system of Baltimore, Larry was a part of previous government. Though the project required funds of approximately $2.9 billion dollars yet it was suitable enough to establish job openings within and outside the city via rail tracks. Entire city could have superseded the room of poverty, unemployment and other external factors if similar sort of issues had been catered at their earliest.
Recently C.O.O M.R. John Angelos breaks his silence. His statement concludes that the Americans are dying due to poverty and the higher officials should revamp their entire system of policies to blind fold the chaotic situation which is leading towards starvation. Locals are not getting their civil and moral rights which also results in economic downfall.
Economic growth towards downfall
Evidently the Baltimore city people know today relied on series of historic bad lucks. During the era of 1961 which was assumed to brought up the light of hope “The project VI” comprised of interconnecting both east and west Baltimore city via the port harbor. Eminent domain strategy was considered to be the optimistic approach for entire finance and budgeting plan. Creation of John Hoskins hospitals, spacious “Bio parks”, schools, and Maryland University goes in vain when in 1924 the court condemned all comprehensive plans of sustainability of Baltimore city.

Critic pundits formally used to bemoan this event with great sorrow as if the petition was approved years ago it could lead to a developed country whose exact vice versa we are dealing with today. Primarily an everlasting loss of $1.8 billion faced up that illustrates an economy crisis.
All the properties were deemed to be less significant for eminent domain and harbor development. After 30 years on “Kelo” courts verdict the case was reopened and legislatures once again strike out the use of eminent domain in public favor yet the proceedings clearly signifies Baltimore to get ruled out 30 years ago because of being good in public favor.
Years passed on and with no judicial concerns the city turned into a rioted hub nothing else. After the assassination of Martin Luther king chaos blown up, probably the race of discrimination is hitting up the faith of this city as 70% approximately people are blacks.

Factor scrolling towards poverty
According to the reports Winchester/Harlem park is now a prison point, it contains the maximum rate of imprisonment among entire city. Educational factors are directly linked with the criminal bondage activities. As there are lacks of schooling system and educational rights, the toll of committing crimes and offending law and order situation. Allegedly, 52 percent of youth is unemployed and almost 32 % lacks a higher educational degree.
With heartbreaking facts the rate of abandoned houses and community living is shattered. Stats prove that the neighborhood is nothing but a hub of criminal activities. Violent actions provoked on daily basis as Sandtown-Winchester confirm to achieve the highest narcotic or drugs emergency calls. Among all the others U.S cities, Baltimore holds the highest number of poverty rate whenever the census had been taken off.
84% of students are poor enough just to grab their one time meal. Policy makers remain silence on this sadistic approach. Back in 2014 a research was conducted by John hopkins hospital, Baltimore. Final draft confirms that the children who are living for their survival are living a miserable live worst then Nigerians. Yet being a super power of the world U.S government failed to address their locals properly even their basic rights are rare.

Teens are committing crimes to feed their young fellows, instead of books they are holding weapons. A younger age women pregnancy rate is increased and rape cases are reporting usually. Every instance pass and battle of food begins. Fittest one gets the price and death remains the fate of the weak.
Conclusion
Baltimore today would have been a much demanded place to be lived in if the governing policies were prepared in favor of this city. The city is not only lacking education, food, basic right, health, roads etc. yet a massive reason behind the downfall is negligence. With having the highest pregnancy rate in teens, committing suicides, and criminal offends, food starvation, lacks of jobs etc. City of Baltimore is seeking for real heroes to respond at their earliest.
Jobs could be created if investment plans or eminent domain had established. Roads would be linked with east/west Baltimore and outside the city. Today the roads are at their worst and no trade way is possible with the outside world.
Government must focus at their youth as for a nation it’s basic ingredient is youth and when authorities don’t provide them chance of living another day these horrible form of results will be seen each day. Where quarter of cities population is living far beyond the line of poverty what else an individual can do, nothing but hope.
All these concerns must be reopened under the name of law as U.S.A being the powerful country should not show such cold reactions for their countrymen. Once the issue resolves the city can get back their blessing of life and reason to live on. Else the critic pundits believe that a dark world is preparing within.
