"White Flight" in the Jackson MSA

[opebo]

White flight is virtually universal in the US, facilitated by the Interstate Highway boondoggle.  The upper middle working class has imprisoned itself in the automobile to avoid contact with blacks.

Well, in a sense that's true...
"White Flight", which exists elsewhere but is nowhere as bad as in the US, is a prime cause of the ghetto.

In France they have an interesting variation: build hideous ghetto's just outside City Limits

This is preferable - the well off get to live in convenient areas.  In America one's reward for making more money is spending more time in the prison of the automobile.  In general.
